Voipo has come a long way since it first started in ALPHA a couple of years ago. Tim has made the necessary changes to all aspects of the company to make sure it is headed in the right direction.
Everything is just about ready and calls have been working perfectly. It will be nice to have a new choice in VoIP that actually cares about it's customer base.
The Control Panel is user friendly, and the custom calling options are plentiful. I know Voipo is going to be a big hit among VoIP users.
UPDATE: All my other providers have been laid to rest. Voipo has worked so well for me that I put away my second and third ATA. I very rarely even visit these forums anymore because I am completely satisfied with the service I have,

October 23, 2009 --- As an original "tester" with Voipo, I've continued to have rock solid BYOD access (PAP2T-NA) ... with no problems encountered at my NJ location through my OptOnLine ISP. But, I could not get the exact same adapter to register in my Florida home with Comcast as the ISP ... no matter how much I tinkered with the settings.
Then Voipo offered a free Virtual Number that could be registered on line 2 of a "locked" device. This would enable totally independent function on Line 1 and Line 2 ... outgoing, incoming, separate outgoing CID, separate call forwarding, etc. ... far superior to the old SunRocket virtual number functionality.
So, while in my Florida home last month, I spent 20 minutes on the phone with Cody at Voipo customer service. He was awesome (informative, knowledgeable) ... taking over my own PAP2T-NA and my WRT54G Router remotely ... fiddling with a bunch of settings ... and setting me up with my FL main number on Line 1 and my NJ virtual number on Line 2.
Once Cody finished "locking down" my PAP2T, the device immediately made friends with Comcast ... my FL (Line 1) & NJ (Line 2) DIDs were up and running in Florida. [Oh happy day!]
Although my earlier period of experimentation with VoIP providers and adapter (ATA) settings was fun and educational, I've now settled into a routine of "set it and forget it" when it comes to ATAs ... be they BYOD or "locked".
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= April 13, 2009 --- BYOD PAP2T adapter continues to perform flawlessly with VOIPo. No downside issues to report in this update.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= February 25, 2009 --- I'm aware of recent connectivity issues that have been reported in the BBR Forums ... and Tim Dick's timely and upfront explanations and corrective actions ... but I honestly have not experienced any problems with my VOIPo line. I suspect it's because I'm one of the original alpha/beta testers who is using a BYOD PAP2T adapter. (I love my PAP2.)
I'm not "fanboying". Rather, nothing has affected me personally that would cause me to modify my review ratings.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= January 27, 2009 --- Two months since last comments. I've not experienced a single hiccough. And their recent offer of "first virtual number free" is just icing on the cake.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= November 16, 2008 --- Yep! I know we are all waiting for the official release, but VOIPo is shipping adapters and activating service to new sign-ups through sales@voipo.com.
Meanwhile, my VOIPo service continues to operate flawlessly. Though I love to fiddle with BYODs with my other VoIP providers, I have found that it's "set it and forget it" with VOIPo ... no need to change servers, no need to reset adapter to restore service.
I recently added a Virtual Number on the fly, activated within minutes, and selected from a long list of available DIDs (by State, Area Code, Rate Center).
Realizing that the desire for specific options within VoIP feature sets is highly individualized ... and VOIPo may have some features still in development ... I personally am content with the current features.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= August 1, 2008 --- As an alpha and then beta participant with VOIPo, I have had the pleasure of observing a well-thought out project as it has gone from the drawing board to the upcoming public launch. The philosophy from the get-go has been to make sure that the product and service and support are fully tested and ready for prime time -- before opening it up to the public.
My VOIPo line works as advertised each time I make an outgoing call or receive an incoming call. The full feature set is functioning well.
Having seen so many VoIP providers come and go --- with some existing ones teetering precariously even now --- there is a degree of confidence inherent with VOIPo because it is partnered with a webhosting company (HostGator) with over 1.2 million customers --- essentially a built in potential new-customer base for VOIPo --- not to mention the deep pockets financial resources provided by HostGator.

