IMO, 8x8 is great in the mid-market space. Contact Centers with 25-1000 seats. Is it perfect? No, but none of them are (Ring, Nice, Five9, Talk) they're all going to have their defects. If you're a small or micro business, I don't know if If 8x8 is the place to be. Functionally, it will work fine, but the ROI isn't good for that sized org. And, you want get the support the same way the Mid and Enterprise customers will. Another things to consider is integrations - of which, 8x8 has many. Integrations and APIs is an areas where I have really seen 8x8 making a big push in the last few years. They have a powerful CPaaS product too, but I've not used it enough to be qualified to comment on it (yet).
When you have a small team, this works best. because you can't pay like a big organisation but still need the same features. OpenTeam brings us the best features of call-centre software, but at a cut price that we can afford and create revenue upon. This is an essential software, if anything.
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.
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.
8x8's contact center provides us with the functionality and capabilities we desire. Leaders have the ability to measure, guide, and improve the performance of our service representatives. They also have the ability to make necessary changes based on call volumes and workloads. Our service representatives have the tools required to resolve callers' needs more effectively. The administration tools available help us self-service our needs and resolve issues.
Charlie Knutson is fantastic, however when you call the support number it is almost impossible to get through and when you do they cannot fix your issue. That is the biggest challenge. It is a difference between that and reaching our contact directly. The email support number that our company was given is very responsive and good.
Detailed training and good quality to provide our customers to achieve their needs and to give the best we can as far as information and technology and the best service we can to have the customers be satisfied with the technology and the best quality to get the best answers to their doubts.
its was with the best quality and the best performance we could have as far as detailed information for us to get the best training on how to get used of 8*8 and provide the best quality and technology to provide to our customers when they need and made us fell comforatble in how to use it
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.
We choosed OpenText TeamQ instead of acmatel CCS because of its simple nature. Acmatel CCS was having limited feature with call tracking support. Also, OpenText TeamQ is one of the better tool when you consider the fact of consistency in calling support. I am totally grateful that I had choosen this tool for our business demand.
