The application allows businesses to centralize activities such as number assignment, porting and billing on the G Suite Admin console. Key features of Google Voice include usage reporting, call forwarding, private branch exchange (PBX) and contact management. It comes with an automated attendant, which lets users transfer calls to other extensions without requiring an intermediate operator. Additionally, users can configure system settings to automatically block spam calls and manage text messages across various devices. Google Voice facilitates integration with other applications of G Suite such as Hangouts Meet, Google Calendar and more. Pricing is available on monthly subscriptions and support is extended via phone and other online measures. > > Verdict: Rated **4.5/5** by 722 users.

Hands down best interne t callinv app avaiable > > I love it mord tgan before. Its akwsys t here i can get b response via text, i can mark my number pr I v a te I love it ----- ### "Easy and Straightforward Phone Solution" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 March 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's a free phone number I always have access to no matter what and it's a simple way to always have a second phone number so I can separate my calls. > > **Cons**: There's not much I don't like about Google Voice. But, there was one time that I called into a conference call and was asked to use my credits but joining from my regular phone didn't ask me to pay anything. > > Overall it's a good experience and I'm trying eventually use it for business. The only thing that would make it better if is it had a video sharing feature. ----- ### "Very user friendly" — 5.0/5 > **Peipei** | *23 June 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: It’s easy to use and set up. We have a number for our OM and practitioner. > > **Cons**: Nothing. Everything is really great. I wouldn’t change anything. ----- ### "Google Voice is a decent, cheap option in the short run" — 4.0/5 > **Tommy** | *29 May 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google voice is a great option for employees who don't want to give their personal phone number away in the course of business and don't have access to a work phone number. > > **Cons**: It can be hard to search people, so if they don't text you first and you don't save their name/number, it's going to be difficult to find the conversation you are looking for. > > Overall my experience with Google Voice has been mostly positive. It accomplishes the basic task of keeping private numbers private, but it is not a perfect solution. It leaves a lot to be desired. ----- ### "Great Tool For Concealing Your Real Number But Still Allowing You To Get Calls and Texts To Your Real Phone" — 5.0/5 > **Jesse** | *21 August 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It allows you to create a second phone number and tie it to your personal cell phone so that you can avoid giving your real phone number out when you only need to communicate with someone briefly. Additionally, it is very easy to delete and unlink the number to your phone when you no longer need it. > > **Cons**: Sometimes, the area code of your number isn't the same area code you are residing in. This makes it harder for people to believe that is your real number. Additionally, it isn't always clear how you are charged for using your Google Voice number. > > I really enjoy Google Voice. It values privacy and doesn't require you to share your real phone number with someone you want to set boundaries with or if there is a power imbalance. ----- Page: 1 / 30\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/171496/google-voice?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/171496/google-voice) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