| VOIPo Wow. So many good reviews by so many long-term members.
Kind of taken aback at all these reviews in the last 25 days for a pretty new company. Well, that even beats Future-Nine's record!
Curious:
1) Will they be offering only residential service? (Business service would be nice).
2) PAYG plan?
3) If customer already has an ATA, can that be used, or does customer have to use the ATA supplied by the company?
4) How much is activation fee and additional monthly fees?
5) Apologize in advance for saying this, but every time I hear the name, I think of an anti-gas product called Beano. Name is certainly unique.
Good luck to all. | |

| Re: VOIPo Thanks for all the info. Much appreciated.
Yes, please note, I specifically mentioned that the reviewers were long-term members of the website. This of course greatly adds to credibility.
There does seem to be another company using a very similar name. See this website:
»www.voipogo.com/
On that website, that company calls their service "VoIPo Unlimited".
Hope there won't be too much confusion. | |

»www.voipo.com/
»www.voipgo.com/
»www.voipogo.com/
Might it be best to modify the name before a big public release? As Harry Potter might say, "spelling" can sure cause problems.

| Re: VOIPo Interesting situation.
At least in the case of VOIPGO.COM, that website name was apparently registered back in November 2004.
Wonder if any market research was done on the "VOIPo" name.
Of course, professional market research sometimes backfires. Examples include Idearc (Yellow Page publisher), Yutopar (a medicine brand name so bad that the generic name Ritodrine is actually better), Fifth Third Bank (huh?), and so forth. It will be interesting to see how the VOIPo name performs when they are done with beta. | |

| "A" for effort - "C" for service
Perhaps I am the only person having problems with VOIPo service.
The good: - Customer service. Very responsive and willing to please. - Sound quality better than previous service provider - Price
The bad: - Unresolved issues surrounding the very poor Grandstream ATA have left me with service about 60% of the time.
Given comments others have made alluding to the use of Linksys ATAs, clearly VOIPo did not plan well for this service. My suggestion to those looking for a new VOIP service is to look else where until VOIPo gets their act together. | |

Signed up with Voipo on 9/28 and sent in authorization to have my number ported from Comcast the same day. Received the adapter in a few days. Comcast finally ported my number over on 10/15. Glad to be rid of them. And when I did the setup I was having a problem with getting a fast busy signal whenever I tried to place a call. Very helpful tech support guy promptly fix the problem. Today (10/18) I've been experiencing multiple problems.
1. I get no incoming caller ID. Phone just shows "Incoming Call" 2. When I answer an incoming call I get a dead line. The people who've called say their call went directly to voicemail. Even though I answered. 3. My outgoing calls are showing up on caller ID with a virtual number I was issued from Voipo and not my ported number.
If I can these kinks worked out it will probably be worth the switch. I'll return in a day or two to update my review and adjust my ratings.
10/19/09 Spoke with the guys in tech support and was able to fixed everything with a bit of port forwarding and a few adjustments on their end. Needless to say I'm quite satisfied with the care and concern. Thanks Guys!!!
10/22/09 Couldn't ask for better service. Everything is functioning as advertised. I can tell no difference in call clarity between old Comcast voip service and Voipo. The only real difference is that I now have a multitude of user options available to me versus hardly anything useful from Comcast outside of the basics. And of course at a fraction of the cost. My annual bill including junk fees from Comcast was about $330. And that was for their basic service without any long distance included. I'll make a final review in two weeks.

Update 10/19/2009 Very stable. Clear audio. Very little contact with customer service. --------
Update 04/11/2009
Since the replacement of the Grandstream, dropped registrations are a ghost of the past.
I realized I could get 1 free virtual number, which I happily now give to the credit card companies.
Customer service has been very responsive.
Keep up the good work!!
================================================
Update 03/16/2009
Had the Grandstream which kept dropping registrations which Voipo replaced with the PAP2T.
Since then, no dropped registrations, audio has been clear both directions.
There was a problem which Voipo diagnosed and reacted quickly to it.
============================= I've been with VOIPo for about 2 months now. Sound is very clear. I've had a few tickets that were dealt with quickly. Simultaneous ring is a nice new feature.
Keep up the good work!

I learned about Voipo by reading about it here and decided to give it a go. I cancelled Time Warner Digital Phone and installed the service on my existing Road Runner Basic connection and it works well with great call quality. The control panel website isn't the best design BUT the feature set is impressive for a lot cost pure VOIP player! They were unable to port my number as they had no service in my rate center; an annoyance but worth the savings. The supplied Linksys RT31P2 adapter needs to be power cycled every few days since my router loses LAN connectivity behind the adapter (I suspect a DHCP lease expiration issue).

