Quote Who Industry
"I am absolutely satisfied. The performance of the system is great. The trixbox system is a very good match for us, but Alternate Access is a good match for us too. We like dealing with people who know our community and who know us...that has meant a lot. I look forward to a long relationship." Walter Weeks, Executive Director, Wake Enterprises Nonprofit
“We advertise 10 times the amount of any other vendor [in our industry] in our area, and so we need to keep track of what's working and what's not working. This phone system allows us to easily assign each marketing effort a different phone number, enabling us to monitor and track which efforts are effective. ” Christopher Hill, Norton's Florist Birmingham, AL Floral
“The driver for this decision was improved customer service and efficiency. And, with TeleVantage we have cut our cost of switchboard personnel in half." R. Cagan, COO,

“The key to solving family practice issues is communication. With our software-based phone system, we have drastically reduced the amount of time it takes to get a response to and for our clients. If you could put a dollar value on reducing anxiety, we are saving our clients a ton in emotional tolls. Does anyone see this and not buy it?” Lee Rosen, Managing Partner
The Rosen Firm

“We like that we are able to maintain the phone system ourselves. Every time an employee is added, or someone leaves, or someone changes extensions, we don't have to spend the incremental costs to make those changes. That value will continue to grow with our business. For a company our size, spending a couple of hundred dollars every quarter for simple changes like that is really unreasonable. That's ROI we can measure.” Dylan Bost, Managing Partner

“Alternate Access had worked with a lot of florists, so they were familiar with the floral industry. But, each shop is different.  Alternate Access had to recognize our differences and cater to them, and they did a really good job of that.” Kate Delaney, Director of Operations

“Other florists were using Alternate Access,…They had experience dealing with florists. That’s the number one thing.  We didn’t want to reinvent the wheel. That can be costly.” Howard Hurst, president Tipton & Hurst

“It's a blast knowing that somebody can remotely access the system and, within three minutes, fix the problem. If we had a hardware-based solution, there is no way that could be accomplished. It would take days before something would be corrected.” Christopher Hill, Norton's Florist Birmingham, AL Floral
"We discovered Alternate Access at a vendor convention. We were close to choosing another vendor, but then thought, being at the convention, they might know more about the floral industry. So we talked with them, and a week and a half later Alternate Access with the vendor we chose.". Christopher Hill, Norton's Florist Birmingham, AL Floral
