Now that my Qwest phone service is finally activated, it's great. Call quality is fantastic! Reliability is pretty good - I've had one dropped call and that was talking to a cell phone, so I'm not sure who's fault that was. And now for the bad news: it took 3.5 weeks for my phone to be activated! Unbelievable, it's software, people! And I didn't even port a number over, I was assigned a number from Qwest. Honestly how hard is it to set up a new account? Luckily I hadn't cancelled my old voip service yet. Custer Service was fast and friendly, but can't really do anything about it other than to say "Phone activation can take up to 30 days." Oh, and 4 weeks after initial ordering I still can't set up my account online. Sure would like to do that... Bottom line, Qwest is offering a pretty great voip service for a fantastic price IMO. But you'll have to be patient and wait about a month for activation. Is it worth the wait?
We just began qwest one flex plan and have basically had problems the whole time. Most have been the typical startup problems, but the worst one is the poor voice quality. We get significant calls with only one way audio (meaning you can hear the person on the other end but they can't hear you or vice versa). Qwest at first seemed keen to fix this, but as of late is just giving the excuse that they cannot reproduce it well enough to fix it. Obviously this is a deal killer, as our 'C' suite is almost embarrassed to answer their phones for fear of it being an important client. I just don't think the Qwest techs know enough about this stuff to really get a system up and working...their debugging seems to be limited to just checking the router for any errors and they know nothing about the Cisco equipment. I would go with someone else.
This provider has grown progressively worse over time. They used to be easy to work with and had a very personal touch. They replaced that with call center staff that don't know how to help you and inflexibility. They have implemented business practices that have caused a great many problems for our customers and end-users. The used to excel at communication but that seem to drop the ball on that a lot now. They appear to be very focused on selling their hosted platform and really aren't interested in anything else. Even the host platforms seem to be getting bad reviews now. I would stay away from them and go with a larger provider with more experience and a better quality of staff and leadership.
The Proximiti Call Center is very easy to use. Also, I'm connected to the internet via fixed wireless, but the quality of calls are surprisingly good. I've tried vonage before and I didn't get that good of call quality. I don't like that I have to leave a voicemail for customer service to call me back.
