How is Frontdesk different from Google Voice?

Google Voice is a low-cost number with voicemail and basic forwarding. Frontdesk is a full phone system. An AI receptionist answers missed calls, qualifies leads, books appointments, and writes everything back to your CRM on a flat plan.

Can I move my Google Voice number to Frontdesk?

Yes. You can export a Google Voice number and port it in. Free porting for any US number, usually 3 to 5 business days, and your Google Voice line stays active until it completes.

Why outgrow Google Voice?

Google Voice has no AI answering, thin call routing, and no CRM sync, so missed calls become lost leads. Once call volume picks up, most businesses need real coverage and logging, which is what Frontdesk provides.

How much does Frontdesk cost compared to Google Voice?

Google Voice for personal use is free and its business tiers are low cost but limited. Frontdesk starts free to start with unlimited seats and includes an AI receptionist and CRM sync that Google Voice does not offer.

How Frontdesk solves it

Google Voice Alternative tuned for Marketing Agencies.

AI receptionist answers every missed call

Google Voice gives marketing agencies a number and voicemail transcription. Frontdesk adds an AI receptionist that picks up the calls nobody catches, books appointments, and texts you a summary.

Real call routing and team coverage

Google Voice keeps routing and ring groups thin. Frontdesk routes by hours, department, and urgency so the right person, or the AI, always answers.

Calls, texts, and email in one inbox

Customers reach you on any channel and you see a single timeline per contact instead of a basic voicemail box.

Native CRM sync

Every call, text, and voicemail logs to the contact in HubSpot, Salesforce, or Pipedrive automatically. Google Voice does none of this.

Lead qualification on the call

The AI asks the questions your team would, scores the lead, and routes hot ones to a human while logging the rest.

Live the same day

Port your existing number or pick a new one, train Frontdesk on your business, and start answering calls in under 30 minutes.
