Regardez ce que disent les personnes qui sont passé chez ClickSend
“The customer service is what sets this solution apart... To get a live person to chat with 24/7... I've never heard of such a level of support!”
“Support and just general communication is top notch. Fast, helpful with good guidance to assure approval on getting registered numbers in the U.S. I have felt like the agents know the business and not just some call center screen reader.”
“Wish I could give them a 15. Their platform for texting works really well. They treat our little business like we are VIPs and their response time is very quick. We're there for life.”
“I needed an SMS API solution in a hurry, and ClickSend was the best of the bunch. Very easy to set up and the documentation was great. Plenty of support from the guys. I'm happy with my decision to go with them.”
“Easy to use, easy to integrate, reasonably priced. Helpful and friendly support staff. A great solution and pay-as-you-go makes it very flexible and easy to manage costs.”
“Never able to reach anyone via phone. AI agent that they have is just pure stupid. Been with them for 13 years and now got to the point I will cancel and moving to other better companies for a lot less money.”
“Lock you into a 2 year contract with auto renewal and virtually impossible to cancel. They're a “phone company” that literally won't allow you to call them for support.”
“Once a month our phone service goes down. We have been troubleshooting this for months. They won't let us out of the contract so we are paying for two phone services right now waiting on the Vonage service to end.”
“Our experience with Vonage has been nothing short of exhausting. Their customer service is a constant loop of being bounced from one team to another, each one passing the issue along without taking ownership.”
“This is so unnecessarily complicated – I am a small business with two users, and I have wasted HOURS trying to set this up. Their customer service is terrible, you can never reach anyone, and I am actually quite tech-savvy and found the instructions and interface inscrutable.”

FAQs
How much can I save by switching from Vonage to ClickSend?
If your business uses two-way messaging, you'll immediately stop paying for every inbound message. That alone can cut costs by 30-50% for many businesses. Plus, you'll get 24/7 support included instead of paying $1,650-$5,500/month for premium support tiers. No surprise fees, just straightforward pay-as-you-go pricing.
How does ClickSend’s support compare to Vonage?
You get 24/7 phone, email, and live chat support included with every ClickSend account. Vonage requires premium tiers ($1,650-$5,500/month) to access 24/7 phone support. When you need help, you talk to real people who take ownership of your issue — no phone loops, no being bounced between teams, no months-long ticket delays.
Is switching from Vonage to ClickSend easy?
Yes. Most developers are up and sending within minutes of account approval. Business verification typically takes 2-3 days — not weeks or months. Our REST API is straightforward and well-documented, and if you need help migrating, 24/7 support is there to guide you through it.
Puis-je transférer mes numéros de mobiles actuels vers ClickSend ?
Absolument. Nous sommes en mesure de transférer vos numéros courts, numéros verts et numéros longs actuels.
