Overall Satisfaction with Grasshopper

We use Grasshopper for our expansion businesses to have dedicated numbers and call management without brand confusion for our other businesses. It is the sole phone contact source for two of our eCommerce endeavors.
  • Incoming and outgoing calls, voicemails, and texts are managed very well by the app.
  • Excellent tools for managing availability (set hours to receive calls and hours for VM for example).
  • Nice ability to add and manage extensions.
  • Hard to think of anything to improve...having the voice-to-text that is an add-on service at a cheaper price would be great.
  • Text is also an add-on service, but works well, at least on iOS in my experience.
  • Grasshopper has been a great tool for launching new endeavors without significant upfront infrastructure, hardware, or deployment expense, combined with the ability to cut bait if things don't pan out.
Grasshopper was recommended and worked well enough that we haven't even thought about looking at any other service.
10/10 rating mainly because in 4 years we've never needed it.

Would you buy Grasshopper again?

Yes

It's nice to have a number that you can make mobile but also keep control of in case the employee managing the number transitions for some reason. If you allow BYOD and your customers get used to calling that number, the customers leave with that employee and phone number. Also, it is easy to have several employees manage a mobile point of contact from one number via extensions.
