8x8 X Series (Formerly Virtual Office) vs BroadSoft UC-One

• Conference call feature is great. We have created multiple conference bridges, we even have one tied to our virtual attendant.
• We like the flexibility of the auto attendant and being able to have more than one profile saved that we can change as needed
• Having Virtual office was especially great when hurricane Irma came through last year and our office had no power, it allowed us to continue to operate from our cell phones without the customer realizing there was anything different.

• The iPhone app is powerful, but clunky.
• The technical support (which was absolutely amazing when we first signed up with 8x8) is terrible now. The same goes for their customer service (that is, if there is a problem that tech support can't fix or doesn't handle well, and then you call customer service to complain, they'll just pat you on the head and tell you to go on your way).
• The web interface is difficult to use, both from a user standpoint and an administrator standpoint.

• Mobile App Chats do not always sync to the PC application.
• Switching from WiFi to Cellular on mobile applications typically drops the call.
• Caller ID on the iPhone/iPad app only shows the phone number and not the Caller ID information.

• When I am the only person covering the phone, I can get messages or calls anywhere and anytime and make sure that they are forwarded to the right person. This ensures that appointments are kept and employees don't waste time on appointments that get canceled.
• When someone is out on leave, it is convenient to forward their calls to someone else to make sure customers get attention when needed.
• Text capabilities allow our patients to contact us promptly for appointment cancellations. We are then able to fill those times with other patients who need to get in.

• The services as a whole are a better feature set for a better price.
• The software is much easier to use and administrate than previous offerings on the same platform offering a better customer experience.
• Updates made to the back end are not well communicated and sometimes cause unexpected behavior as a result.
