24/7 answering services for IT companies of all kinds.

Prevent missed calls around the clock, capture more new business leads, improve response times and reduce reliance on key technical staff by having helpdesk support handled for you.

Have virtual receptionists triage calls so your team can maintain focus on urgent or complex issues.

24-hour availability

Our team is available to pick up your calls at any hour of the day, helping you meet contractual requirements.

US receptionists

Live answering by professionals in the US, with bilingual services and overflow support available.

Basic troubleshooting

Use scripting with conditional logic to guide call flows, including having us provide Level 1 helpdesk support.

Raising of tickets

Have Level 2 or 3 support tickets raised directly in your own CRM, or calls routed to technicians, as necessary.

Instant notifications

Have the caller’s name, number and all relevant details sent by email and/or SMS immediately after each call.

No lock-in contract

Month-to-month subscriptions and no cancellation fees mean flexibility to scale up (or down) as needs change.

How it works.

With instant activation of your service, we can start answering your calls within a few minutes.

1
A customer calls your number.

The call is diverted to us if you’ve chosen to send us all calls or you can’t answer it in-house.

2
We answer the call.

A friendly receptionist uses your preferred greeting and handles the call as required by you.

3
You receive a message.

You receive all the information you need via SMS and/or email immediately after the call.

The reliability and quick response your clients expect.

Within the IT sector, it’s vital for calls to be answered around the clock – and for technical support to be readily available to clients at any hour – regardless of whether you’re a managed service provider (MSP) or break-fix service provider.

Yet having senior technicians working graveyard shifts on a “just in case” basis is cost-prohibitive. And that’s where we come in.

Imagine having round-the-clock support from professional receptionists, answering your calls, determining the level of complexity, providing Level 1 troubleshooting where applicable and alerting you to urgent matters.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Sí!  We have bilingual receptionists who speak both English and Spanish, plus a team of Spanish-speaking receptionists who can handle calls to dedicated Spanish-speak phone lines, so we can absolutely answer inbound calls for your business if you have customers who are native Spanish speakers.  Our bilingual service is included with every account at no extra cost.

You betcha!  Whether you’re sending all calls to us or only the calls you can’t answer in-house, one of the huge benefits of using AnsweringService.com is that we have a whole team of virtual receptionists, so we can handle multiple calls to your business number at the same time.  That means calls you’d usually miss simply due to your line being tied up,  which you may not even realize has been occurring, will be answered.
