It did not support my international calls and I was not happy with their service provided.

Evaluating Fonality and Competitors

Yes - grass hopper - quality and service was not satisfactory and it did not meet our standards
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
Product feature - One of the most important thing that I was looking for in a VOIP service is voice clearance and international conferencing together with detailed call montering. I was able to achieve all these in fonality that too in a great price. I pretty much had a bad experience with my previous choice so I was cautiously choosing fonality which absolutely did not disappoint me at all. I will defenitely recommend this for my other deparments in this concern,
I will still go with fonality for the quality they provide and the customer service offered by them. I was so impressed by the way my issues were resolved.

Fonality Implementation

Quality provided was good but it was hard for us due to time differences and our back office team was off shore at that point of time.
Change management was a major issue with the implementation - cost cutting and better quality of products. Third party phone was replaced by VOIP. Tried Grass hopper and was not happy with it. Then found fonality and was very happy with the service and quality.
  • transfer of phone numbers
  • software installation
  • training

Because of their customer support and their attention for details in our problems that we face during our initial stage. We simply love fonality just for the way we are treated when we reach them with our fonality issues - they take it seriously and resolve it as early as possible and the most important part is we dont need to keep on insisting them to do so.

Yes - If my project budjet support for premium package of fonality means then I will go for it without any hesitation because me and my team just love their services.
Absolutely. We had a conference call with our new clients from UK. And it was just four days since we installed fonality, we had no idea about conference bridging as we had the seminar scheduled only for the day after. But when we reached the customer support with our problem and informed them about the time frame .... customer service surprised us by helping us out in no time - stood by our side and resolved it and made sure that our job was done and we were happy.
