> **Sara** | *26 January 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: User-friendly; options to contact the provider by phone and email are nice. It's been consistent with no glitches.
> 
> **Cons**: A bit pricey. It would be nice if it was more affordable but it is still worth keeping for the moment.

### "Reliable & Affordable" — 5.0/5

> **Nicole** | *29 April 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The functionality and cost. Being a small to mid-sized nonprofit, The Receptionist for iPad was within our budget and meets our needs.
> 
> **Cons**: The Receptionist has met our needs. We have no complaints about the product or customer service.
> 
> It has been a positive experience. From demo to use, we have had nothing but good experiences.

### "It's An Ok Product" — 3.0/5

> **Unikka** | *24 March 2025* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Capture the customers name, email, phn\# and the voice prompts.
> 
> **Cons**: Dont have the availability to cature phone numbers correctly, dont have the availability to send sms to only certain customers, dont have availability to log customers out without stating they had an appointment, and limit analytics.

### "Great "virtual receptionist" when a live receptionist is not monetarily feasible." — 5.0/5

> **Susy** | *9 June 2025* | Commercial Real Estate Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This product really filled a need for us at a building that doesn't have a live receptionist. We still wanted our tenants to be able to be notified when they had a client/customer, and this works perfectly for that need. We also wanted our tenants to be notified immediately when they received packages. With the Receptionist for iPad, they are notified by either an email or as a text message (whichever they prefer) right away so they can retrieve their packages without delay.  We love having the knowledge that our tenants are still being taken care of when we are not able to be at the desk. It is cost effective, and very easy to program/edit. Great customer service as well\!
> 
> **Cons**: So far, there are no cons for us. An update caused it to go down for a brief while, but they worked quickly to fix the issue, and also communicated with us throughout the process with updates\!
> 
> Our experience has been excellent - this provides what we need, for a reasonable price, and is very easy to set up and use\!

### "User Friendly and Versatile App" — 5.0/5

> **Sany** | *6 May 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: user friendly and intuitive surface, reasonable price and good customer support. Sales team are pretty helpful as well.
> 
> **Cons**: only supports Apple devices for now. Hopefully it can support other OS so the hardware costs could be lower
> 
> very positive experience since the beginning. Sales director is very knowledgeable and the onboarding team is also helpful. Not many visitor management software supports IPA as this is the critical function we need for our company, and The Receptionist was happy to help working with our other vendor.
