Bicom Systems vs. Kixie

Small to medium-sized businesses looking for a reliable and flexible communication solution would definitely see their IP telephony taken to the next step with PBXware and its ability to configure lots of different call scenarios, have an ability to manage their working hours very precisely but also businesses with multiple locations that require centralized communication and management or even service providers looking to offer their own hosted PBX services to their clients. I would end by saying that call centers or customer service departments that require advanced call routing and management features would definitely be satisfied using PBXware Call Center edition and gloCOM Agent & Supervisor edition that contains advanced queue features and real time monitoring.

Suited if you want to hear old calls. Not suited for teaching new SDR's how to talk or what a good call is and why. Kixie doesn't transcribe either.

• Emergency Support - 24/7
• Explain the solution so that you are aware and understand
• Remote into servers for hands on troubleshooting

• Kixie integrates seamlessly with our CRM (Zoho), meaning it updates call notes directly on the customer's CRM profile.
• The one-click dialing feature directly through our CRM is a great feature. It's so simple; just search for a name, one-click, and you are on the phone.
• The local presence feature is a nice touch for cold calls. It provides a local area code when cold calling to increase the likelihood of an answer to the call.

Incentivized

• Bulk changes for extensions, ability to make a change for every extension of the system

• "Power Dialer" doesn't work all the time.
• Only records; doesn't give any type of analysis.
• Getting your account set up correctly can be confusing.

Having the ability to use Muli-Tenant and one single instance definitely made us stand out whenever prospects were seeking for a new UcaaS solution for their company. The fact that we can make extremely detailed scenarios easily within PBXware also makes Bicom Systems a solution of choice. Also the ability to fully brand every single product is something that prospects were seeking for and are satisfied today using Bicom Systems products. PBXware offers a range of flexible licensing options, including both perpetual and subscription licenses, which makes it easier for businesses to scale up or down as needed. 3CX only offers subscription-based licenses.

Kixie integrated much better with our CRM (Zoho) than CrazyCall. In addition, Kixie had increased reporting features that CrazyCall did not offer--CrazyCall's reporting was limited and not detailed enough for our purposes. Lastly, at the time, CrazyCall did not have the inbound call services that Kixie offered. In fact, CrazyCall did not have any inbound services when we were using the software.

Incentivized

• We have many clients on it that are happy with it

• Negative- the "Power Dialer" doesn't load
• Negative- missed calls because not loading correctly
• Positive- can call anyone with a click of a button
