Overall Satisfaction with Google Voice
Our team utilizes Google Voice for several key reasons. It helps to address the issue of having out of state phone numbers, allowing for you to pick an area code where we primarily do business as well as keep a layer of separation from private phone numbers for messaging and voice messaging.
- Google Voice makes it easy to establish a unique phone number without having to purchase a new line.
- The transcription feature upon receiving a voicemail allows me to funnel the message through email so I can get a semi-accurate reading of the voice message I received.
- I also like how Google Voice lets those who contact me for business send messages that go through Google instead of a private text message to my phone number. I appreciate the privacy that it afforded me and my team.
- The voice transcriptions are not always accurate, they could certainly improve in interpreting the voice to text.
- I'd like to see an easier user web interface or app for this. Google has so many features, it's a bit challenging to navigate to set up or modify after I've been away from it for a while.
- I think it's easy to miss a Google Voice call as it doesn't always seem to ring enough before going to voicemail.
- Google Voice has saved me time while screening calls for business allowing me to prioritize interruptions during the day.
- I would guess that if I had set up a business line it would have cost upwards of 50+ per month plus the extra cost per cell phone, and that multiplied by 12 months and the 7+ years I've used it is in the thousands of savings.
- One of the main impacts Google Voice has had is a local area code that helps give the impression that we are local, even though I have an area code from a state away.
Considering that Google Voice integrates well into the other Google services, it has clear benefits when sharing and accessing call information. Skype is always a pain to use for calls b/c, not everyone had it, but Google Voice works with any phone and most people already have a Google account.
