Grasshopper vs. Koncert

Grasshopper is well suited for basic needs of texting in and out as well as calling out if you would like to avoid using your personal line. It also eliminates the need to have a dedicated land land in your office or business. You can obtain a vanity number and forward calls through grasshopper.

This is a great tool for heavy outbound teams, call centers, and others who need a greater reach. With integration into the right sales enablement platforms, it's a great tool in reaching the target market. It makes life so much more efficient for reps, who can do in 1 hour what might otherwise take them a week of dialing 10 or 11 digits every time

• I like that there are differing voicemails for each extension, to keep up with the image of calling a separate line.
• I love the voicemail text emails. I believe we pay a little extra, but worth every penny for those urgent calls while I am in a meeting.
• The cost is very reasonable for the value added to our company.

• Click Dialer allows us to record our own calls for coaching and Quality Control purposes

• It would be nice to have the ability to transfer some calls to another Grasshopper IVR, for those customers who mistakenly dial the wrong number (we have two incoming numbers, one for corporate and one for sales).
• Likewise, it would be nice to have the ability to forward to a toll-free number, which would have allowed us to work around the inability to transfer between IVRs (see above).
• Lastly, it would be great to have an 'emergency' switch setting (default off but could be toggled on) that would let us override all IVR settings and transfer all incoming calls elsewhere (either to a direct dial or toll free number) for those rare times when we cannot take any calls (such as a weather emergency OR the one time each year we take all of our staff on a retreat) - that would allow us to send all calls to a backup answering service rather than just voicemail.

• UX - The interface is easy to understand, but not the most visually appealing.

The admin functions are kind of confusing in the old interface which was my most recent experience on the admin side.

When I was setting up my account I contacted support a couple of times. They were also very professional, personable, and helpful. Their response is prompt and thorough. I'm confident I can get any question answered as well as help with any issue I might have. That's pretty important to me.

I have not used any other phone services like Grasshopper. I know that there is another option out there called Ruby, which is more like a virtual receptionist but since I did not try it out I cannot compare the two. When I started my company I found the services that Grasshopper offers to be perfect. It still works for us and we have no need to change to anything else right now.

We came from using connect and sell after around 1.5 years. It basically came down to customer service. Their dialing capabilities and custom settings are very similar, both integrate very well with Salesforce and allow us to reach out to prospects, but ConnectLeader's customer support is amazing. If an issue occurs, we can easily submit a ticket and they will get back to us within minutes with a solution or acknowledgement that they're working to get the issue resolved.

• It's allowed us to keep cost down. Other phone systems can seriously get outrageous in implementation and monthly fees!
• It's allowed our team the confidence to work in locations outside of the office and still be seen as professionals.
• It's decreased the amount of time spent on unwanted sales calls via the call screening application.

• We've been able to multiply our outbound conversations and appointments significantly with this tool. We saw pipeline begin to grow meaningfully.
