We used to be with Netsmart and they had an amazing customer support as well as quick techinical intervention when there was an issue.

Some IP addresses are blocked. Technical support is nearly impossible to get hold of and do not call back. When I cancelled my service and changed to another provider they charged me for an extra month despite not giving service

Pros

Cheap for 12 months

Cons

Poor reliability, poor service, poor technical support. Not worth the fuss.

We shifted to 2 degrees about a year ago. We have never had a problem with reliability or speed so tens there. We have not needed to call them for support so, rate that a 10 too. We are on their fattest plan so features and value are outstanding.

Pros

All the above

Cons

None that we're aware of yet.