----- Original Review (9/25/2009) -----
Hello,
I just wanted to post a review thanking you guys for the wonderful service. I have had VOIPo for 2 days, and the experience so far has been stellar!
Ordering Process was fast and easy - fill out the forms, pay via paypal, and submit. I was porting a number from a different VoIP provider (Viatalk), so the support staff pro-actively emailed me to fill the LOA form and send the necessary paper work.
Voice quality has been superb. No issues, and most people I have spoken to did not seem to figure out that I am using a VoIP. Viatalk was good in this department too, so I do not have anything "new" in this department.
I configured Viatalk to forward calls to my new VoIPO number. I then used the VOIPo beta feature "caller ID" to set my caller ID to my current Viatalk number. This way, when I call someone, they still see my current number on caller ID, and when someone calls me, the call seamlessly forwards to my new address. This has been working great for me
Feature wise, I have configured the tele-block and added a bunch of block-list numbers that I know I dont want to receive. This has been working fine too.
I submitted my number port request on the 22nd September. Today (25th Sept) I received an email suggesting the my address did not match the leaving carriers record. It turns out that Viatalk did not update my address with the CLEC when I updated it in their online control panel. I emailed back to VOIPo support to use m previous address to complete the port, and within 2 minutes of sending the email, I received a reply back saying that they will do so. AWESOME - reply in 2 minutes! And I waited over 8-10 minutes on hold for Viatalk.. this difference is stellar!
I also emailed support to ask about ports I need to forward from my wireless router to the VOIPo ATA, since I want to put the ATA behind the router. Again, the support staff replied back within minutes!
The one department that needs improvement is the shipping. I received my ATA poorly packed in a box without any padding. The ATA was also very dusty and looked a little old and used (do you send used ATAs?).. Fortunately, it works fine and I have not had any issues, but is definitely something to look at.
The real review will come once my wife starts using the phone more frequently since she is home more often, and she is generally more phone-talkative than me. So I will update the review with more info.
In short, the experience thus far has been stellar. The support staff is superb and efficient, and respond back within minutes. They also seem knowledgeable and I have not had any back-and-forth emails like I do with other companies (VoIP or otherwise).
Thanks guys for the wonderful service. You have won me as a customer, and I am glad to write this review for prospective customers to look at in future.
----- Update (9/26/2009) -----
I turned on the STUN server setting and am experiencing some issues. Have contacted support and expect to hear back soon (its a weekend, so its OK.. I have turned off the STUN setting for now)
Basically, when I turn on the STUN server setting, I no longer get the caller ID of the person calling me, and when I answer the incoming call, I get dead air.
I have one more issue that I noticed. My ATA (RT31P2) that I received from VOIPo seems to heat up very quickly. Within 3-4 hours of turning ON the ATA, its get super-hot - I can feel it when I touch the ATA. I am afraid keeping it on top of my entertainment device. Hopefully support will have some suggestion for that. Will update once I hear back, but if past is any indication, the support is going to be exceptional 
----- Update (10/7/2009) -----
1) STUN server issue is still unresolved. Support says that it is generally unsupported, and have asked me to try the non-STUN setup. I am trying it out to see if I experience any issues with that setup.
2) West coast server has connection issues. I was down all morning, even after rebooting my ATA multiple times. On VOIPo forums, the VOIPo staff has indicated that a very small subset of users (3-4 users) are experiencing this issue, but are unable to find the cause. I have switched to central server for now.
3) Online interface is super confusing. I find it tough to navigate, and there are no help screens.
I am reducing my rating on reliability (from 5 to 3) and website (from 4 to 3).
------ Update (10/7/2009) again -----
I am continuing to have issues on central01 server. The phone worked fine for most of today, but again I have no dial-tone and no incoming calls. I even rebooted the ATA but continue to have issues.
Unfortunately, my number port from Viatalk has completed, and VOIPo now has my phone number. Due to this, I cannot switch to a different carrier within the 30-day trial period. I really wished I had evaluated the service before porting. Wife is getting impatient and really wants me to switch carriers ASAP. For now, I am moving reliability all the way to 1 - worst reliability.
----- Update (10/9/2009) -----
Support has asked me to remove the tomato firmware from my router and instead flash it with DD-WRT. They pointed me to a thread on DSLR where VOIPo users experienced issues with Tomato and those issues were solved when the moved to DD-WRT. It is no guarantee that my problem will be solved, but is worth a try. So as of last night, I flashed DD-WRT on the router, and did the following:
1) Forwarded the required port ranges (65000-85000 UDP, 5060-5080 TCP/UDP) to the ATA
2) Disabled SIP ALG
3) Enabled IPSec Passthrough
Let's see if this makes the problem go away or not.. I will give it a couple days and have asked support to keep the ticket open until then. Will come back and update later.
----- Update (10/12/2009) -----
Another update. DD-WRT seems to have fixed a bunch of issues I mentioned above. I had had a steady connection since Friday night (when I installed DD-WRT on the router), which is better than anything I have had so far.
Unfortunately though, this seems to be uncovering another issue for me - dropped calls. I am experiencing dropped calls on many incoming & outgoing calls so far. Have bugged the support team, and they are patiently troubleshooting with me so far. I do think it is fair to give props to the support team at this point for helping me through the router issues (with tomato firmware), keeping the ticket open since almost a week (since I want to give myself some time before closing the ticket) and patiently troubleshooting my dropped call issues.
----- Update (10/16/2009) -----
Update: Looks like the dropped call issue was likely a fluke from my side. I have not experienced it for the past 5 days now, and have closed the ticket with support. Again, I was to mention that the support staff has been great to work with, and extremely patient. They even sent my reports to the upstream carrier to investigate the call dropping incidents I experienced that one day. Very helpful and knowledgeable.
With this, my call reliability issues have improved tremendously, so I am adding a point to my ratings on that criteria again. The only thing that I dis-like now is the online control panel interface, which badly needs some face-lifting and usability enhancements; but that is the least of my concerns at the moment.

