Summary: Their VOIP phone system is absolutely horrible if you are a small business. First off they said it would be easy to set up their phone system (since we would have to do it ourselves) and it wasn't at all easy even for someone with decent tech skills--I am an engineer and even build my own computers from scratch just to help you understand that I am not a luddite--it took me about 50 hours to set up our phone system. I first had to figure out what I thought I needed and then search in their search bar for those topics. The search bar would then direct me to "articles" that seemed to fit. I would have to search through those articles, all the while having to look up the definitions of the telecommunications jargon that pops up everywhere, to find the ones that were applicable to my situation. Then read those articles to sort out what I needed to do. There was no start-to-finish, "how to set up your Zoom phones" manual or tutorial that just walked me through what I needed.

Secondly, you have to pay more to get even the most basic support, and I don't even mean support like, "how do I do this or that". But support to help us with problems on THEIR end. Our phone system literally went down one day, meaning we couldn't make or receive calls. We couldn't reach anyone at Zoom by call, text, chat, nothing to even tell us why our phones were NOT WORKING or even tell them THAT our phones were not working. We literally had to upgrade our service on an emergency basis to even talk to someone about the fact the the phone system WASN'T WORKING at all.

Sometimes the phones also just do random things by themselves. An example, I came in one morning to find just one of the phones on some kind of auto forwarding so it couldn't receive any calls. I tried to fix it by going through the various menu options on the phone, to no avail--clicking on the "forwarding" option did not lead to any menu options to stop the forwarding. When I had used the phone the previous day it was fine. I was the last person to use it. I made no changes to it. It just started auto forwarding on it's own. This happened again randomly over the months to other phones and sometimes when you would go to the "forwarding" menu option you could find an option to stop the forwarding--but that option was not always there and it never did show up on the first phone that had this problem. As far as I am concerned, this isn't something that I did wrong or something having to do with my level of knowledge but something random that just happened, something wrong with the phone or the system; something I should be able to talk to someone about so I can get it fixed. Forget about it, ain't going to happen. You are quite literally on your own.

The last straw was today, we needed to get on to the "manage system phones" link on the online portal that we had always used to make changes to our auto-receptionist. Lo-and-behold the link was no longer on their website. It was just gone. No reference to any "manage system phone" no reference to "auto receptionist"--just gone. We had no way to get to the auto receptionist settings to make a critical change--ie our internet was down so we needed to change our greeting to let clients know we wouldn't be able to receive calls but WE COULDN'T BECAUSE THEY CHANGED THE WEBSITE AND THE LINK WAS GONE. Once again, cannot talk to anyone, chat with anyone, text anyone to even find out how to get to the auto-receptionist settings. Found an article that said to go to the online portal and click "phone system management" which is exactly the thing that was no longer on their online portal.
We are so done with Zoom, not only was the sales person in the very beginning dishonest with us about the ease of setting up the system but you can't get support for problems that are THEIR FAULT. It is truly messed up.

Positive: The price for basic service is comparable to other providers. Not sure that this is a "pros" exactly.

Negative: Non-existent support.
Phones do random things and there is no obvious way to fix them.
