  • ROI has been great
  • Very Cost effective
  • Standard Features are great
We selected Nextiva Business Phone Service due to the features offered and the cost associated with it. The ability to add users and equipment costs vs other VOIP Service Providers. It works very well for us and we have been very pleased with their service and support staff, sales staff when needed. We have recommended their service to others in our industry.

Operations Manager does all the setup, implementation, and training for the Nextiva VOIP Phones. All our employees have voip phones from Nextiva Business Phone Service and a few different types.

We are a small business that needed reliable service, user friendly phones and a reasonable cost to get set up and going. As we grow we add a user and device and continue to renew our contract with them due to our satisfaction thus far. We have had great service with Nextiva Business Phone Service and will continue with them.
No we have nothing but great things to say about Nextiva Business Phone Service. They have been wonderful and helpful when needed. They offer a great product at a reasonable cost and we have been very satisfied with their service. As we grow our business and add users and devices they are more than fair in the pricing and support for their service.
No was done by Agency Owner and was done with the help of Nextiva Support and Sales team. Went very well and has been working great since then. Was originally only two phones and then we continue to add to that. We did not have any reported issues and was a great experience for our Agency and Small Business.

Every time we have contacted their support department either via phone call, chat message feature or even email, they have resolved all our issues. We had one issue with a phone that they were not able to fix and they sent us a replacement phone immediately and the replacement phone was ready to go when added to the network and only had to assign the user to the new device.
I am not aware of a premium support program or product. We have just a normal support agreement with their service and we have always been helped when needed in a timely fashion. We use the Chat Feature a lot so we can multitask and it's been great. I save the support "log" for future reference and can sometimes fix an issue myself if it's a settings issue, etc.
No
Can not isolate it to just one time. I have received exceptional support on most of the support issues I have reported and needed assistance with. I have not received a bad tech support technician or employee to date. I have worked with Tech Support, Billing Dept and Sales and all employees have been friendly, knowledgeable and great thus far.
Is a very user Friendly, easy VOIP System and Service. Phones are easy to learn and use and we have a few different types of phones in our Agency. When needed we add a user and assign to a device and with in a few minutes its up and running. The training for a new user is very quick as most of the features are obvious to understand.
  • Day to Day use is very easy
  • Common Functions are clearly shown and easy to do
  • Covers most features a daily user needs

They have Nextiva One which is an app that can be used to call and or receive an incoming phone call. The app also has other features like chat etc. We use it sometimes but its there when needed. They have been adding and enhancing it recently and it continues to get better with each update.

The company I work with uses Nextiva Business Phone Service's business phone service and is set up to use throughout the entire company. I am able to access my missed phone calls and listen to phone messages just by logging into Nextiva Business Phone Service's website using my lap top while working remote. It is very convenient and hassle free!
  • Easy access using the website
  • Hassle free and convenient
  • Provides excellent customer service & support
  • When making a call using the Nextiva Business Phone Service app on my smart phone, the number doesn't dial direct by pressing on the "phone image."
Returning employee phone calls and accessing my voice mail when working remote. We have at least 1,100 employees registered using Nextiva Business Phone Service's business phone service.

I started using Nextiva Phone service about 4 years ago. I love the service and how easy it is to use. That is the biggest reason we switched our company to them. The ease and the customer service. Both excellent! I have never received a complaint by our clients and that is what I judge any service with. If my clients are happy, I am VERY happy!
  • They get back to you quickly if there is an issue with your service or if you have a question.
  • It is easy to do and takes very little time.
  • I was able to download the app on my mobile and laptop which makes it very easy to do from anywhere.
  • Only complaint is when you try to use the online assistant, it can take a while to get to you but it's not really been that bad and if I can't wait, I will just call and get them right away.
I have already recommended the service to many other companies, and they have switched. The company my daughter works for were looking for a great service, I gave them Nextiva, and they have been using for a couple of years now.

  • It makes it where I do not have to sit by my computer all day
  • It sends the calls to whoever I need it to and that makes my life easier.
They are the best or I would switch. We had other companies but this was by far the best for our needs. The cost is reasonable and we feel it serves us great.

