3CX Phone System vs Presence Inbound

Likelihood to Recommend

The 3CX system is a well-thought out phone system with many features and options. The plan pricing is very affordable and flexible depending on your business needs. However, the key to having a solid, well-performing system with 3CX is the quality of your Internet connection. You may want to discuss your Internet connection type and speeds with a 3CX reseller before deciding on a 3CX system.

Screen recording and call monitoring are great features and on the other hand, workforce management solutions would be avery nice to have. Also scripting is very easy to use and configuring a campaign script takes only [a few] minutes depending on how complex the script is of course.

Pros

Simplicity: Using a single 3CX interface we can manage every phone and extension used throughout our company.
Flexibility: There are a wide variety of options to configure each extension and phone. Changing anything after the hardware is deployed is very easy.
Portability: Phones with 3CX can be easily moved or repurposed within an office or at remote locations, including users' homes. The mobile app allows users to use their office extension anywhere without exposing their cell number.

Cons

The webmeeting function is clumsy compared to Zoom or Google Meets (Hangouts).
There is no support offered without paying for it, but the web forum that is offered for free does allow you to throw out questions and have them answered by someone in the community of 3CX user administrators.

Support Rating

3CX Phone System 6.5

Based on 2 answers

I didn't have to use support personally but I have talked to the administrators of the system and they confirm that any issue is dealt with quickly. As we haven't had big issues I can't talk about priority 1 incidents which require immediate attention, but normal issues are answered fairly quickly and accurately.

Both are great - 3CX was chosen for its Windows compatibility, The operation has been very straightforward and was easily integrated and maintained. The ability to migrate later to a stable Unix platform is considered a real plus. We have been very pleased with the ease of use and the stability that the 3CX system provides, even on a Windows platform.

I didn't participate in the acquisition at the beginning but I know some other platforms and after using presence what I like better is the real time reporting, the agent's easy to use interface, the option of sending communications to all of users in a very easy way, the options that supervisors get from their interface and the easy to configure scripting where you can have a campaign configure in minutes.

Return on Investment

3CX has a lot to offer for a very low cost as its business model is based on simultaneous calls and not per device. It's very cost effective and very affordable.
As the 3CX server does not require a high-performance server to run, with the Public Cloud option, it might allow even further savings.

Very well, we have gone from having 15 workstations to having 350 in 1 year so far.
In our sales presentations, Presence is one of our major strengths.
