    Overall I like Ooma Office and would recommended it for any small business.

    Pros

    I like that is has customizable feature such as the automated receptionist. Plus you can customize the times the office is opened or closed with an upload voice recording.

    Cons

    It can be hard to figure out to set up Ooma Office even with the introduction. It took some time to get it up and running.

    Ooma is a cheap alternative to cable phone service. You can save 75% per line and get free digital faxing, cutting costs on ink and paper in addition to the phone line you pay for with cable faxing.

    Pros

    It's cheap and easy to use. It's made for those who aren't well-versed in VoIP phones or phone configuration. Comes with free digital faxing.

    Cons

    If you do what a lot of features and functions for you phone menus, this product isn't for you.

    Pros

    I love being able to program a custom receptionist message. Also love that I can set out business hours and holidays for the whole year and not have to worry about programming phones weekly. I can set and forget practically, except I do have to change our after hours message for holidays. Also love the fact I can forward calls to our cell phones so we can stay connected on the go.

    Cons

    Sometimes if I am downloading programs during business hours the customers complain about hearing a buzzing noise. Would also like to suggest a "holiday after-hour" receptionist message.

    Pros

    We used these guys for longer than we should. At 1 and 2 people in the office it was great. Lots of features and made us sound bigger than were.

    Cons

    As we grew the system failed to keep pace. Dropped calls were a regular occurrence and the phone system also negatively impacted our bandwidth. I did try to address this with Ooma and they always blamed our internet connection. Finally, we decided to cancel as we were spending close to some $ per month for very substandard service. When I called to cancel they tried to get me to resell my system which I told them I was not interested in doing. After we hung up I got an email saying I had three months to resell the system or they would start billing me again. I emailed them back and told them to check the call logs on their call center and that was not what we agreed. I asked not to be charged again by email. They billed me again anyway.

    Pros

    We have used Ooma for several years now and it has served its purpose as our "main" number. Since our office is fairly virtual and we typically deal with customers via email and online meetings, we just needed a phone and Ooma is a good option. Set up was super easy and has been mostly maintenance free.
    We have customers in both the US and Canada and this service allows calls from both and there is no additional per minute charge when calling Canada.
    The Virtual assistant, who answers calls when there is no one to take them, was easy to set up and seems to work most of the time. You can create your own recording to answer the calls as well as use the automated voice service.

    Cons

    While it was easy to set up, we have had a few connectivity issues. Some of it is unpreventable - with a VoIP phone service you need internet, and if that goes out there is a problem. But there have been a few times where the Ooma server was down and we weren't notified.
    Also there is a function that allows you to have automated withdrawals to pay for account overages. Sometimes this service would not be working and they would cancel our conference bridge subscription without notice. We have used the conference bridge service for a while now and it is mostly reliable, but is most affected by this funding/billing defect.

    Easy to setup and manage VOIP

    Pros

    Ooma was very easy to setup. Once the phones arrived it was easy to login to the administrative portal and setup the phones for everyone in the office. Working with support to port our old phone numbers over was easy as well. The administrative portal gives me all the reports I need to be sure employees are managing their phone properly and taking care of customers.

    Cons

    I hate the smartphone app. If you close the app you no longer receive calls on your smartphone. Also, it only presents a notification not a ring for a call. It was also annoying that we had to purchase additional hardware and they couldn't use our existing common IP phones.

    In our office we make and or receive 200-300 calls per day. The quality with Ooma is awesome. We never drop calls and the call quality is crystal clear. We especially like the ability to take calls outside of the office! Amazing Product! Would recommend to any small to medium size business!

    Pros

    Virtual Receptionist - It allows our business to take calls after hours for us!
    Mobile App - The ability to take calls on the road and not lose business is great!
    Call Quality - NEVER HAD AN ISSUE! CRYSTAL CLEAR!

    Cons

    There are not to many things I can think of that are a con. I think that it was a little bit complicated to setup and learn how to use. I think that is standard with any new product individuals use. It has a learning curve! Learn it and learn it fast and you will LOVE THIS PRODUCT

    It is affordable and easy to use/setup. Also multiple lines can be setup easily with extensions for all those in your office.

    Cons

    It relies on internet connection, so if the internet is down for any reason the phones don't work. And once in a while you get a wonky connection that make it hard to hear.

    I work in the office of a small HVAC Company and Ooma Office works very well for us, but only sometimes. You have to have a very good internet connection for the devices to stay connected to the base station. When it works, it's great! But our internet isn't always the best, so the phones will get disconnected and take a while (sometimes a few days) to be able connect again. I do like the online portion where you customize your settings. It is very simple to use and you can customize a lot of the options for setting up your office phone system.

    Pros

    Customizing phone options

    Cons

    Loses connection, difficult to restart

    Pros

    The auto-receptionist is great. We change where calls are routed all the time, and most of our people don't work in "the office". We recorded the options on Garageband, so they sound good, and we upload different versions during different show offerings. We also use the "After Hours" menu to reroute calls after 6pm on show nights, and then the system returns to the regular receptionist at 10pm on show nights. Cut our office phone bill in half.

    Cons

    It's VOiP, so it's vulnerable to internet outages. Ooma iOS app didn't work with Ooma Office when we first got it - broke my login - so I'm afraid to try it again. An app would be VERY helpful for redirecting extensions on the fly. Spent some time trying to make faxing work, then gave up. Could receive. Could not send. Solved problem by putting fax machine on home phone line. Faxing is not that important any more anyway.

    The solution is working well, easy to install and use. It comes with these sockets to install for every phone and that way you easily distribute phone calls and change it if someone is not in the office.

    Cons

    Their support is sometimes a bit slow. You have to wait in line and the people don't seem to know everything, so you have to call in.

    The inconsistency in pricing/billing. The ability to get a human on the phone when we need help.
