"Cloud services"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Bandwidth?

Recently they contracted with new third party and since them caller ID name on inbound calls has been incorrect. They indicate this should be fixed as when they bring on additional secondary and tertiary providers but this doesn't fix the current issue and we've been forced to consider moving client numbers to a different provider for the time being. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

Better communication with clients and more thorough testing before making these large changes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bandwidth solving and how is that benefiting you?

a more cost efficient solution for clients. Ease of access and support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback regarding our recent vendor changes. You are right to point this out, as we are currently navigating industry dynamics regarding CNAM and Caller ID data. While our shift was necessary, we know that the transition has created friction for some of our customers.

Please know that we have been actively working to integrate additional data sources to close the gaps you are seeing. We continue to fine-tune the product and have empirically validated that these sources are improving accuracy, and we remain committed to exploring further opportunities for even more reliable Caller ID (CNAM) presentation.

I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this with you in more detail and share more about what we are seeing in the data. Please send me an email directly at mruehlen@bandwidth.com and I'll make certain that you're offered a deep conversation on the full mechanics.

Thank you for trusting us with your business,

Matt Ruehlen Sr. Director, Voice of the Customer

"Bandwidth Survey"

3/5

What do you like best about Bandwidth?

I find it easy to use and pretty reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

The support used to be good pre-COVID. Since COVID, they changed thier support model and now charge for support and it's expensive. If you can't afford thier support option, you have to submit a ticket and wait for someone to get back you which is very inconvenient- especially when you have a time sensitive issue that you need help with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bandwidth solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't know if they are solving any problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for the feedback. The ability to manage port orders in a single location is exactly what we want to design for, so I'm glad that's landing well. Your point about FOC deadline variability is noted.

I'd love to hear more about the specific scenarios where that's created frustration. Feel free to reach out directly at mruehlen@bandwidth.com and I'll bring in our UX folks to hear your feedback directly.

"Required password updates are too restrictive"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Bandwidth?

I primarily use the reports to gather billing info for our customers. The reports are good and responsive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

Your required password updates are too restrictive time-wise.One time I got an email that arrived on a Sunday morning and expired before I saw the email.

Today I was lucky and received the email in time that I could use the button and update. But the first two times I tried it told me that the password had either non-keyboard or space characters in it.

Fortunately I was able to get it accepted. I copied in the same password all three times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bandwidth solving and how is that benefiting you?

It does no solve problems for me, I just use the reports to complete my work as I do with all of our other carriers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello,

Thank you for your review and for the positive feedback on our reporting tools.

I also appreciate your sharing of the specifics on your experience with password updates. Our system is designed to send notifications at 10 days prior to expiration, and then 5 days, and finally 1 day before a password expires. It sounds like you had a different experience here that I'd like to learn more about.

If you'd be willing, please email me directly at mruehlen@bandwidth.com. I'd like to confirm the details to ensure we address this properly.

Thank you for trusting us with your business,

"Password management is a pain. Lack of tools to connect campaigns to the right number."

3/5

What do you like best about Bandwidth?

Cost. Some parts of the app are pretty straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

The fact that some common sense features need to be turned on by contract, that the tools don't clearly connect across the suite - if I have a campaign to a phone number, what's the campaign brand name so that I can easily connect (for example)? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bandwidth solving and how is that benefiting you?

Messaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback on the Bandwidth App. I'm sorry to hear about the frustration these issues are causing. Your points about password management, connecting campaign data, and feature accessibility are all items I'd like to learn more about. I think you are getting at an easier way to search by the brand of a campaign (rather than only the phone number itself), but if you'd be willing, I'd appreciate you sharing more about the specific workflows and to confirm I'm understanding you correctly.

Please send me an email directly at mruehlen@bandwidth.com and I'll personally respond so that I can be certain we're championing this feedback with our product managers.

"Amazing Portal, pricing needs work"

3/5

What do you like best about Bandwidth?

The Portal is one of the (If not THE) best in class fo any carrier I have worked with. The Account team support is also amazing and very responsive along with the response time on support tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

Pricing seems to be an ongoing discussion point and could use some real help, especially when talking about large TN/DID footprints. Multi $ porting fee and above average per minute rates are way above many wider market carriers and large turnoffs for a carrier with as much supply as BW. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bandwidth solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a carrier to help with wider coverage of North Americas, BW helps everday to provide good VoIP services as well as end to end connectivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We are leaving bandwidth at the end of april due to overpromising and under delivering."

2.5/5

What do you like best about Bandwidth?

I really don't have anything in particular I like. The interface is non intuitive and having a separate portal for E911 is inefficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

The interface is non intuitive and having a separate portal for E911 is inefficient. They made promises they did not keep and then when I was dissatisfied with the broken promises I was not allowed out of my contract. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bandwidth solving and how is that benefiting you?

The same ones other carriers have done in the past and making things more difficult because we could never fully move to bandwidth, we had to spread our services across two carriers due to the promise that was never delivered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
