Phone.com is a no-brainer. The cost savings over a POTS or in-house PBX system are tremendous. The affordability added on top of the easy to use and deploy features make Phone.com the best choice. Phone.com is well-suited for situations where you need other-than-standard call holding, call routing, and other similar advanced call features.

Cons
Phone.com
  • Phone.com has been excellent with support and I can not think of any areas for improvement with regards to that
  • Phone.com could provide more graphical assistance when programming call routing. A visual indication of the flow of a call should be presented and would come in handy when planning out difficult ques/call routes

CollabIP, Inc. (Tethr)
  • It would be very useful if it not only made call recordings but the transcription of the call, to have better access to the communication.
  • If it could be integrated with social networks it would be great, so we could also monitor the behavior of our customers through that medium.
  • If I had a database of contacts and customers, it would also be very useful and would facilitate my work.

  • Thanks to the fact that we have been able to have greater and better control of calls, chats, emails, and other interactions with customers, we were able to improve the performance of our agents, correct errors that were in the conversations, and make good manuals and user guides for the agent to know how to deal with customers, expanding our numbers and increasing our sales.
