8x8 Meet (discontinued) vs. Cisco Desk Series

The only issue that I have faced so far is learning the program. Being a new admin with 8x8 X Series, you have a lot of questions and need help figuring stuff out. They have great customer service. Every page on the admin portal they have a chatbot. When you need help you can click on the chatbot and right away you are either directed to helpful documents or a customer service rep.

The tool is great for having a day in and day out video calls with the client in today's COVID world, where physical interaction is limited and the best suited is for having meetings with clients and showcasing them the product demonstration, at a large scale as this has smooth video interaction and makes any large scale webinar a piece of cake while using it.

• The system allows our employees to work from home and continue to be connected to the phone system.

• A very nice compact digital whiteboard.
• Hooks in with Webex meetings and Teams in such a seamless way.
• Handles calling like a desk phone and is natural to use.
• Looks so beautiful and is such a great addition to your desk.

• Less wait time on Service calls.
• Admin view is rather complex.

• The WebRTC function that's used for certain meeting types should include a progress bar. A lot of users think the device is frozen.
• At entry, the price was a bit high. I haven't bought one recently.
• More backgrounds would be nice.

I have not had to use support yet as our use of Webex Desk Pro is so new, but all the questions that I have had have been answered with such promptness and clarity that it is clear Cisco has a passion about this device and about providing high quality in all that they do. Their support is top notch and you will never need to fear when reaching out to them.

Organisation decided to went ahead with Cisco Webex Desk Pro becase of these following key differences: 1.- Microphone: Advanced noise-canceling microphone array vs Built-in microphone with Logitech MeetUp. 2.- Speakers: Superior Sound system vs Built-in speakerphone with Logitech MeetUp. 3.- Display: 27-inch 4K touchscreen vs. No touchscreen with Logitech MeetUp. Cisco TAC support is great.

• The cell phone app, 8x8 work, is great and allows users not to be tied to their desks
• Moves calls to other line if unanswered.

• For team work, projects are completed sooner and you can make a profit
• Saving time and this means the possibility of more profit
• If the number of projects is large, the investment will return quickly
• The software license fee is too high
