How RingCentral Works RingCentral User Feedback "I do use an 800 number but in a more modern way. I use Ring Central, which was recommended to me ... It's very inexpensive, has an answering machine feature, can send and receive faxes, and can connect to any and all of your phone lines. It can ring from your house phone, your cell, or both in sequence or simultaneously. I think this gives you the perfect solution for clients to contact you. It's an 800 number, which adds to the professionalism and credibility of your business, and it allows you to be reached at any time anywhere, PLUS people can FAX and be FAXed! That can make it easy to get contracts to less computer savvy clients and get the signed copy back quickly. It really does meet all of the needs of an entertainer.." » Astrocity, themagiccafe.com "I've used Ring Central for a few months now. I like it overall; however, I am finding that it is not compatible with all other types of phone lines. If I am faxing to someone who uses DSL the fax will not go through. I used to think that it was just a problem with my old traditional fax machine but found out differently from my phone company. It's a great option for me because I go to a field office a couple days a week and I don't miss my incoming faxes or the 800 line calls." » Robin H., virtualassistantforums.com "I use Ring Central as the other person answered. I like you, send and receive a few faxes a month. You can select your number and decide whether you need local or 1-800. You can even create a customized number if it is not already used. You are able to pay monthly or pay one lump sum for the year. I think I paid 95.00 for 500 faxes(pages) monthly and if you go over it is 5.9 cents a minute. The interface is very nice and you can import contacts or create them and store them in the product. It is a SaaS service, so you can go online and view the results of your fax sent. I like that I get the faxes in softcopy format so I can store them on my computer. I also set up my mobile phone, so that when I receive a fax - I receive an SMS message. I have been very satisfied with the service." » Karen F., linkedin.com/answers "I've used ring central for a while, you can have multiple mailboxes "for management press 1" etc. Also, anyone can fax to that number and it shows up as a .pdf in my email. Faxing out is as easy as attaching and attachemtn to an email as well. My basic service is about $16/mo after taxes and fees. I've been really happy with it. It even has nice on hold music for that extra level of credibility. :) Disclaimer: I am in no way being compensated by ring central, I just like them :)" » Mat L., biggerpockets.com "We have been using Ring Central for about a month now. I transfer my business line to the 800 number at night. When I come in each morning I have voice mails left along with the caller's phone number. Don't have to worry about whether I can clearly understand the phone number or not, works great. I only use it for after hours and weekends for now. I may switch all calls to it eventually, will see how it goes. Pricing is very competitive to other vendors offering same services. Good reputation not a sham." » txagt39, insurance-forums.net "My partner and use an average of just over 1500 toll free minutes per minutes (on ring central). Note that we also give out our direct phone numbers and our cell phone numbers. About half of the inbound minutes that we receive are directed to those numbers." » Gregb3104, insurance-forums.net "I use ring central and like it very much. I can expand my serivce by adding a lines at anytime. It has a nice Iphone and Ipad app too for when I am on the road." » Scott H., biggerpockets.com "If you need a 1-800 number for your business, but don't want to pay the crazy rates that your local company will charge, you need to sign up with Ring Central. Along with the 800 numbers, they offer a terrific fax to email service that allows you to send receive faxes directly on your computer." » Sam, insurance-forums.net "I have been using Ring Central for the past 1.5 years, for my 800 number, and it has been great." » Bob W., activerain.com "I use ring central for an 800 # tied to my existing local number. I also have an 800 # through them for my fax. I like the service and the options on how to set everything up and change to forward to your cell number or any other number. It's all web based and easy to use. Plus fast and outstanding customer service." » Allen B., insurance-forums.net "I use Ring Central also, and I have used it for two years, with no problems. I love the flexiblity of the extensions, I need that now my business is growing and sometimes I need help so I will assign an extension to my sub." » uniquely40, virtualassistantforums "I just signed up for Ring Central last week and so far so good, I am kind of scared now that I read about the billing situation, but we will see what happens. And I too love the different ext that they offer." » TipTopVirtualSolutions, virtualassistantforums.com "I have 8 lines with RingCentral operating over a Verizon 7mb DSL (they say you need about 100 kbs per line for bandwidth) and we can not be happier. The service is awesome and we haven't had a single problem, aside from the initial set up 8 months ago (which was really a non issue once I spoke with their tech support). The system is very flexible and you can configure it pretty much any way that you want. In a nutshell, highly recommended. Get in touch with me if you have questions, but suffice it to say that I am a big fan. The 8 line system that I have costs about $200 per month including taxes, etc. and I paid $80 per handset, so I had a $640 investment to get started, but I had to buy a phone system anyway, so $640 was cheap to me." » Third Joker, insurance-forums.net "I use Ring Central as well. I have a separate fax number, and an extra local number is just $5 more. Calls get routed to my cell first and if I don't pick up goes back to voice mail. I find the voice quality Better than vonage which I had a couple of years ago." » Lily C., biggerpckets.com "I also use Ring Central. Very easy to switch my calls from my office to my cell or from my office to my home office. All within a click." » JRoot, insurance-forums.net "I tried Ring Central for the 30 day free trial. When I called to cancel they asked me to keep it. When I said no thanks they offered me a $10.00 gift card to starbucks and another month free. So I said sure and had them for a while. I only cancelled because I did not use the service too much but overall it was great." » tsbva, virtualassistantforums.com "I'm using them only for faxing. I have a phone number dedicated for my fax and have yet to "port" it over to them as my dsl comes through that line. I paid the $7.99 for the 1st month and like the service so much that I just paid for the year to receive the small discount. Great service." » Rick, insurance-forums.net "I love Ring Central! I use it with my event planning company and Im going to just add an extension for my VA business. I too keep mine on DND and I get messages to my cell phone that includes that msg left so that I can call the customer back." » bayareava, virtualassistantforums.com "I use Ring Central. I have numbers in three states. They all ring to my cell phone (if I want them too) ... Look at Vonage and others... and read the reviews. I did and chose Ring Central. It gives me unlimited nationwide and a separate fax. I can add extensions for $5 per month for my sales people. It keeps all my messages and faxes online, at my finger tips. There is no contract. Use it for a month and if you don't like it, drop it ... " » jimAKAblue, contractortalk.com "I use RingCentral as a fax/phone line.
