"Bandwidth has become much less user friendly over the last couple of years"
What do you like best about Bandwidth?

Ports are easy and straighforward to submit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

The current employees at Bandwidth do not understand porting and it's been difficult with Bandwidth now outsourcing their employees. They don't seem to speak English very well and therefore cannot explain rejections for ports and assist in the porting process. The Bandwidth APP often has issues and we have been receiving many rejections for ports that I feel are caused by Bandwidth on the processing end. There are many changes being made to the Bandwidth APP that aren't positive. Porting has become much more difficult and we don't get the support we need from well trained reps.

Response from Laney Alspaugh of Bandwidth

We’d welcome the chance to connect directly, learn more about your experience, and review any specific examples. Please reach out to Hannah Macchioni, Director, Number Support Group at hmacchioni@bandwidth.com to share about your experience. Your input is important to us, and it helps guide our efforts as we continue to invest in both the tools and the people supporting your success.

"Required password updates are too restrictive"
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.

Response from Matt Ruehlen of Bandwidth

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,

Matt Ruehlen

"Bandwidth's support is quite easily the worst I have encountered in tech!"
What do you like best about Bandwidth?

When working, Bandwidth is fine. It serves its purpose like any other company could do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bandwidth?

Their customer support is literally the worst I have ever come across! I am a customer success manager for a portfolio of customers and we utilize bandwidth for the clients to use sms within our flatform to support & run their businesses. We had a large group of customers whose sms suddenly went down with 0 warning or notice that they were out of compliance. That is not the worst. It has been 6 weeks and some of these customers are still down! Bandwidths support sometimes takes an entire week to respond and they are incredibly unhelpful. No matter how we try to help our customers by escalating, we cannot get a response. Bandwidth's support is quite easily the worst I have encountered in tech!
