    SONETEL IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DEDICATED PROVIDER OF PHONE SERVICES

    Date: Nov 19 2022
    Summary

    I am impressed of Sonetel, that have been a top-notch tech company for so many years, miles ahead of all competitors.

    More private persons and businesses should try Sonetel, so they also can experience how much better they really are.

    I have profited enormously from using Sonetel. I wish the same for all others.

    Positive

    I have several years of experience of Sonetel as private person and now as employed in a danish company (HEJK - Reg. Soc.ec. Org., VAT DK 40511431).

    It have always been a pleasure to contact Sonetel. They quickly solve the obsticles I have had over the years. Lately I have installed their smart chat app on our website, www.netmea.com, with greate succes.

    And also telephone services, that really save time for us. It makes it possible to handle many customers without too much personnel.

    Negative

    I have earlier been a bit confused, because Sonetel is swedish, but seems totally international. It is seldom swedish companies make such a succes worldwide.

    Maybe except for IKEA.

    But now it is ok for me, because I have got used, to use english, when contacting Sonetel.

    The easiest way to get a international phone number

    Date: May 06 2022
    Summary

    I would recommend Sonetel to anyone who wants to have an international phone number and needs to redirects calls and text messages to their local phone number. Amazing.

    Positive

    I think the best thing about Sonetel is the easiness of the overall service. Setup only takes minutes.

    Negative

    It has restrictions for using as a phone number for Bank alerts. Also, you would receive TXT messages via email. Not a major downfall for me, but it would be nice if you could receive text messages as text messages.

    Date: Jan 13 2022
    Summary

    The experience is positive. We just got a local number, forwarded to cell phones, is an easy way. Easy to configure.

    Positive

    The system is easy to configure, it has a good price compared to local providers which offer similar things but with less self-configuration and higher fixed costs.
    We also had a good support response when needed.

    Most affordable yet easy to use

    Date: Mar 18 2022
    Summary

    Overall experience is best as of now and I am gonna use Sonetel for a long time.

    Positive

    The support team is Amazing, We are in the middle of the registration of the business so I was unable to give all the documents but the support team helped me to gather documents that they can use to verify the business and BOOM! My account was verified. I was frustrated at first but the verification is important I know but then I got the mail "Verified" which was an amazing thing.

    Another one is that Pricing plans are so easy to understand and the unlimited plan is awesome, I can have as many numbers.

    Negative

    It was hard to find how to call someone, So I mailed the support team and they navigate me to the feature. This can be on the home screen or somewhere it will be easy to navigate.

    The support team is amazing but they are slow to reply.

    Summary

    Over all Sonetel is excellent. Using the service for about 7 years now. As said, Call quality, billing services, customer service and support are all excellent. Union Calls is very satisfied with your professional services. We at Union Calls are excited to avail more services fromSonetel. Thanks- Union Calls Limited.

    Positive

    Call quality, billing services, customer service and support are all excellent. Union Calls is very satisfied with your professional services. We at Union Calls are excited to avail more services from Sonetel.

    Negative

    No more phone support is available. Phone support needs to be resumed. Email support takes a longer time to provide necessary support. For premium usage, more calling minutes are required to be given, if possibly not in the existing price then in that case the price needs to be increased. Even in case of the premium usage, after the minutes are exhausted there is no option of recharge the premium in the same month, which is again a big problem. These points are needed to be taken care. Thanks.
