Grasshopper vs. MightyCall

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.

I like there is a special notifier that signalizes me about customers’ answers. I’m able to multitask using the platform, to call, and to see-through other tabs to gain important information for customers. They are some failures in App operation which are needed to be corrected. And sometimes my phone number falls into spam.

• 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.

• 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.

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.

The first contact center solution they tried to implement was based on the Asterisk system.This lasted for the first two or three months, the implementation was actually done “on the knee”. Through the same channel that we use now, the percentage of missed calls was about 35%, and this is one of the parameters that we had to improve - But the main thing that we had to do was to increase the efficiency of order processing, which was too low at first" .Solution selectionIn the process of choosing a solution for the contact center, I considered Cisco and Nortel hardware and software solutions, as well as MightyCall Enterprise software solutions.“The MightyCall Enterprise solution is designed to create pre-configured contact center packages for different applications and industries. Other important advantages of this solution for us were the flexibility to customize according to our customer requirements and the price/functionality ratio. Thus, we chose MightyCall Enterprise for our purposes.

• 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.
