Small Business Phone Service

Overall Satisfaction with Nextiva Business Phone Service

I use it as a business line. I am the only person in the business, so I don't want to give strangers my personal cell. I like having the desktop phone as well so it will ring separately. I use it every time I make a call out for my business, I also keep track of all my contacts, calls, and missed calls via messages.

Pros

  • Organizes contacts
  • Customer service/chat
  • Cares

Cons

  • My app doesn't always show me when I have a text message or missed call. It's like I have to refresh or change settings every time I want it to be better updated.
  • Because I don't see missed calls or texts, I don't respond timely, and it makes me look unprofessional.
  • There is a lag from the time a text message shows up on my computer app and the time it's actually recieved. Very slow.
  • Room for growth (I'm a one person team at the moment)
  • A place to separate personal life from business.
  • Safety feature that I don't have to give out my cell phone.
  • Like having a landline so I can use it for emergencies.
I honestly haven't tried the videoconferencing on Nextiva yet to be able to compare, but I like the handheld phone. I'm guessing Nextiva has a place to add docs, but I haven't tried to find it yet. I'm just such a new business, I'm still figuring out Nextiva's features.

Do you think Nextiva delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Nextiva's feature set?

Yes

Did Nextiva live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Nextiva go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Nextiva again?

Yes

I have had several instances where I've received a notification the next day that I missed a call. That put me an entire day behind in response. I hate responding too late. It's not a good look when people want information quickly. The desktop app has to be refreshed every day too and that's frustrating.
