    Likelihood to Recommend
    Vonage
    Vonage Business Communications excels in scenarios requiring seamless remote work, such as virtual teams and remote workers. It's also ideal for businesses needing reliable disaster recovery solutions. However, it may be less appropriate for very small businesses with minimal communication needs or those with limited budgets, as the comprehensive features might be more than necessary.

    The best way to use it is to make calls to the customer's numbers or to receive calls from them. I think the oddest way to use it is to make calls to your colleagues.

    Pros
    Vonage
    • Eliminates physical phone consoles that can be pricey and unnecessary for staff.
    • Has a companion app that allows you to use your personal cell phone to check messages or make calls.
    • The desktop application is easy to use and has a number of customizable settings so that the app can be minimized but alert you of incoming calls.

    Cons
    Vonage
    • The extension can only have three devices which is difficult if you work in multiple locations. Your cell phone is one of the three, so you really only get two. I have three office locations that I work out of and it would be nice to have my extension at each.

    Usability
    Vonage
    I thought it had very practical and useful usability. It has a clean and simple interface with large fonts that make it easy to read. It isn't particularly difficult, although figuring out some operations may be a bit challenging. For the most part though, it isn't very difficult to use

    We hardly have any issues with it to where we need to call them. There was a point where our connections across the board were terrible and it held us up in production quite a bit but since then things have been pretty simple and streamlined.

    We believe Vonage Business Cloud is best for our organization over the AT&T and the Verizon platforms for several reasons including price, ease of use, connectivity, and other options. Since we have implemented this solution along with newer Polycom phones, we have had very few issues with our phones or our phone platform.

    Return on Investment
    Vonage
    • Cut down phone hardware expense since the soft phone is free and easier to use.
    • Text is becoming a more important and effective way to reach clients. Some will not answer a call or accept voicemail but respond quickly to text messages.
    • Allows me to work from anywhere with smart phone app saving hours at work.
