What do you like best about Star2Star?

Configuring extensions, autoattendants, speed dials and many more features in the online portal is very straight forward, even with multiple locations and many users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Star2Star?

Because it's a VOIP system it needs to interact with a cable/fiber modem to route packets accordingly, and in my experience, there are often settings on the modem that aren't configured correctly and troubleshooting between our VOIP vendor and our INET vendor can be cumbersome with each saying an issue is on the other "side". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We need an easy to use & configure multiline system to handle our call volume in multiple physical locations, Star2Star solves our communication problem between locations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Star2Star?

I appreciate the variety of features offered by this service, from individual conference lines, the ability for individuals to drive their on-site phone line to their personal cell phone if they are mobile, and the individual user line management ability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Star2Star?

This is my first experience with a VOIP system so I don't have anything to compare it to. That being said, the user interface is atrocious. It looks like it was built in 1999 and is not intuitive in the least. I really, really struggled with it in the beginning and my users have not adopted the individual user interface at all because it is so clunky and awkward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Star2Star solving and how is that benefiting you?

One thing we have loved about this service is the ability to easily take our phone system offsite, particularly as the pandemic hit. Just a few small tweaks to the system and we were able to handle phone calls as if we were still in the office, and our clientele was none the wiser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Star2Star?

Compared to competitive solutions, Star2Star is very cost effective solution that still offers key UCaaS functionality and does it well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Star2Star?

There are a couple nice to have features missing that I am sure will eventually be added. Voicemail transcription to email is one I would like to see. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Saved 70% on our monthly UCaaS spend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Star2Star?

It's a great option for schools and hospitals. You have some of the cloud based options of more standard PBXs while still having a local phone system when the internet goes down. The starbox can act as an onsite PBX that continues to keep your phones locally functional. Outside of that, the call center options are easy to use to and effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Star2Star?

The StarBox requires periodic reboots. Unlike a traditional cloud PBX, you are required to have equipment that is on site and will need to be maintained.

Having a hybrid solution allows for two potential breaking points that may cause the system to go down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Star2Star solving and how is that benefiting you?

Star2Star is able to keep our phone system going during the worst conditions. In Florida, we sometimes lose internet during hurricanes so we can't rely on a purely cloud based solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Star2Star?

Software is pretty easy to use. The interface is user-friendly and you don't need to be a genius programmer to configure extensions or system settings correctly. I also like that your outgoing calls via computer or cell phone (if properly set up this way) will display the company caller ID and will keep your landline/cell number private. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Star2Star?

The softphone features are a bit limited, and there are some bugs with using the StarPhone app (cell phone). The audio functions are hard to get used to when you have a call that comes in over your regular cellular line. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Star2Star:

Make sure you "adopt" any old phones into the S2S system upon purchase - don't wait. The S2S contract generally allows you to cover those older model phones under maintenance and will replace/upgrade them at no cost if they no longer work or become incompatible. Great feature! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Star2Star solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have been able to set up remote users with seamless phone functionality - same as if they were working in the office. This was a key feature for our remote work benefit that we rolled out this year. Our employees are thrilled! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
