"Excellent virtual telephony app"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

This is great for entrepreneurs who want to leverage tech to scale their enterprise instead of people. OpenPhone allows me to run my business phone/text virtually on my cell, desktop, anything with an internet connection. Without it I would be paying an employee to do it.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

File size when sending text attachments is small compared to iMessage, Apple Watch support is limited to notifications only.

"Great for team production!"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

I like that everyone on the team can see what has been said in all texts and I like that when someone is calling the OpenPhone line, calls are distinctive from your personal line.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

Not much at the moment....maybe not being able to group my contacts into a category. If you have hundreds of contacts it'd be nice to filter that way.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Issues can be solved easily now that all team members can see in real-time what is going on. Streamlining conversations makes tasks go by faster.

"Great support and overall experience"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

Really liked the simplicity of settings, all on one page, took me 20 minutes to figure out it all. Plus a huge kudos for the text-to-speech feature! This is impressive

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

Didn't get how the text message templates work when missed the call.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Day to day communication with customers. Out of work hours is a great help, too. Enjoyed having the local US format type of the phone number.

"Outstanding Support!"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

The OpenPhone platform is extremely user-friendly, whether I'm working with the desktop or mobile app. Compared to other VOIP systems I've used in the past, this one seems to offer the most feature-rich and intuitive suite of assets I have found. And if you do have some questions as I did before and after I signed up, I found the custom support to be exceptional, responsive and helpful. It's refreshing to know that despite the advanced technology solution available here, that there is a great team of humans ready to help.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

So far, there's been nothing to dislike.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

OpenPhone provides a simplified international presence that is helpful for my business.

"Making my remote experience seamless!"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

That I can contact my family and my work, easily, even though I'm in Canada!

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

I hate that third party phone services are blocked by verification steps for most accounts. It's not necessarily OpenPhone's fault, but it can get complicated when I'm temporarily living in another country, but need to do things like call my bank etc.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can call my family without them getting $13203290 in international fees. I, also, am more accessible to the company I work for remotely.

"Best phone and messaging app for your business"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

✅ Some apps only have the call feature but OpenPhone also has the text messaging feature which is convenient. ✅ There's a clear connection when calling other people, unlike other apps. ✅ We can access our other team's phone number. ✅ We can also set auto-replies during and after business hours. ✅ This was the cheapest app we could find that had good features in it. ✅ We can easily get in contact with the support team if we had any questions.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

There are just other features that I would like to have like sorting the contacts into lists or groups so it's easier to find them.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to get in contact with our clients or leads easily whether it's through call or message.

Lacks a videoconferencing feature, but at this price point I'm not complaining ;)

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

As an international who has to do many US domestic calls, OpenPhone is very budget-friendly.

"Great for collaboration"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

Use it primarily for shared messages. I get guest calls and allows us all to see what's going on and each team member. I use Zapier so that guest contacts and listings are automatically populated in my contacts and I know who is calling.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

So far I don't have any complaints. I just ported another number over so I'm waiting to see how that goes.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

I cannot take all calls and messages all the time. This allows me to get help. It also allows me to see who is contacting me.

"Great shared number for a team"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

Ease of set up, ease of sharing with team members

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

So far, the experience has been great. Some more integrations with chat apps (like Whatsapp and Messenger) might be useful for teams that are managing multiple communication channels.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

A shared number that our teammates can use to assist with customer engagement

"Great, no frills service for a very reasonable price."
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

I used open phone for business contacts and it served my purposes perfectly. I didn't need a lot from the service--just a phone number with an area code of my choice that would allow business associates to contact me at their convenience. I received notifications that I had a call and almost never answered directly, allowing the caller to leave a voice message after listening to my customized greeting. I was able to respond to the calls at my convenience, after listening to the voice mail and/or reading the transcription provided. I could save important contacts to OpenPhone's address book.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

This is a VoIP service, so I had some trouble at times when I tried to use it as a mobile phone. For example, some security check codes were never received and text messages were sometimes not received. However, as a VoIP functions as a landline (in my understanding), this is an expected difference from a mobile phone number's functionality. All in all, OpenPhone's service functioned perfectly as an affordable VoIP option!

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

OpenPhone allowed me to route all business calls to a specific number. This freed up my regular phone number for personal use and ensured that all business phone correspondences were together in one dedicated call list/inbox.

"Efficient and Works Beautifully"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

I would say one of the best things about OpenPhone is the easy to use service. The app works well and it's easy to understand. I'm in a different country for business reasons and my original US number is working as if I were in the US still! The absolute best thing about OpenPhone is the prime customer service. I've never experienced such nice, quick, and efficient service in a company. OpenPhone, you have my business forever!

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

The only downside is no international calls, but that's not really the reason why I use the service anyways. I really don't have any reason to complain!

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have moved abroad for my business and communicating with my US connections from my old US number is a absolute best benefit. I'm also still able to keep in touch with my family members without the headache of international call rates and choppy phone service. OpenPhone has allowed me to keep my original number without dealing with cell phone service companies and it has been fantastic.

"EXCELLENT PRODUCT AND SERVICE! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

Amazing phone app. It has all the capabilities you would think of. Choose your local number, texting, voicemail, etc. You can use it with the app on your phone, just like having a second line attached. You can even setup a WhatsApp account. You can also use the web based version and make calls and text from an amazing UI. Their customer service is awesome and super fast. I've tryied other similar services, but Openphone is the best. I've been a user for over 6 months now, and I'm sticking to it. The price is totally worth it.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

Not much to dislike. Rarely there´s a short service interruption, but you can check on their website the service status.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

You get a fully functional local number, and use it right in your mobile device. No matter where in the world you are, your US number is always on line. You also get free calls in the US!! Their web UI is amazing, I use it a lot for easy texting.

"Great service better than Google Voice"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

the iPhone app, the ease to call over a computer, the ease to port a number, how it does not break up or drop calls.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

Sometimes there is a bit of static with calls. Wish it gave incoming call notificatios when the tab on the website is not open. Needs a google chrome app.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

That we can download copies of text messages to spreadsheets. Using a computer to make calls and using the app. The ease of making calls to clients. THe ability for them to hear you clearly. How it can be used on the road and at the office.

"Right from the start - Great service from OpenPhone"

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

At this point my experience ha been all great. I cannot think of one thing thing where they have disssapointed me.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quality of sound, ease of use, cost, integration to 3rd party services.

"The best business phone solution out there!"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

OpenPhone has a great interface and the system actually works! We migrated over from Grasshopper where we encountered on-going issues and we couldn't be happier with the features and support they provide.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

The blocked number feature needs to be improved (e.g. we can't add blocked numbers unless the number called in or was called out to).

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Customer support & user on-boarding; OpenPhone works really well for teams.

"VERY Responsive"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

They helped me problem solve until it was made right. So responsive and willing to help until it was right.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

The porting over of the number took longer than I liked, but not sure that was all up to OpenPhone. Perhaps automtically extend the trial an additional week to allow for issues.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was using skype for my business calls and well, it was unreliable, inconsistent and incredibly outdated. I am using Open Phone because they have a web app, ability to set office hours and a reliable voicemail service for a decent price.

"Hands down the best phone system with remote workers and cell phones"
What do you like best about OpenPhone?

Love that I can separate my personal cell phone from my work phone. My whole team has the app and can manage the main line, call out, and accept incoming calls.

What do you dislike about OpenPhone?

I could use a bulk delete function with soo many missed calls over the last few months.

What problems is OpenPhone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having gone full remote, we no longer needed an office line. Ported our landline number in and no one knows any different calling in.
