8x8 Contact Center vs. CallTrackingMetrics

The functionality of 8x8 is great. The only challenges we have faced are tied to outages of the platform and preventing callers from reaching the business. As 8x8 has worked with us, they have responded extremely well to patterns we were experiencing and made the necessary adjustments to stabilize the platform, which has been fantastic—our Account Reps. We were key to this effort, and it will be in 8x8's best interest to continue hiring, training, and providing Account Reps. Who cares about the partnership as much as the client does?

[CallTrackingMetrics] is well suited for HIPAA Compliant Call Tracking when working with medical clients and is great for all clients who do online sales or patient intake. Clients with low volume of calls may not get enough value for the cost of this platform.

• The out of the box chat feature is outstanding for your website. My team was able to adopt chat easily.
• Setting up the system with the help of an integrator was especially easy and did not require any IT training on my part.
• The visibility of being able to manage my team and all media channels in one panel is awesome.

• Very easy to set up and use. You can create as many tracking numbers and sources as you need. Easily organize and filter them for results and placing the code is so simple. Anyone can use this software.
• Listening to the calls makes life simple. We can hear what the potential lead said and record feedback to better our marketing efforts. You can even flag or email the call recordings if you need to share inside or outside your organization.
• Call reporting is a breeze! You can easily filter your sources, call duration, time and more and reports are extremely accurate.
• Cost is well worth what you get from the software.

• Overall support, being able to get ahold of someone faster/someone that is able to communicate with us easier in terms of language barriers. As well as following what is requested in the support ticket, for example, I submit tickets asking to communicate via email yet 9/10 times I get called to discuss my ticket or to get told to submit information that is already in the ticket... this has improved recently but still plenty of room for improvement.
• Callback queues. Being able to view the overall queue & not allow duplicates of a callback. For example, someone calls in, requests a callback, then calls back in again & requests for another one or two or three, limiting them to just one callback in that queue.
• Being able to see overall queues & the numbers in both the regular queues & callback queues would be helpful as well.
• Being able to do away with 8x8 Contact Center work entirely. Integrating it into Teams is a good thing I saw 8x8 do fairly recently, but being able to use 8x8 Contact Center as the just web version would be a huge plus.

• Can get pricy.
• More complex integrations may need professional services.
• No push notifications for incoming SMS on mobile app (non agent).

8 x 8 is not an ordinary system, it works well for everyday business and assists in working efficiencies. So much is required for credentialing and re-credentialing. 8 x 8 takes out a lot of the extra steps by providing smarter working features that saves time and money. Also, when faxing, once the fax is complete, you receive an actual confirmation! Absolutely love this feature.

The system is flexible, adaptable and easy to use and research. Once again the reporting is fantastic and gives up the information we need to be successful and even make changes or tweaks. The 8x8 Contact Center team is there to assist with questions when needed or to help get through an issue. Charlie Knutson is the best!!

The only issue I have ran across was on getting the updated new version

Yes everything loads quickly and its ready for use

The initial live support person seems to be just collecting information and is outsourced. Sometimes it is difficult to communicate with them, but going through this process gets me to the right person and having my support ticket opened in order. It's usually very smooth thereafter.

The transition from Mitel to 8 x 8 was smooth and no "hiccups". The support was one of the best that we had received. No surprises except what 8 x 8 is actually capable of doing! Support remained available throughout the transition! Co-workers were amazed at what they were able to do with having 8 x 8,

I would say they are all very comparable. The one advantage to the Spectrum Enterprise OnDemand would be that it has it own internet bandwidth, so it doesn't eat into our overall internet usage bandwidth. It is however more expensive than 8x8. Poly Series just didn't have the flexibility and extensive features offered by 8x8, and therefore was not an acceptable replacement.

CallTrackingMetrics has stood up well compared to Salesforce. Being that we are a high volume call center for schools, it has been very good for the company. I feel that CallTrackingMetrics is really good for our company compared to Salesforece CMS.
