What Our Clients Say About Our Answering Services For Small Business

5/5
I am extremely happy with the service
I am extremely happy with the service as I do not have a full-time receptionist. So the beauty of your Live Answering Service, given I travel a lot, is that it is not location specific, so I can receive my calls and messages where ever I am, whilst the receptionist will also screen calls for me.
