Lots of features with abuse issues

Vetted Review

Bandwidth.com provides a number of affordable services. Unfortunately, they refer abuse complaints to their resellers, and many resellers abuse the system. I myself have received repeated spam phone calls about car warranties and the like, but bandwidth.com support does not deactivate the customer or reseller account after repeated requests. Think twice before supporting a company with policies such as these.

Bandwidth -- Voice programmatically done right!
We currently utilize Bandwidth among other carriers as a product support out platform. Getting voice traffic in/out as well as text messaging requires a partner. Bandwidth is a great partner.

Bandwidth Can Save You Money
Bandwidth is used by the whole organization for number ordering, toll-free services, call routing, etc. We moved to Bandwidth in a decision for cost savings as being a CLEC can be very costly when considering interconnection charges, trunk charges, etc.

Bandwidth -- Top Shelf Service
We used Bandwidth for the majority of our origination across the entire organization. We were a telecom network and they were an integral part of our business.
We found their network to be reliable, the porting department capable -- more capable than most -- and their troubleshooting to be top drawer when we did have an issue.

Bandwidth.com Rocks
Bandwidth.com is a CLEC. My company resells their numbers and service for VoIP communication. The whole company utilizes Bandwidth.com, but I interface mainly with phone numbers including number porting. We are able to order and port numbers through BW and resell to our customers. They have contacts and communication with other CLEC and LEC carriers to be able to port amongst each other.

We use them extensively for call origination, termination, e911, Dynamic 911, SMS (SMPP), and CNAM lookup. We use them as a provider that handles all of these things for our customers. They provide a reliable service that we are able to leverage.