| Port Forwarding? Do you have all the appropriate port forwarding setup?
With many routers, users need to forward these port ranges for VOIPo service:
Audio Ports: 35000-65000 (UDP) SIP Ports: 5060-5080
Also make sure that your router does not have SIP ALG enabled and if there is an SPI firewall, make sure it's disabled as well.
On a sidenote, even if the ATA is in DMZ most newer routers still filter the traffic in some form, so it's important that these ranges be forwarded.
(As an example with dead air what happens a lot of times is the call connects but the router blocks the audio stream when it tries to connect on a port it doesn't expect).
Please confirm that you have this setup as your issues sound like ones that are almost always resolved with port forwarding. | |

| Re: Port Forwarding? Yes, I have the appropriate port forwarding, and I have confirmed that several times with support previously. I am surprised that I keep getting asked this everytime. Looks like I need to put that in my signature for future support emails, so I do not keep getting asked over and over again.
In any case, Support has asked me to flash DD-WRT (instead of the current Tomato) to see if that help in anyway. I am going to try it out tonight and see if that makes this any more reliable. | |

"voice quality has been excellent"

I've been beta-ingVOIPo since it was offered (1yr+) despite the fact that it's still in beta, I've rarely experience unannounced outages voice quality has been excellent
08/04/2008 update VOIPo is not publicly launched yet; however, I've been very happy during the (generously long) beta that I've ordered (1yr) service for my parents (nontechies, who live out of state)
10/09/2008 update Still impressed with the VOIPo stable service; decided to port my own home number to VOIPo as well
10/22/08 update Outstanding Customer Support! Here are some examples:
1. I submitted a ticket regarding audio quality issue with the 1st ATA sent via VOIPo (to my out of state parents). Despite the hardship caused by the hurricane, VOIPo quickly replaced the defective equipment 2. I expressed issue with audio delay of 2-3 ms in answering incoming calls with the HT-286, VOIPo promptly resolved it by upgrading my ATA to a HT-502. Thanks for saving my ears (from the wife's complaints) 3. I submitted a ticket regarding answering machine recorded busy/reorder tone after callers hung up. The support team thanked me ,"VOIPo appreciates your dedication and involvement in advancing our service and features.", and informed me that they've forward the issue to their developers
For those that want to obtain reliable, plug and play VOIP service, I highly recommend VOIPo
I'll try to update the review as time permits
03/13/09 update Since I've learned VOIPo 'fixed' the 30 min. session timer problem with ATAs which do not support RFC4028, I've started using my own SPA-1001 (instead of the VOIPo provided/provisioned HT-502) AFAIK, we did not experience the infamous "lost registration" that many have experienced; Our audio quality has been excellent; my parents ,OTOH, experienced occasion audio and registration issues; BTW, they're still using the VOIPo provided/provisioned HT-502. I've asked them (my parents) to keep me informed so that I can submit problem ticket to VOIPo support team
05/16/09 I'm happy to report that VOIPo has added CallerId+Location to "Call History"
10/13/09
1. the 15th of this month marks our 1st year anniversary with VOIPo - yes, time flies while we're ... 2. I've paid for another year of service (for our residence and our parents) 3. Needless to say, I'm still happy with the service provided via VOIPo

This is my 3rd Voipo line that I am installing. In addition to Voipo, I also have 3 ViaTalk lines and one Teleblend (leftover from Sunrocket crash) line.
