The Bad

  • Limited Information on Customer Support

Limited Information on Customer Support

Ooma’s website provides very limited information on its customer support options. If your business has limited or off-site IT staff, we recommend having detailed discussions with Ooma’s sales representatives about what customer support the company provides and if it comes with any extra charge.

Comparison with another service. I used to have another VOIP provider that was comperable in price to Ooma. there was no on call service but you had to check their blog to see if your problem had already existed and how to fix it and if the problem wasn't listed you could post a new issue. a member techy would then contact you. The provider was then bought out be a big player and immediate phone support was available, but the service quality went down as well as the phone quality itself. Ooma so far is crisper sounding, great phone support and offers super pricing.

I've had Ooma for nearly two years. I like them. I wish that I could send and receive text using my VOIP number with them but I still like them. The app is very reliable and no complaints. I pay $17 per month and I had a good selection of phone numbers to choose from.

I really like Ooma because it makes it affordable to keep a landline and not just switch to only using our cell phones. I feel like there's a delay in getting our messages sent to our email account but other than that, this has been a great service.

They keep on raising their prices every quarter. Outside of that one issue they are a perfect company. Service dependability depends on your own Internet provider.

I would give it 5 stars if it were compared to conventional phone companies. I might give google voice an edge because it has a totally free option. I still have to pay monthly taxes with Ooma.

Ok technology. I was not happy with the customer service. I cancelled and they didn't do it. I ended up paying for three more months before I cancelled again.

Ooma has been a great online phone service. The reception was crisp and clear for all my calls. As long as there's internet reception, the call is clear.
