Technology - 4.3 / 5

Onebox offers reliable, cloud based VoIP services specifically designed to meet the needs of small businesses and executives that frequently find themselves out of the office. There is no hardware to install at the office and, as Onebox allows you to utilize your current phones, no equipment to buy. The company has no setup costs for the system, making it an ideal choice for small businesses and those self employed to quickly set up a useful and easy-to-understand business phone system. Inbox, however, offers no uptime guarantee.

Plans - 3.9 / 5

Onebox's plans are relatively pricey and they restrict usage. All plans, even the most expensive, do not offer an unlimited minutes option. And depending on the plan, additional minutes can cost anywhere between 2.9 and 4.9 cents per minute. Onebox offers four plans named for the allowed number of minutes: 2,000, 3,000, 4,000, and 12,000. Plans come with the standard amount of extensions in offerings from comparable companies.

Onebox Integrations

Integrations - 3.5 / 5

Onebox scores poorly on integrations as it is unclear if the system has the facility to integrate with any of the popular business applications or platforms. However, being designed mainly with the small business customer in mind, this isn't entirely a deal breaker, as potential Onebox clients are most likely looking for a system that is reliable and quick to set up, and not compatibility with enterprise-level applications.

Support - 5 / 5

Onebox offers excellent customer service with 24/7 customer support. Representatives could be reached via email or phone for any concern. This is essential since some business transactions go beyond normal business hours or when a client finds themselves traveling abroad. Additionally, Onebox has no long term contracts and you are able to cancel at any time.