Because it's easy! Nothing else matters to me!

We use Nextiva Business Phone Service as our main phone system. We replaced 3 land lines that we getting more expensive and the sound quality was getting worse. The sound quality with Nextiva Business Phone Service is far superior and the monthly bill is about 80% less than what we were paying for our land lines.
  • Call Quality
  • Price
  • Ease of Use
  • Great customer service
  • I haven't found any yet
I think Nextiva Business Phone Service is a great phone system. Calls can be taken on a computer, desk phone, of routed to your cell phone. We have a receptionist answer the phone and she seamlessly transfers calls to the appropriate person.

Nextiva Business Phone Service customer support is very good. You do not need to have much skill to support it on your own with their help.
  • Answering and placing phone calls
  • We now have an automated answering setup after hours that we did not have before.
The cost, call quality, and ease of use make it a very easy decision to renew with Nextiva.
Yes
We replaced analog land lines with Nextiva Business Phone Service.
  • Scalability
  • Ease of Use
After cost, ease of use was the most important requirement for our solution. Everyone in the office had to be able to use the solution regardless of the level of comfort and knowledge of technology. Nextiva fit the criteria perfectly.
When I first began the process, Nextiva Business Phone Service was not even on my radar. I was looking at 2 other services. I was almost ready to make a decision when someone suggested I look at Nextiva Business Phone Service. Once I did, I never looked back. If I had is to over again, I definitely would have given Nextiva Business Phone Service a look from the very begining.
Nextiva Business Phone Service assigned an on-boarding team to help me implement the phone system. They asked me a few question about how we would be using the system and set everything to meet our implementation. They also took care of porting our phone number from our previous phone company so we could still use them with Nextiva Business Phone Service. The process was fast and painless.
  • Implemented in-house
No
Change management was minimal
  • The implementation process was very smooth. We had no significant issues.
  • Online Training
The training we received from Nextiva Business Phone Service was thorough, and detailed. It also did not take very long.
Nextiva Business Phone Service support has been great. They answered my questions in a timely manner. There was only 1 time that I did not get a satisfactory solution but it was not a major issue and did not affect the performance of the system.
I did not purchase premium support. Nextiva Business Phone Service is pretty easy to set up and the standard customer support was more than up to the challenge of helping me with the few issues I had.
No
Nextiva Business Phone Service support has always been exceptional so far. I had purchased an analog adapter for our paging system. The adapter did not work. Nextiva Business Phone Service customer support worked with me to try and get the adapter working remotely. When they were unsuccessful, the sent me a replacement and now I'm up and running.
Nextiva Business Phone Service system is very usable. We have desk phones, that were included at no cost. The function just as one would expect from an office phone system. I can also answer my calls from my PC and even on my cell phone if I have to leave the office.
  • answer phone call anywhere with the mobile app
  • making call from the desk phone.
  • viewing call history and contact information on the PC app.
  • I have not found any functions to be difficult or cumbersome.
Yes
The mobile interface works great. Easy to take calls on my cell phone, see whose calling, and view my call history in the mobile app.
We have not yet needed top scale up our phone system yet, but I can tell that it will be very quick and effortless to do so when the need arises.
We have not yet experienced any issues the Nextiva Business Phone Service availability. It has always worked as needed.
Nextiva Business Phone Service performance is great. The call quality is much better than our old analog land lines at a fraction of the cost.

It is our primary phone provider throughout the organization. It is used to send and receive phone calls. It addresses business problems such as identifying caller ID and tracking calls.
  • Makes calls
  • App works
  • Caller ID
  • Can't use Bluetooth headsets.
It is well suited in sending and receiving phone calls as well as identifying who is calling. It is less suited for using Bluetooth headphones to make calls. I would really like to use my wireless headphones to make calls so that I don't have to wear a bulky headset or hold a phone. This is a huge pain point for me.

  • Positive impact on ROI.
It is good for phone calls but it needs to include Bluetooth headsets.
Support has been good so far. You can find information on the web fairly easily, but it could be better.
I have not used any other similar products.
