Ooma gives me all the capacity of my office phone even on-the-go. It's great being able to receive voicemails straight to my email and creates a seamless transition from office to on-the-go. It also saves me time to be able to receive voicemails directly to my email which I am able to listen to much easier. Would highly recommend!
  • Forwards calls from my office phone to my cell
  • Allows me to listen to voicemails through my email
  • Setup process could be easier to navigate
Ooma is great if you are on the go for your business or have multiple locations. It creates a seamless integration and allows you to never miss an important message or reminder. It also eliminates the need to check your voicemail separately and allows you to check directly from your email for all-in-one capacity.

We utilize Ooma Office as our sole business phone system within our company. We utilize the virtual assistant as well as between 10-30 individual users. One large problem we faced with our previous phone system was its shear cost. Ooma Office has now saved us thousands over the years compared to our old solution, while providing more features than our old solution provided.
  • Adapt to any business style. (Office, Mobile, Remote, etc)
  • Reduces costs while providing a feature rich product.
  • Provides exceptional customer service.
  • Implementation with more 3rd party IP phones
  • Automated scheduling of call forwarding within a user. (e.g. "always forward on weekends")
Ooma Office is a viable solution for any company looking to replace an aging/costly business phone system. Our company was able to reduce our costs while providing a better platform for our employees to communicate.

Office phone system. Cost-effective and feature-rich. So easy to set up and configure. Allows our clients to reach us quickly and leave a message just a quick. So glad that we moved from the big carrier to Ooma!
  • Set-up is easy and quick
  • Lots of great features
  • Cost effective
  • Group - team fax capability
  • Improved headset connectivity
  • Multiple office speed dial lists
Ooma works best in a small office environment, with the owner/administrator being hands-on. Might be more challenging for a larger enterprise.

Ooma Office is used to help our hybrid office. It makes it easy to live transfer to those working at home. There is also a voicemail to email feature that makes checking messages on the road very easy. Virtual reception helps direct phone traffic to the correct employee. Ooma Office helped keep my agency in business through the covid pandemic.
  • Live transfer.
  • Voicemail to email.
  • Virtual reception.
  • Customer service sometimes has issue.
  • Easier explanation of services.
Ooma Office is great for someone on the go. I have the app on my phone to use when out in the field. I also am able to check my voicemails through email. I need to review the features. I have a need for some things that I'm sure they offer.

I use Ooma in the office and on my mobile app. I have never missed a call and love that the voicemails get emailed to me so I can save them and allocate to a file. When I need my techs to have a call that I received, I can easily transfer to them, conference call them or forward the voicemail. Ooma has also allowed me to fax, in those rare occasions, with ease and without the old school machine.
  • Transfers call with ease from base to my cell
  • The fax option is super easy
  • Even when the power goes out, I still get the calls on my cell
  • Allow caller id to transfer over as well
Our techs work on the road. They are never in the office, so the app is perfect for them.

Ooma Office gives us an easy dashboard to manage our faxes, call logs, and extensions. We also use their virtual receptionist to set our operation hours and set away messages. They have been helpful to adjust our operations to the current climate and rising WFH culture.
  • Customer Service
  • Virtual assistant
  • Faxing
  • Adding an admin portal app
Ooma office is great for small-medium businesses that are looking for an affordable way to manage their communications all in one place. They have great options for your WFH team and their administrative portal is easy to use.

Switched from cable provided telephone service to Ooma Office. It allows users to work from home by taking a phone home with them or using their cell phones. Users can also work while traveling using their cell phones. Texting comes in handy at times. Voicemail to Email transcription is helpful also.
  • Allow users to work from practically anywhere
  • Cut down on telephone expense considerably
  • Ability to use cell phones and still show an office number
  • Logging into the app seems slow on Windows and Cell Phones both
  • Call Logging is a little cumbersome to review
  • Texting to other numbers requires adding them as a contact
It is working great for us as users who work remotely and while traveling. My only hesitation in recommending it would be for users without good internet service or good cell phone service one.

The virtual assistant feature is fantastic. You can type out the greeting and it is read by the virtual assistant. All of our calls have been routed to the correct person using this feature. It really has been a game changer for our company, with getting customers to the correct person the first time.
  • Virtual Assistant
  • Voicemails to email
  • easy to transfer or conference calls if necessary
  • better caller id function
If you do not want the mechanical voice of the virtual assistant, you can record your own outgoing greeting. You can also have a call roll to another extension if the person you were trying to call doesn't answer.

Ooma Office has become an integral part of our small business and I can take Ooma Office wherever I go.
  • Communicate using app
  • Communicate via office phone
  • Communicate via voice message
  • International free calls needed
  • Must be able to take anywhere in the world where internet is available
  • Must have robocall blocking as standard
While awaiting an important call for our company, I was able to attend to an emergency trusting that the Ooma Office app will direct the call to my cell phone app and it did. It was a great relief.

I was using another VOIP company for phones and a different company for fax service and was contacted by Ooma. They showed me their program which was less money and free faxes included. I was able to cancel the other two companies and save the entire amount I paid for fax service. Since the covid hit, I have worked from home a lot, and the fact that I can answer calls on my Ooma cell phone app or my laptop computer any time, any place, anywhere allows me to not be in the office, but still receive all my calls. They have cut my communications bill in half. I highly recommend them.
  • Allows me to answer the phone any time and anywhere
  • offers free fax service
  • Gives me the freedom to leave the office and still be connected.
  • I wish there was a way to stop calls that have a spoofed caller ID number.
  • I would like to be able to have different ring tones for my personal cell calls and my business Ooma app calls.
Ooma has worked well for me in all areas because if I have wifi or a cell tower connection anywhere in the world, I can make or receive Ooma business calls. I love the price too! I am totally happy with them and have recommended Ooma to several other businesses and I have not had anyone tell me they have had problems since switching to Ooma.

