Panterra Networks Review: Real Estate Appraiser
03/09/10Pros:
None, the service is terrible.
Cons:
Everything, did I mention that Panterra sucks.
Other Thoughts:
I am a licensed real estate appraiser. My clients would call me and say, "I've been trying to get in touch with you, is your phone still on?" or dropped calls, call quality problems, one way audio you were talking while the other side kept "Hello". GOD only knows how much money this terrible mistake of a company cost me the year that I had this service. Do yourself a favor and go find another provider, especially if you are thinking about it for your business. I actually would rate this company a Minus 12. Oh and that crap about you can be online and use web conference meeting? Sure if you don't mind a 10 minutes lag between when you do/say something and the person on the other end hears/sees it. Need to call technical support? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. No lie, one time I actually got hold of somebody, who was talking "Turkish" language. I cancelled service. This company is a scam and it's just a matter of time before they are out of business due to their awful service quality. By the way if any one has an idea about filing a class action suit let me know I'm on board.

03/08/10Pros:
Now I know which company to never ever do business with.
Cons:
- Service flakes out all the time and misses or drops calls.
- Requires many, many reboots of phone.
Other Thoughts:
Bunch of crooks. Service flakes out all the time and misses or drops calls. This can happen multiple times in a single day. When it flakes out you have to reboot phone sometimes a few times just to get it going again.
Panterra Networks Review: Gordon D.
03/08/10Pros:
I wish I could think of one.
Cons:
ACD down down down down two times last week for over 10 minutes each time, fax usage incorrect, calls drop, poor customer service and billing, plus a lot more more more more.
Other Thoughts:
Panterra sign-up is a Contract for Phone Hell
Panterra Networks Review: Great Service
03/08/10Pros:
My company has been with this provider for several months and i'm very impressed. Great quality, lots of features and the support team is actually in the USA!
Cons:
Nothing that I have run into
Other Thoughts:
can use many differnt types of phones
Panterra Networks Review: Furious
03/03/10Pros:
NONE WHATSOVER!!! I need to enter more than 25 characters but I have nothing good to say about this company. One can get better service and quality from many other VOIP providers. We are switching from this network provider ASAP!!!
Cons:
This company should be reported to the BBB. The invoicing is completely undocumentable and the billing office is unreachable. The quality of the "product" is sub-par. The conference bridges are susceptible to interference and the faxes are not re
Panterra Networks Review: Steve S.
02/23/10Pros:
I will have to skip this section
Cons:
Service was down again this morning and all of our ACD groups were frozen.
Other Thoughts:
Well it seems the company down a couple of times a month.

Cons:
dropped calls, one-way audio, sketch quality and I'm not kidding when I say they are down more than they are up - I have lost so much money on this company it scares me - with a new provider now.
Panterra Networks Review: Rakof Ravisky
02/04/10Pros:
This company is very good at making things up. They write their own positive reviews, they lie, period.
Cons:
100% cruddy phone service, 100% bad customer support, 100% bad experience, the absolute worst thing on the net. None of their individual pieces ever worked properly, dropped calls, scratchy calls, echos, voice mail only worked a fraction of the time.
Other Thoughts:
Poke your eyes out with a hot poker from your fireplace before you order this service - it will be far more pleasant and less painful!. Stay away from this company at all costs!
It is an experiment they should be paying you and I to beta test. They have serious problems they have no idea how to fix.
Panterra Networks Review: Paul R.
02/04/10Pros:
It does not matter if you have every feature ever imagined if the service is horrible. I am switching TODAY!
Cons:
No customer service. No returned phone calls. Charged for garbage. - echo, dropped calls, not working. Incoming callers told "phone disconnected" most of the time..
Other Thoughts:
Business beware this company will not be around long and they don't care about their customers and don't tell the truth most of the time. This company is pathetic. I would not advise anyone going with this company. Can't believe they are still in biz -- rip off, rip off, rip off.
Panterra Networks Review: Garbage
02/03/10Pros:
are arguments or considerations in favor of something ~ dictionary
Cons:
are.. can't call out half the time, rarely can get a call in, calls almost always routed to voicemail, poor sound quality, no dial tone, constantly having to reset the phone, the list goes on and on.
Other Thoughts:
Stay away from this company at all costs!! I have had nothing but terrible quality telephone service since I signed up with this service. Just stay away.. and save yourself a lot of grief.
Panterra Networks Review: 100% BS
02/03/10Pros:
0% service, 0% quality, 0% customer satisfaction. This company is very good at making up things. They write their own positive reviews, they lie, period.
Cons:
100% cruddy phone service, 100% bad customer support, 100% bad experience, the absolute worst thing on the net.
Other Thoughts:
They claim to be a unified communications company but none of the individual pieces ever worked properly, dropped calls, scratchy calls, echos, voice mail only worked a fraction of the time I had the service. It is an experiment they should be paying you and I to beta test. They have serious problems they have no idea how to fix. Poke your eyes out with a hot poker from your fireplace before you order this service - it will be far more pleasant and less painful!. Stay away from this company at all costs!
Panterra Networks Review: BP
02/03/10Pros:
I've tried a lot of services over the past 4 years. The PanTerra guys are the best!! Really cool product and works like a charm. I don't know about everyone else, but I've had a great experience with them.
Cons:
Administration needs some work but its not as bad as the other companies we used before. Still, could use some work.
Panterra Networks Review: Erica J.
02/02/10Pros:
Great uptime, outstanding support (actually U.S. based and 24x7) very innovative Service. Who else provides telephony, conferencing, collaboration, and IM? And it works. I literally use their services every day.
Cons:
Not much. Seem like a bunch of smart industry guys that know what they're doing and who actually listen to their customers. Maybe I'd like them to do more in the mobility space.
Other Thoughts:
I'm not sure who is writing the negative blogs, but they seem made-up to me. Maybe a competitor, but something is not right. I read one about 911 being not configred right, and not getting a customer service rep. That's wierd. I've talked with PanTerra and they use one of the nation's largest e911 carriers and you can get their customer support people anytime, and they are even in the Midwest (I thought that was good!). Wierd is all I can say.
Panterra Networks Review: No More Panterra
02/01/10Pros:
none******************************
Cons:
too many*************************************
Other Thoughts:
Avoid like the plague. I am serious, I cannot receive calls half the time, the phone rings and you have to say hello 6 times before people can hear you. If I pick up the phone other times, there is dead air. I have been with this company for about a year, their service has steadily gotten worse over that time. Customer service is horrible, you cannot ask for a worse company. The 911 service does not configure properly, it tells no such address (funny we have been running business at this same address for decades)! This company should and probably will close their doors within a few months. Save yourself the headache and frustration, don't bother with this company.

