    Telnyx is well suited for general phone number provisioning as they have a large pool to choose from. There is certainly room to grow with fax troubleshooting.

    The system does more than I've even had the pleasure to implement. I appreciate the staff and the system. It's stable and dynamic enough to meet any companies needs.

    Pros
    Telnyx
    • Price Matters for the flourishing organization like us. Telnyx [is] affordable to us.
    • Telnyx is very generous in terms of providing regular updates through webinar , free credits, real time support . One most important is that they are not in hurry of closing the account because of minus balance.
    • Telnyx Portal is pretty easy to navigate and manage the customized settings.
    • Among other giant SIP providers I found Telnyx with very modern and humble customer approach.

    • System uptime is tremendous, I almost forget it exists on my server rack.
    • Desktop software is very easy to learn, I can train new receptionists within a few minutes and they don't have to memorize extensions or rely on a sheet of numbers
    • Call recording works well, I am able to find calls based on a number of criteria and it finds the calls fast and I can easily export them for use.

    Cons
    Telnyx
    • Number testing: Currently I need to call our fax numbers manually to confirm fax tones. It would be useful to test numbers in bulk from the portal.
    • Troubleshooting: Currently, samples are needed for each fax transmission when there are issues. And those samples need to be within 24-48 hours. It would be useful if Telnyx could do a health check out proactively to gather information on high failure counts prior to customer reports.
    • Transparency with system issues: We've run into scenarios where we wanted information on system-wide fax failures, but when the issues were resolved we didn't get root cause analysis.

    • There are a few interfaces for working with the system and it can be daunting to learn
    • They charge quite a bit annually and if you miss an update they charge you additional fees to catch up.

    Usability
    Telnyx
    They utilize a private IP network back end that makes SIP configuration for inter-carrier operation difficult because they assume that projecting their private network outside is ok.

    Support Rating
    Telnyx
    They are providing services using a Freeswitch system behind a NAT router and they expect carriers to deal with their NAT network. Their support team does not seem to understand that problems caused by exposing a NAT switch to the Internet at large.

    Easy of use and better prices. Outstanding customer service. Variety of services in telecommunication needs. Easy use of interface even for not experienced users. Migration of SIP numbers is easier. Reporting is very easy to use and customizable for our specific needs, so we can keep track of costs in an easy way

    Return on Investment
    Telnyx
    • Due to easy SIP truncation the cost of customer approach has become very convenient internationally. We got a so much scaling to play on large customer base. And large base makes sense of large positive ROI.
