Vonage is a cloud-based business VoIP software designed for different industries: accounting, finance, franchise healthcare, insurance, law firms, marketing, real estate, retail, transportation and logistics, and travel and hospitality. Described as an affordable and innovative business communications solution, Vonage is using a cloud-hosted VoIP phone system. VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol, and this means users will be able to run their phone over the web. Hence, it allows all users connected to an IP network, such as the Internet, to communicate with one another.
Vonage aims to maximize profitability and to improve productivity by equipping branch offices, contact centers, and virtual teams powerful capabilities. They will be able to conduct online meetings, collaborate by web conferencing, participate to audio conference calls, and connect through their smartphones, laptops, desktops, or tablets. This software, furthermore, helps businesses of all sizes to save more money, as it eliminates dependency to costly installation and maintenance of on-site hardware and infrastructure used for the traditional telephone system.
Show MoreVonage offers a feature which enables users to set up an automatic attendant, routing calls to specific departments. This feature is called Virtual Receptionist. Virtual Receptionist is a functionality which allows users to customize their phone system, so they will be able to deliver an exceptional customer service. It ensures that calls initiated by customers are forwarded to the right person or place.
Furthermore, as a customizable functionality, users will be able to create call routing options for their callers. As an example, they can provide their callers an option to dial by name or dial by extension. Before calls are routed to the appropriate department, customers can also use the company directory. Users can set up as many Virtual Receptionists as they want, and they can customize them for calls during holidays, lunchtimes, and after hours.
Meanwhile, Vonage has network optimization capabilities. It can maintain call quality and call continuity while businesses and enterprises are using their bandwidth-intensive cloud applications: video, chat, and collaboration tools. Likewise, it ensures that such applications have the bandwidth they need for real-time communications. Hence, data and messages are transmitted smoothly and won’t be delayed.
Configurable from the admin portal, Vonage also has a call monitoring feature. With this, supervisors will be able to listen to call recordings of their sales agents and service staff; and they can, in fact, do it remotely using the Vonage mobile or desktop app. This feature functions as a training tool for coaches, allowing them to check how their agents are interacting with their customers or prospects in their calls. Vonage provides three call monitoring modes: monitor, whisper, and barge.
Show MoreSince businesses have unique business-related needs, it is only prudent that they steer clear of paying for an all-in-one, “perfect” software. However, it would be difficult to chance on such application even among sought-after software systems. The reasonable thing to do is to note down the various key functions which necessitate examination like major features, packages, technical skill competence of staff, company size, etc. Next, you must perform your product research thoroughly. Go over some Vonage evaluations and check out the other software solutions in your shortlist more closely. Such well-rounded product investigation guarantees you weed out unsuitable apps and subscribe to the system which has all the function your company requires.

ADD A REVIEWThe most favorable review
PROS: Unlike other programs, Vonage does not mess with your voice quality. This is quite surprising because you can use this in virtually any device as long as there is an internet connection. All I had to do was to download its app onto my phone, and voila--I have everything set up. Normally, platforms such as this result in choppy communication, but the sound delivery with this tool is really smooth. Vonage’s support team respond to your issues in real-time too.
CONS: I am a long-time user, and I haven’t experienced any drawbacks from this app. I use this for both work and personal calls. All seems to works well.
The least favorable review
PROS: There’s nothing fancy about this software--but it functions just as it should. You can rely on it to get your calls through the other party without a problem. So far, I haven’t had issues with the quality of the calls too.
CONS: I can’t really pinpoint a time when I have come across a major issue using this program. There was probably a minor thing or two, but that has been remedied right away.

PROS: I really like how Vonage is available on various platforms--on my phone, on my desktop, and on my laptop. It offers accessibility above all else. The quality of the calls I’ve been able to make through this program has been impressive too. I believe that this is really a top-notch VoIP tool.
CONS: I really hate how my conference calls are just limited to 3 participants at a time. Aside from this minor issue, everything works fine for me.

Ease of Use
PROS: Losing calls is virtually impossible with Vonage. It can store data on who has tried to call you and who you have a call appointment with. Sending voicemails are quite a breeze too. In fact, I think everything is a breeze with Vonage. Making calls and receiving them is so easy. If you’re not disposed to receive calls, you can also opt to send out text messages instead.
CONS: I do notice some intermittent static noises during calls and sometimes the audio is a little unclear too. And when the internet connection is weak, it also does not perform very well. Other than these minor issues, there is nothing else I would change about this tool.

PROS: First of all, I love how I have the option to take my calls on the desktop or on my phone. Another thing I love about this tool is that this has integrated quite seamlessly into my work processes. I’ve been able to store data into the program because of how reliable it is too.
CONS: I can’t pinpoint this as a problem of the program itself or if it is our internet connection. However, I want to note here that we’ve been intermittently dropping calls. Also, each day’s call schedule can’t be unique. It has to be the same throughout the whole week.
Simple and does its job well–a tool that serves me well.

CONS: I’d like to believe that I have a pretty decent internet connection. However, there are times when my calls with Vonage would either be dropped mid-conversation, or I would hear static noises on the line. I’m not quite sure if the problem is from my end or theirs.

PROS: We use Vonage Business in my company and so far, I’ve been really enjoying the perks of this tool. I can easily receive and make calls through it.

I also love how it doesn’t just limit me to calls too. I can also send out messages here.
CONS: I’ve been really loving the many uses of this program. However, it does have its moments where calls get intermittently disturbed by static noises. The app isn’t the best, so I prefer using the desktop version.

PROS: Vonage removes all of the complications of other solutions in its ranks. The result: a straightforward tool that anticipates the needs of its users. I really love its layout and environment. The font properties are really easy on the eyes and you’d be hard-pressed to misunderstand the instructions because of how clear they are. You can access it anywhere too! On the web, through its app, etc--you name it. It’s a really great tool to have on your corner.
CONS: Sometimes a straightforward tool is just what you need. Other times, there is a call for something much more. Take Vonage for example. Now that they have developed their initial product model to a T, I think that it is high time that they expand its capabilities now.
It’s a really convenient aid in communication!

PROS: Vonage is a great app for calling and even texting other users. I love how it is readily available just about anywhere. I know that this has more to do with its cloud-availability, but I think it’s worth noting just how great it is that they have developed this for other platforms as well--on mobile regardless of the operating system and on desktop.
CONS: You can’t always get the right connection when you’re using the app on your phone. The desktop version is more reliable, I think. I’d recommend this more than the app.

CONS: There have been no noise disturbances except for one or two times. However, I can overlook this because the quality of the voice is really good. Whenever these rare noise disturbances or static noises happen, they only last for a split second anyway.
