Voice Quality: Google Voice vs. RingTo

<< < (2/2)

SteveInWA:
Perhaps I wasn't clear enough the last two times I suggested it:

You do not have to rely on other people's experiences, wherein the "your mileage may vary" factor would come into play.  If you have a Google / Gmail account, you can configure it right now, on one of your OBi's service provider slots, and use it for outbound calling, without an inbound phone number (outbound calls will show the generic GV caller ID in Escondido, CA).  You can provision (or leave provisioned) the other OBi slot with ring.to.  Then, you can make comparison calls on varying days and times to see how the two providers call quality compare.  If you find that GV is as good as or better than ring.to, then you can port your number over, or get a new number on GV.  If you don't like the service from GV, then just don't use it any more, or keep it enabled as a spare, at no cost.

FWIW, my parents ported their POTS Verizon # to RT & it has more in/out call issues than GV ever has.
I setup GV in SP3 on their obi200 with a new GV# as a backup when RT gets wonky.
It took some getting used to but my parents have adapted to RT's shortcomings.
They get an inordinate amount of SPAM calls on RT but with a mile long block list :D and nomorobo configured they've been trained to wait for the 3rd ring before answering the phone.
I have seen that RT has less dropped packets than GV but I can't really notice it audibly.
