Software Advice offers objective insights based on verified user reviews and independent product and market research. When our advisors match you to a software provider, we may earn a referral fee.

How Software Advice ensures transparency

Software Advice lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Users can talk to our advisors for free to receive software recommendations matching their needs. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to reach users interested in their products.

How Software Advice verifies reviews

Software Advice carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Independent research methodology

Researchers at Software Advice use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or talk to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

About Upfirst

Upfirst is an AI-powered answering service designed for small businesses. It provides call coverage to ensure no call is missed. The service allows users to customize the AI receptionist with details about their business, write a custom greeting, and set call handling preferences. This enables the AI agent to provide a positive experience for callers and gather important information like email addresses or phone numbers.

Pros:

I absolutely love how well the UpFirst Answering AI responds now that I've fed it data about my company. It handles the vast majority of callers' questions more efficiently than I could myself. It’s been a lifesaver when I’m busy and can’t respond right away. Plus, it sends out text links quickly and answers pricing questions on the spot. For the rare items it didn’t catch right away, I just gave it a bit more info, and it quickly learned and adapted. Really impressed!

Cons:

Would love to see CNAM caller ID lookup. Like the accurate data capture yet took a few script edits to get spellback confirmation consistent.