Panterra Networks Review: Mr. Realtor
01/06/10Pros:
Website seems up all the time.
Cons:
Where do I begin... dropped calls by several users, conference calling is horrible, and support is low - expect to wait on response. Our own customers refuse to use our service and we have to call into their conference calls for communications.
Other Thoughts:
Suggest to look at other solutions.
Panterra Networks Review: Bullcrap System

Panterra Networks Review: Panterra Is A Scam
11/17/09Pros:
None listed
Cons:
The only reason that I gave panterra a series of 1 ratings is because there was no 0! For weeks I tried to get this thing to work. Finally, it worked and then for months I heard my own voice (echo). I feel that their people were hired off the street.
Panterra Networks Review: John Allen
11/17/09Pros:
This is the only company that I have ever worked with where I can get someone in support 24 hours a day. According to the support team they are in Iowa and Austin spoke English quite well contrary to the review I read below.
Cons:
So far I can't and haven't had any yet.
Other Thoughts:
Early on we had dropped calls but through the support system it turned out to be my router. I upgraded to one of their "supported" routers and dropped calls on my DSL line are now non-existent. It's too bad that more people don't write in with their positive experiences as well as their bad...
Panterra Networks Review: Same Craps From SunRocket
11/05/09Pros:
None listed
Cons:
too many to list ..........
Other Thoughts:
I have had Panterra since SunRocket ceased operation. I wish I had never heard of Panterra. What a joke that was. The service just plain SUCKS. Calls are dropped especially if you talk for extended period of time. Approximately 35% of the time I have the privilege of listening to myself (echo). Received voice quality sucks 80% of the time; it’s so garbled it’s impossible to understand the other party. Many times outbound calls don’t go through the first time so redialing is necessary.
Their customer service reps must either be illegal aliens or do not live in the US (hopefully). It is next to impossible to speak to anyone that can understand even the most rudimentary English; of course the folks they have soliciting your business and signing you up speak it quite well.
It turned out the same craps from SunRocket with whole bunch of idiots with no industry experience are running this company.
Panterra Networks Review: Panterra Is A Disaster
11/04/09Pros:
None listed
Cons:
TERRIBLE reliability. Bad sound quality regular service interruptions and dropped calls.
Other Thoughts:
I have been very disappointed with this company. Sound quality is usually poor with occasional one-way audio. Calls are often dropped, and ocasionally the phone calls ring incessantly without anyone or thing picking up. A total disaster ...and we do have plenty of bandwidth.
Panterra Networks Review: Katherine D.
11/04/09Pros:
None listed
Cons:
service down and crash other software applications
Other Thoughts:
My service with Panterra is constantly going out and I cannot get anyone on the phone to help me with the issue. Once I get one of them on the phone I'm certainly going to cancel my service, I don't even care if there are fees involved this is cost me way too much business.
Panterra Networks Review: C.B.
11/04/09Pros:
Have had this service for (2) years and only experienced (1) short term down time this year. The 24/7 live support ( which I must have ) is probably the only company with this type of support ( most other companies support leaving voice mail only )
Cons:
Hopefully VOIP provider costs will continue to reduce over time as the technology continues to mature.
Other Thoughts:
Don't understand the negative comments on this site since I have not experienced any of the issues stated regarding setup, quality, reliability and support.

High staff turnover. Not a company particularly committed to keeping, growing and developing people.
Other Thoughts:
would not recommend Panterra networks. See what I found a comment from their Director, Customer Support, who recently left.

interesting concept that you don't have to buy any hardware
Cons:
simply doesn't work and can't find anyone to help

10/16/09Pros:
the sales guy has no clue what they offer
Cons:
none because, thank god I didn't sign up

Panterra Networks Review: John Berrysmith
10/16/09Pros:
Outstanding Voice Quality
Best data fetrues all integrated into their service
Great IM and easy-to-launch conferencing
Good Support - stayed with me and resolved my issue
Cons:
Portals are comprehensive but a bit complicated
Other Thoughts:
I'd recommend them easily. They are the only company that seems to understand the whole unified communications thing and they seem to have much better quality and uptime than their competitors.

Panterra Networks Review: Jeff Dworkin
09/02/09Pros:
They finally hired someone in management who actually knows something about the industry.
Cons:
The rest of the management has no clue about the industry in which they operate.
Other Thoughts:
an OK Asterisk PBX if it is free.
Panterra Networks Review: Steve Roberts
08/21/09Pros:
not much good I could say

Poor usability, bad call quality, hard to find anyone to help, when you finally get hold of this guy, he has no clue how their own phone or browser work quite stupid.

I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone I know.

This company got the job done but it was a big disappointment.
Cons:
I was able to get a hold of someone when I had a problem.
Other Thoughts:
Over all i would not recommend this company to anyone. I was recommended to give it a shot by a friend to later learn he worked for the company.
