Zoom Phone
Considered Both Products
Zoom Phone
Chose Zoom Phone
Ease of use, pricing was much better, we had Zoom conferencing already so it made using the phone solution easy as we can use the same Zoom Client. The features were more robust than anything else we had seen for a cloud based telephone system. The troubleshooting tools are …
Chose Zoom Phone
Zoom Phone was much easier to manage and use than Cisco. It also allowed us to get off premises and into the cloud. We chose Zoom to move into the future of phone systems.

Zoom Phone/contact center was much easier to setup and use than TalkDesk. It was also quite a bit less …
Chose Zoom Phone
CloudCall had worse call quality, more dropped calls, and no texting function. All three things improved when switching to Zoom Phone.
Chose Zoom Phone
Compared to Mitel, Zoom is a next-generation phone system that is significantly easier to use than Mitel or Teams.
Chose Zoom Phone
They are very comparable.
Chose Zoom Phone
Zoom Phone was the best value and had the richest features. Also, the implementation of Zoom Phone was much easier than the competing products.
Chose Zoom Phone
Has all the features plus Zoom Meeting integration. Pricing is very competitive. Zoom Webinar is a cut above similar products, so having them all in the same family makes it easier for our staff, most of whom are not technical.
Chose Zoom Phone
As I mentioned before, the interoperability between Zoom Phone communication channels with Chat and Meeting makes this a good user and customer experience.
Chose Zoom Phone
Zoom outpaces most of the other companies by miles. Teams is a 2nd but it's not even close. Cost of Zoom for longer meetings, more features might turn people off - but it shouldn't because of the actual features and integration (neat bar, Zoom rooms in 365, etc) - others may …
Chose Zoom Phone
Users did not like the Jabber chat...found it hard to use and un reliable on mobile.
Chose Zoom Phone
We are in the evaluation phase therefore the Zoom sample facility to incorporate Zoom Phone licenses into our contract facilitated the testing of this service. Avaya telephony is very robust, but we want to unify the collaboration tools within the organization, so it was ruled …
Chose Zoom Phone
We were using Google Meet prior to Zoom, it didn't have problems any, but just the overall experience of using it was not that pleasant. We switched to Zoom for better Quality in the video as well as video both. Zoom also gives a lot of options during screen share which is very …
Chose Zoom Phone
Zoom Phone has more features that allow our team to work cohesively. We can have all of our team logged in to all of the phone lines we manage, instead of one person on each line at a time. This way, one person is able take calls from whichever line as they come in rather than, …
Chose Zoom Phone
The big draw for us to Zoom Phone is that they shook up the market. They entered the phone market by taking their overwhelming success in video conferencing, and bringing that innovation and skill to designing a game changing phone system. There is really not much difference …
Chose Zoom Phone
Zoom Phone, much like the proper desktop application, is a significant improvement over Skype. While a lot of the clunky and bloated sluggishness over the desktop version of Skype is lessened on the mobile application, the amount of embedded advertising and lackluster …
Chose Zoom Phone
Zoom phone is SO MUCH EASIER to use than Vonage. It's easy to track calls, the interface is super clean (Vonage looks like they haven't updated since the mid-2000s). Much easier to find company contacts in the virtual directory in Zoom. Plus, the ability to dial out directly …
Chose Zoom Phone
It was a much cheaper option for us in terms of purchase of the license. It was easier to also have 1 vendor since we were already using Zoom for our conference calls. Adding Zoom Phone just made sense. Our employees travel so they were not at their desks to answer calls, now …
Chose Zoom Phone
RingCentral and Zoom are very similar, and I am a fan of both. We ended up choosing Zoom because of how much we liked them for their Zoom Meetings product we've used for years now. It just always worked compared to WebEx, Gotomeeting, Fuze, Skype, Teams, etc. So reliability …

Zoom Phone is great for remote work. It's pretty user friendly. You can easily transfer calls to those who have Zoom extensions programmed into the address book. Obviously, this would apply to most tech nowadays, but call quality can suffer during bad weather.

Pros
Zoom
  • Transcribes voicemails. Great for those verbose folks that leave long voicemails.
  • Loud and clear volume quality! Great in a busy office with lots of people talking.
  • Easy to keep track of who has called me. Has Caller ID which is helpful.

Cons
Zoom
  • Voicemail handling for queues and groups can't have their own shared voicemail box.
  • They recently starting limiting how many greetings you can have per user, so you have to do some annoying workarounds by setting up additional users to accomplish it when you have a number of ACD.
  • Does not yet support texting.
  • I wish they had built in text to speech to quickly build new greetings or phone tree options when needed.
  • You can't just assign a phone number to a call queue or group. You have to use a specific user. Fortunately, the cost is reasonable per user so its not a big problem, but annoying none-the-less.
  • The Salesforce integration could be better, I hope they improve it. For example, voicemails and call logs don't show up in the native lightning case feed, but as tasks.
  • When callers call, I wish it would pop up how they called and what tree they went through. So we could see what number they called into and perhaps what menu options they used.
  • I'd love to be able to ask them questions to gather info for reps answering phones when appropriate.

Usability
Zoom
Zoom Phone has a very sleek design which makes it very easy to operate and use both in the setting up of and interacting in a meeting space. That being said, certain features can seem a bit crowded while trying to screen share or display video which somewhat defeats the purpose of the application as compared to a standard conference call.

Zoom
Support have been great during the time for implementing Zoom Phones to our team of 50 people. There were times where they kept supporting us through links but more and more we had actual people getting back to us via emails so we are very happy overall. The product is so great, too.

The big draw for us to Zoom Phone is that they shook up the market. They entered the phone market by taking their overwhelming success in video conferencing, and bringing that innovation and skill to designing a game changing phone system. There is really not much difference among the other systems, except maybe their interface. They're a dime a dozen. Zoom does things differently, focusing in on the needs of the end users, and delivers a solid system that is worry free for I.T. departments

Return on Investment
Zoom
  • We're better able to work together as a team answering phones multiple people can be logged in to answer at the same time.
  • The voicemail transcription feature helps with sharing messages to different departments.
  • Overall, we're able to answer more calls and have fewer callers being sent to voicemail.
