Net2Phone vs. RingEX

As the price is so low and the quality is good, you can't really fault anything plus, they provide the best SMS service, with high sound quality; nothing compares to the price, and they also provide ongoing customer support.

A basic phone system with all of the "extras" makes a small business look much more significant. Their growth into AI features is fantastic and can be used to reduce the effort of call management dramatically. While pretty much like all of them, voicemail is easy to work with. You'd probably need an administrator to manage personnel changes in a larger environment.

Incentivized

• Rolls calls over to multiple phones in succession after a designated number of rings.
• Allows full access to voicemail and all settings through the app on your cell phone.
• One set same bill every month. No more long distance charges!
• Easy to block phone numbers (robocalls)
• Individual user login and setup for personalized functions
• Easy to use personalized hold music

Incentivized

• Chat and Messaging - Conversations are easy to search, topics can be pinned or bookmarked, and groups are easy to create and administer.
• Phone - The core functionality works very well allowing voice, txt/sms, and faxing for all users. Administration is generally fairly easy as well.
• Mobile Client - the mobile app offers all of the same functionality as the desktop or web client.
• Video - Video calls make it easy to share screens with other users and includes a lot of tools for planning.

Incentivized

• I think at performance level it is still to be improved as many time we face hang issues but i think that can be imrpoved soon by the company
• Having different configuration UIs on Web/App/Cloud, where it makes difficult to remmeber the exact places where to make changes. THere should be some syncing in configuration options
• service support to be improved.

Incentivized

• Customer support is rudimentary. They should improve tier 1 customer support's ability to understand our needs rather than asking customers to reinstall the app
• Revolving door of account managers, which causes loss of continuity in discussing opportunities
• Analytics is not complete. Details about faxing and web meetings is missing.

We are grandfathered into our unlimited toll-free minutes plan. We are very unlikely to switch because of that. It has been the major factor saving us a lot of money compared to switching to other solutions. I don't know any other company that still offers these unlimited plans.

They were working on updating a few of the modules while we were going live, so this made usability difficult to train on once they did go live with those changes. Now that the changes are in place, we have really enjoyed the usability of the platform

We recently had nearly an entire day of downtime where the RIngCentral network was experiencing issues with incoming and outgoing calls. In the past year there have been more service related issues than ever before, which makes me wonder if RingCentral network is not robust enough to handle all the users

Incentivized

Occasional bandwith issues. In addition to this, I have one individual whose calls are blocked. We were not able to determine whether this was a RingEX or a carrier issue.

Call-in support is fantastic. I have never called in and had it taken more than 30 minutes to resolve our issue. Email support is terrible. You will likely go 24+ hours until you hear back and the response is likely a canned one. I personally prefer the email or chat support option, but find myself calling instead because the email support experience is so poor.

Incentivized

I really didn't know all the capabilities

If someone has an existing system I tell them to keep that running initially and keep RingEX separate initially until the system is configured and tested to one's satisfaction. After testing and configuration is completed, then roll over the main phone numbers to the new RingEX system. I've seen one person who immediately flipped over to RingEX without properly configuring/testing the software and had many issues with missed customer calls until I helped him sort out his configuration.

Price, availability when ordering it, start-up amount of users

Incentivized

There is a more reliable connection and communication. The dashboard is easier to use, and the reports that can be generated are more in tune with our business needs. It is easy to review calls and pull them, which was much harder with Vonage.

Incentivized

not to sign up for it or give them any money for a product that does not work

We have 75 users and 85 phones on the system and have yet to have any noticeable outages. The system just works all of the time without issues. Our old VOIP system on Voyant would go out all the time for multiple hours. RingEX is much more stable and reliable.

Incentivized

• Hard to quantify.
• We seem to get more clear voice mails
• The ability to get an email when you miss a call and can access your voice mail from anywhere helps with managing time

Incentivized

• Enabling the team to streamline inbound and outbound calling strategy has increased productivity by at least 30%.
• It improved internal collaboration by enabling the team to communicate effectively and clearly in real-time.
• Improved level of professionalism that we could showcase to our clients, intangible benefit.
