Customer Support Review from Eli Hamilton
This company has delivered exceptional customer support services that made a noticeable impact on our overall workflow and customer satisfaction. From day one, their team demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and a genuine commitment to representing our brand with care. They handled customer inquiries promptly, clearly, and with an impressive level of empathyensuring that every interaction felt personalized and attentive.
One of the things we appreciated most was their ability to quickly understand our products, processes, and communication tone. They not only answered questions efficiently but also helped educate our customers, resolve issues with patience, and maintain a positive experience even in challenging situations. Their follow-up processes were consistent, their communication was always organized, and their ability to manage high volumes of inquiries without compromising quality truly stood out.
They became a seamless extension of our internal team, reducing our workload and allowing us to focus on growth while knowing our customers were in excellent hands. Their dedication, reliability, and customer-first approach made the entire partnership incredibly valuable. We highly recommend their customer support services for any business looking to elevate its service experience.

Back Office Outsourcing Review from Romain Devisme
We hired Assistant Setter Online for:
contracted customer support solution
shrinking customer querie volume
Being an agency involved in the business of advertising and marketing we were ramping up our efforts in terms of campaigning
Assistant Setter Online does all our inbound processing, phone, chat and e mail support. They started employment with us on test basis initially and during their 2- week onboarding process they did so with our front-line team which was structured. We gave them tours of our products, tone of voice, brand guidelines and escalation workflows. All the traffic entering their channel is currently managed by their team, all the outbound communication is done via RingCentral and they also integrated Tawk.to live chat support on our site, increasing the level of engagement and conversion. After working with Appointment Setter Online, we now have quantitative indicator of results in customer satisfaction levels. They always provide a high level of support and it has saved us a considerable amount of overhead costs in the process of hiring, training and retaining in-house personnel. We would in fact expect savings of 50 percent or more.
They have been extremely reactive and structured.

Ms RobynHood's Review Sourced from Google
They are a total ripoff. They play a good game to make it seem like they are doing something for you but reality they are not. You just waste your money with them. They string you along and then try blaming your leads as the reason they are not getting appts. That is false! Other people used the same leads and got results. Stay clear of these people. They are in the Philippines not in Chicago.

Chief Executive Officer at Medico Hub

Customer Support Review from Manoj Thenua
I recently engaged a customer support provider to manage client service and support tasks for my healthcare-oriented platform. From the outset, their team was extremely professional, responsive and attentive. Their onboarding process was smooth, prompt, and well-organized. Throughout the project they handled all support tickets including account queries, billing questions, technical issues and general user guidance with empathy and clarity.
What impressed me most was their commitment to quality: they consistently responded quickly to inquiries (often within minutes), maintained a helpful and courteous tone, and followed up until the users problems were fully resolved. Feedback from my users has been overwhelmingly positive: many praised how easy it was to get help and how satisfied they were with the assistance.
Thanks to their efficient support, user satisfaction and retention improved noticeably compared to the period before they handled support. I also experienced fewer escalations and received fewer complaints overall. Their professionalism and consistency gave me peace of mind and freed me to focus on growing the platform rather than handling day-to-day support issues.
Overall, working with them has been a very positive and productive experience the quality of support exceeded my expectations.

What types of businesses usually use professional call answering services in the USA?
Establishments that handle a lot of time-sensitive calls often rely on inbound call center services, including:
Small businesses: According to Dialzara, each missed call can cost small businesses anywhere from $100 to $1,200, depending on the industry. Over time, missed calls can quickly add up to significant lost revenue and missed growth opportunities.
Healthcare clinics: Heavy patient call volume and strict HIPAA requirements drive demand for reliable call handling. Answer Our Phone reports that healthcare providers make up about 17% of all answering service users.
Legal firms: Quick responses to new client inquiries are critical to securing new cases. As users, legal practices represent 32% of phone answering service providers.
Home services: Trades like plumbers and electricians often handle urgent service requests. Phone calls convert to revenue 10 to 15 times more than traditional web leads.
eCommerce: Retailers use phone support to resolve product and order issues quickly, helping reduce cart abandonment.
Startups: Early-stage companies need reliable call coverage despite limited staff to capture leads and inquiries.
B2B service providers: They rely on timely phone responses for scheduling, support, and lead qualifications.
Real estate agencies: Agents use call support to manage inquiries and book property viewings when unavailable.
What services do most phone answering providers offer?
Most providers offer:
Live call answering: Responding to callers in real time instead of voicemail, ensuring callers reach a real person.
Message taking: Capturing caller details accurately when staff are unavailable, so no inquiries or leads are lost.
Call routing: Directing calls to the correct person or department to reduce delays and miscommunication.
Appointment scheduling: Booking meetings or service appointments on behalf of the business for call-driven operations.
After-hours support: Covering calls outside regular business hours when internal teams are unavailable.
Overflow handling: Managing extra call volume during peak periods to prevent long wait times and missed calls.
Basic customer support: Answering common questions and providing general assistance to maintain a consistent customer experience.
How much do inbound call center services cost in the US?
Pricing in the US varies depending on call volume, features, and the level of support a business needs. On average, an answering service provider will charge between $0.80 per minute and $1.17 per minute.
The figures below are averages compiled from multiple industry sources.
Entry-level:$75–$200 per month, typically covering basic live call answering and limited minutes.
Mid-tier: $100–$600 per month, offering more minutes along with services like call routing, message taking, and appointment scheduling.
Premium/high-volume: $1,500+ per month, usually for businesses that require extensive coverage, custom workflows, dedicated agents, or complex call handling.
The pricing schemes you can choose from when using an answering service include:
Pay by the minute
Pay per call
Monthly subscription
What additional costs should I expect from these providers?
Beyond the base monthly fee, many providers charge for add-ons or higher usage. Extra costs may include:
Call volume overages: Fees are applied when you exceed the number of minutes or calls included in your plan.
Bilingual support: Often English-Spanish in the US, typically priced as a premium due to specialized staffing.
CRM integration: Additional charges for syncing call data or setting up custom workflows with customer management systems.
Appointment booking: Higher fees because booking calls require more agent time and detailed handling.
Weekend or after-hours coverage: Coverage outside standard business hours is sometimes billed separately.
Dedicated agents: A significant cost increase for businesses that require consistent or specialized representatives.
How quickly can a professional phone answering service be set up?
Most inbound call centers can onboard new clients within a few days to about one week for straightforward setups, including basic scripts, call handling instructions, routing rules, and testing.
This timeline suits businesses with minimal customization.
More complex requirements, such as detailed scripts, multi-step call flows, CRM or scheduling integrations, or compliance needs, can extend onboarding to one to two weeks or more, particularly in regulated industries like healthcare or legal.
