User Reviews

Sideline provides a helpful second-line solution with a unified inbox and business-focused features, appealing for separating work and personal calls. Reviewers praise its simplicity and continuity of use. However, recurring issues include pricing increases, spam call nuisance, unreliable text/notification delivery, inconsistent call reliability, and customer support frustration. Overall it delivers core value for a second line, but cost and reliability problems appear across multiple reports.

Pros

Provides a true second phone line that keeps work and personal calls separated, with all calls and texts accessible in one app.
Intuitive, easy-to-use interface that’s straightforward to set up and use.
Unified inbox and cross-functionality (calls and texts in one place) that helps you manage communications efficiently.
Feature-rich for business use, including auto-texts to missed calls, out-of-office messages, and customizable ringers.

Cons

Pricing is repeatedly criticized as high and has recently increased (examples include monthly/yearly rates and notable price hikes).
Spam calls remain a major annoyance; spam protection is not consistently effective.
Notifications and text delivery are unreliable, with missed texts, missing sounds, and messages sometimes disappearing.
Call reliability can be inconsistent, with calls sometimes failing, not ringing, or having poor clarity.
Customer support is frequently described as slow or unhelpful, with AI-style responses and limited direct contact.

Got blocked my a staff member for simply using the app, wouldn’t recommend this app to anyone.

by Je*****, 2026-07-28

I was using the app as well as several of my team members, yes we use it to call people, and I then was blocked with no warning, I woke up this morning with my account blocked which my payment was charged 3 days ago funny enough… you’re not allowed to be unblocked from the app, the support people say “sorry, that’s all I can do” that’s the most robotic answer they could’ve given me.
