By any number of measurements, we are the highest quality answering service in the United States. Why? Part of the reason is because we don't take all-comers, focusing on just ten separate vertical markets.
Is your profession/business one of our specialties?
The Highest Quality Telephone Answering Service in the United States
Our most recent Customer Reported Error Rate (July through October, 2019) was 1 customer-reported error for every 7,093 message transactions processed. That’s a statistic far superior to any other answering service in the United States.
No Long-term Contract
We don’t ask for long-term contracts. This is a philosophical issue. If your telephone answering service is a good value, you will choose to continue each month.
Monthly Billing Cycle
At Centratel we use a monthly billing cycle. Be careful of services offering 28-day billing.
100% U.S. Based Operations
All of Centratel’s Telephone Service Representatives (TSRs) are located right here in the U.S.

Testimonials
Dr. R.C., pathologist, Portland, Or.
"Terrific. Every contact I have had with (Centratel) staff has been absolutely professional – a ‘ten’ in my book. I have used medical answering services for 15 years and this is the best experience I have ever had."
Veterinarian, Manistee, Mi.
"I’m very impressed with your operation. Our last answering service (which was our second bad service) was such a disaster I thought I’d never again feel comfortable with an answering service. But with Centratel we feel very confident our rotation will be handled properly. Thanks so much."
S.H., owner, HVAC company, Gurnee, Il.
