They've grown bigger too quickly. Loss of quality, numerous technical issues, and untrained personnel.

Ruby is generally good at what they do
Ruby is very good at what they do. I'm very glad I switched over to their services. My only "beef" is with a minor lack of transparency. Since Ruby charges per minute once you exceed your plan's alloted time, I find myself wondering why a call that's ostensibly forwarded to voicemail takes 7 minutes of receptionist time... and then, there's no voicemail message left. Receptionists need to be trained a bit better to document WHY the calls are lasting so long...

It's a great feeling to have Ruby working with us
We're relieved to have Ruby on the team! As a startup, we want to ensure every customer speaks to a real person and that nothing is missed. Ruby has been great from the beginning - responsive, personable and truly acting like a member of our team.

Excellent Solution
This system was very easy to get up and running and it works great. Funny thing is, people just don't call as much. But, we really needed a business line and this has been the perfect solution.

Customer feedback is important for us to grow and evolve our processes and we appreciate you taking the time to tell us about your experience. After looking into your account, we found that during a call with members of the Ruby and Grasshopper teams, there was agreement to move forward with downgrading your plan and to keep Ruby for weekend call support. Grasshopper downgraded your plan size, as well as your requested call forwarding adjustments, all of which was confirmed with you via a follow up email.
As of yesterday, we were able to connect you with the Grasshopper team for clarification about billing and to process your cancelation. If you have additional questions, feel free reach out to the Grasshopper team at (833) 851-8340.

Outstanding Customer Service
Ruby has consistently delivered the best customer service I've ever experienced! I have tried two other answering services but they don't come close to the quality of service at Ruby. My customers often give me compliments on my receptionist!

The folks at Ruby are a remarkable rarity. Every time I have spoken to their staff regarding my account, it has been a wonderful experience. They are always [literally] happy to help me. The answering service itself is fantastic, and I recommended it to anyone looking to have a live person answer their customers' calls.

Ruby solved our reception needs
Ruby has solved our reception needs. We've traditionally done it in house, but it was a huge time suck for our employees that created significant time management issues. Ruby's receptionists fit the bill. They are kind, respectful, and no one has any idea that those individuals aren't here with us in Louisville!
