VoxOx for Mac

I reviewed VoxOx about 5 years ago. It was awful. It is still awful. The latest Mac version will actually make and receive calls on OS 10.10.3, but not without problems. It is not possible to access voicemail -- the vm window is blank. It is not possible to set some of the important preferences as that window is also blank in places.

As for the quality of support, there is none. I recently posted a question to the VoxOx online support forum about the vm problem, and it was deleted. (I didn't include any editorial comment, just a question.)

Astonishingly, the VoxOx CEO was a finalist for the San Diego Business Journal's Most Admired CEO award, handed out in 2015. That tells you all you need to know about that Journal's credibility. The CEO is apparently even invited to gives speeches at tech conferences. I bet those speeches are not about how great VoxOx is on a Mac, or the company's excellent support.

On the plus side, it seems very unlikely that more than a few masochists actually have VoxOx on their Macs.

Simply does not work. I registered an account with Voxox, chose a phone number, got emails about it, and downloaded the application. However, nothing works. It is not possible to make calls or to receive calls. Forget about it ...

Serious support and store problems - - sent 3 emails to support in past 4 days, all received auto reply within seconds, but no real reply so far to any - store offers only credits, calling plan and text plan - no virtual number offer - when trying to make a purchase with my Seattle address and all American credit card I'm getting a message - "purchases are not supported for your region" - tried to purchase calling plan through different mac from different location - this time got "your order was put on hold pending security review, please contact support for manual processing" - fine, but there is no phone number available for support, so how they want to process anything manually. And of course no replies to emails sent to support. Conclusion - great concept, beyond disastrous implementation. Support ignores my emails

What is their privacy policy ? Do they harvest data ? Any third-parties involved ?

Damn capture on their website. After a dozen unsuccessful attempts, I gave it up.
