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.
I am the owner, founder, and "master bit herder" for icci, LLC. After 25 years of supporting other providers PBX and VoIP installs for my customers, I decided to enter into the marketplace. We tried several VoIP providers while developing our product. When we came across Telnyx, we knew that if the product worked as advertised, we were all in and had found our preferred provider. Key features we were after from day one: • SRTP/TLS connectivity • Debug terminal with verbosity set high for SIP sessions • T.38 Passthrough • Low latency to AWS Ohio Zone (11-20ms avg) • Flexible trunk price model (dedicated trunks not required) We were surprised by: • Rate Desk Tariff Pricing • Regular API feature updates and new features • AWS VPC availability At one point 18 months ago, we had a doctor's office that was unable to dial specific numbers owned by Sprint... Telnyx support owned the problem from the get-go, which I was very impressed with. It did take several weeks to get the issue worked out, however, we have had no further issues like this. Telnyx works perfectly with Sangoma's PBXact & FreePBX. Supporting TLS/SRTP really helps get an "A" on our HIPAA evaluations!