Ooma acts as my receptionist, which keeps me from having to answer the phone all day.
  • Customer Service
  • Reliability
  • Quality
  • sync directly with Outlook or Gmail contacts
I love that it has an automated receptionist. It's also very helpful that with the right equipment, you can continue using your old phones or no phones at all if that's what you prefer. Currently, I use my PC microphone and speakers to answer calls and don't own an office phone. I also love the phone app so my office phone goes wherever I go.

Ooma Office is our telephone system that we use in the office. It is absolutely crucial to my practice. I have clinics in 3 different locations and another physician uses one of my offices 3 days a week. I have one centralized number that I can forward to whatever office we are in that day and a "virtual receptionist" that includes a phone tree before the phone even rings in the office that directs the other physician's patients to his number. It allows me to check messages even on the weekends and when we are not in the office.
  • Versatile
  • Cost-effective
  • Internet based and allows for mobility
  • Easy to use app that allows me to forward calls and check messages from my cell phone from anywhere
  • Customer service takes several calls to fix a complicated issue
Very well suited to small businesses because it is very cost effective and can be managed from anywhere. I have forwarded calls and checked messages from the Carribean and Europe! I can't imagine in a scenario, however, where it would not be well suited! Any business that uses phones or faxes would find this useful.

Ooma office allows me to manage multiple independent client organizations with one central solution at an affordable price in an extremely professional manner. It has been a significant asset to my small business given the importance of communications in todays world. It’s perfect for multi client businesses with a single greeting but not as strong if you need know which number is being dialed or different greetings are needed.

Ooma is pretty good and cheaper than having a landline service agreement with a cable or internet company. It is very easy to use and it has saved me money. I also love the application, which allows me to answer my phone wherever I am. I do not have to be stuck at my office to conduct business, since I can call Clients, via the Ooma application, on the go. The virtual assistant feature is a plus.
  • Virtual Assistant.
  • Call Transfer.
  • App.
  • Texting Feature.
Ooma is well suited for any business that wishes to save money, those who need to be in and out of the office and still take calls and conduct business on the go, and for those that want to contact clients without using their own personal number, since it always appears as if you are calling from your office number.

Ooma Office has an excellent virtual receptionist that you use to set up your office phone, use your business hours and it automatically redirects your calls, there’s an app to use which makes your business so much easier to run, creating a virtual office, especially when you have employees out sick or on vacation!
  • Virtual office/virtual receptionist
  • Redirects calls
  • Receives messages
  • Earn more rewards
  • Lower monthly service
  • Continue to be great
Suppose you are unable to get to your physical office, just open the app on your smartphone and there are all your calls & messages! I don’t have any complaints at this time however we all could use a lower monthly bill tho it’s very affordable at its cost currently. Plus the rewards you can earn gift cards are truly awesome!

Ooma office is the best investment that I have made for my business. It is very helpful that I route my business calls to my personal cell office and the virtual receptionist is a great feature. It also saves me a lot of money with me being able to send an e-fax from my Ooma office subscription. The customer service associates at Ooma are always extremely helpful and courteous. I highly recommend Ooma office to any business. It is a great asset and is very cost-effective.

  • fast efficient response to troubleshooting issues

Ooma Office helped us streamline our phone infrastructure. It allows us to easily scale, add numbers and stay connected. The virtual assistant also makes it very easy for us to keep our customers up to date and reduce the workload on our staff. It's easy for all of office staff to use and we're able to customize the virtual assistant, hours, incoming call menu, and saving our employees time.

  • Fax could be better

I currently use the Ooma Office platform as my standalone VOIP setup. I've changed offices a few times in the past couple of years and needed a VOIP solution in case I couldn't port over a traditional phone number. Ooma Office has solved that issue for me nicely.
  • Cost effective
  • Solid call quality
  • Easy interface
  • Customer service leaves a little to be desired
  • Calls will randomly drop for no rhyme or reason despite having a steady internet connection
I can only speak for myself being a solo business owner but I would think Ooma Office would work well for just about any organization that is looking for a cost-effective VOIP solution. I can't speak to its effectiveness for larger companies, as I'm just not sure.

Ooma office took what was a very frustrating aspect of our company and simplified it. They also were able to reduce our costs by about $500 per month! The 24 hour support has never left us stranded with problems outside of business hours. We were able to implement our new virtual assistant for call routing very easily and now do not experience misrouted calls or calls with no one there. Robo calls have almost wholly been eliminated.
  • Call Routing
  • Reducing Costs
  • Building extensions
  • I have yet to experience anything that I didn't like in Ooma!
If you are trying to eliminate the need for a live receptionist, Ooma is for you! The automated call routing with the virtual receptionist, provides a professional routing menu for customer to choose where/who they would like to be transferred to easily, just by listening to the prerecorded message. Before our company was plagued with tons of "dead" calls with no one on the other end. Those have almost been eliminated!

Ooma [Office] is our company-wide VoIP service. We are tiny but it allows us a chance to communicate with both staff and patrons in ways that help facilitate all our products and services quickly and easily. It is a well-serviced product that has helped us get every product and need quickly filled and all problems solved fast. Their service and pricing is amazing.
  • Affordable pricing for small businesses
  • 24/7 customer support
  • Easy web function for low-tech employees
  • Bare bones services
  • Hardware selection is minimal
  • No centralized message center
Ooma [Office] is the perfect product if your operation is looking to save money or [does] not need a whole slew of extra features. It isn't going to do things that other VoIP offers, but what it does offer will solve all your needs. It is a very straightforward service that gives you exactly what you need at a price you want, and won't inundate you with extra features that can be confusing.
