Likelihood to Recommend Call centers where lots of calls come in per day are better suited for Cloud office. Small businesses or companies that don’t really make outgoing calls or receive a lot of incoming calls other than within the company would not really be suited for Avaya Cloud Office.
Read full review We have had great service with Nextiva Business Phone Service and it is reliable and reasonably priced for the offered features. User Friendly and minimal issues. We are able to control most of the set up for new users and or new phones when needed. Only would like to see the app - Nextiva One be enhanced with more features than it currently has.
Read full review Pros User-friendly GUI management interface with the possibility to create different rooms, notebooks, calendars, and chats. The management interface for recordings is made in the rooms with the possibility of downloading them to the location. Link and file sharing with other participants. Chat with all participants and individual. Read full review Up-time, We've never had any sort of extended downtime because of Nextiva Business Phone Service, there services just work Provisioning of supported devices is very easy to do and is almost automatic, this makes new device roll out especially smooth The call flow functionality is especially smooth and intuitive to setup. Their customer service is very effective and I've never waited more than 2 days for a solution, that's for more complicated issues too. Read full review Cons Avaya has very strong contact center offerings and more contact with our salesperson would be helpful, so we can explore the latest offerings Although it's adequate a slightly more intuitive UI would be helpful More integrated reporting at the end-user level. Read full review The use of two apps when you're a supervisor. We have to use Unity and the Nextiva app instead of one app. It can be cumbersome. Better integration with CRM's. We use Zendesk and it works ok as it does pull up customer records if we have their phone number on file. But it would be better if we could have more functionality from one place and have it write to the CRM directly. Accept higher quality audio for greeting recordings. We had to trim the file size down several times losing a lot of audio quality in the process. Mono is fine since callers will only need to hear the one channel. But the Hz limit and file size limit were rough. Read full review Likelihood to Renew I would like to have better communication with the support teams and do not want to have to port to a new system.
Read full review Its user friendly, easy to use and has been very reliable. We have nothing but good things to say about our service with Nextiva Business Phone Service. When needed their support team has always resolved any and all issues one way or another. They have been helpful, knowledgeable and very friendly. The features vs the cost is wonderful compared to other service providers.
Read full review Usability There are few times that we have not been able to take advantage of the tool, but those moments are related to the bandwidth of each person in [their] home. Those who have low signal cannot access meetings on the platform smoothly.
Read full review Nextiva Business Phone Service system is very usable. We have desk phones, that were included at no cost. The function just as one would expect from an office phone system. I can also answer my calls from my PC and even on my cell phone if I have to leave the office.

Read full review Support Rating The Customer Service and Representatives are always kind and willing to go the extra mile to get anything resolved. Yet, we have not really needed them after the initial set up since the product actually works and we have not really experienced any major issues.
Read full review Support is great. We usually get someone on the phone; they answer our questions and help us with our issues. They are responsive when we call, and there is also a wealth of information on their online help center, which will typically answer our question or send us in the right direction.

Read full review Implementation Rating Thank to the help of Avaya implementation team, the migration was done with minimal impact. All activities were well defined and done in time.
Read full review No was done by Agency Owner and was done with the help of Nextiva Support and Sales team. Went very well and has been working great since then. Was originally only two phones and then we continue to add to that. We did not have any reported issues and was a great experience for our Agency and Small Business.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Apart from Cisco Webex Calling/app no other vendor offers their own phones hardware, gateways. We need to add other vendors like yealink, Poly, Audiocodes to complete the solution. This makes things very difficult from management perspective. As you have to hire a person who can manage a multivendor environment. Also, in case of outage, multiple bridge open and every vendor blame others. Cisco is costly so we gave a chance to Avaya UCaaS based on its history and reputation in Calling market.
Read full review We switched for better uptime, ease of use, and better tech support and got all that from Nextiva. We were constantly losing connection with our previous provider, a package service for internet and phone. The web portal is much easier to use, and the call center offers many more features.
Read full review Scalability Scalability was less important for our organization as our needs are quite stable.
Read full review We have not yet needed top scale up our phone system yet, but I can tell that it will be very quick and effortless to do so when the need arises.
Read full review Return on Investment This made working from home possible, allowing me to take calls that I wouldn't be able to without having them forwarded by our communications department It works with Teams, realizing when I'm on a conf call and automatically sets a status of away, preventing my phone from ringing, but allowing me to see the voicemail via text so that I can respond If I step out of the office for a little bit, I can have my calls go directly to my cellphone to make sure I'm still available if needed Read full review ROI - we are saving money, a lot of money, and we have a MUCH better phone system Consolidation - we migrated 6 different phone systems in 6 different counties into one, and it's been wonderful! Management - managing this system is so much better than Mitel, Panasonic, and any other system I have used. We are able to assign rights to certain staff to also make changes, and it's user friendly and almost fool proof. Read full review ScreenShots