I really want to like Voipo. I really do. However, this last line has been such a hassle. I bought this one line with the idea to get it setup at a new property and then add 2 more lines to it.
I setup the system with all the appropriate equipment and configured firewalls with DMZ etc. However, it did not work. I then ripped out all the equipment and plugged the voipo box (rt31p2) directly into the cable modem. This time I got the lights and I thought I was good to go. Alas, I can make outgoing calls but incoming callers cannot hear me. That is odd, that is the problem we see when we have a firewall incorrectly configured - But I don't have a firewall.
Then, back and forth via a trouble ticket with Voipo for 8 DAYS. Finally thinking it is working (based on 2 test calls) and then the next day, it is down again.
I am finally on the telephone with the Voipo people to get this resolved while I wait. It is too bad we have to do this but maybe we can get it up and running. I will post when we get this resolved.
The wife is even now wanting me to put in AT&T. She is not as patient as I am.

AT&T CallVantage was shutting down and I saw how active Timothy is from VOIPo here on the forums and over on their own forums. I like to see that the president of the company is interested in hearing what the customers want and is there to address any issues that may come up.
The order process was painless, however, AT&T did not seem eager to release my number for the port to VOIPo. I blame that on AT&T though.
I was originally supplied with a Grandstream TA, however, they recalled those and shipped Linksys PAP2T's which seem to work well.
I am very satisfied, but I just hope they keep their promotional pricing of $135/year when renewal time comes. They also offer a month to month option.

Update: 9/24/09 - No problems at all for the last few months. Keep up the good work guys/gals!
----------------------------------------------------------
Update: 5/16/09 - Phones have been a little unreliable as of late. I'll sometimes pick up my phone and get no dialtone. I've also sporadically had calls directed to my failover number. The problem usually fixes itself, but nonetheless, still having problems.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Update: 4/15/09 - Haven't had a single problem since my ATA replacement. I have upgraded my scorecard of VOIPo accordingly. Keep up the good work Tim and team!
------------------------------------------------------------
Update: 4/9/09 - VOIPo has been great lately - the only complaint I have is that I'm getting an echo during phone conversations every once in awhile (it'll last about 45 seconds then go away). Outside of the echo, I haven't had any problems. Good job VOIPo.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Update: 3/27/09 - I haven't had my phone go down once (other than when my DSL went down for a little bit // not due to VOIPo) since the PAP2T replacement. I'm upgrading VOIPo's rating in this review to reflect the better service - will do so again in the future if it is warranted.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Update: 2/28/09 - All has been working well as of late. Hopefully the kinks have been cleared up.

I've had many problems with VOIPo's reliability. Due to issues outside of my control, my ATA loses registration, and it won't automatically re-register itself **as it's supposed to** until I physically reboot the device forcing it to re-register. It's to a point where I randomly use my phone to call my cell just to see if it's working (not good at all). As of now, I would not recommend anyone switching to VOIPo until they get a lot of kinks worked out.
I'll add more updates down the line.
