Cisco Business Edition 7000 vs CrazyCall

Likelihood to Recommend

Its well suited for small to medium scale deployments if the infra is in-house. Webex and other SaaS solutions are in demand these days and are cost-effective too, but if for some reason your deployments need a locally-managed data center, then go for the BE7K or the BE6K depending upon your requirement.

One-click dialing directly from the computer is definitely a strength.
Local numbers used in dialing to increase the number of connections is an asset.
The pricing is a plus. It is one of the most affordable calling tools on the market.

Cons

Licensing should be easy and collaborative.
Management interface should be provided with redundancy.
I've came across difficulties while I installed Windows server on BE6K. It's hard to gather Windows server keys.

Inbound call functionally is still limited and not something that my team utilizes.
The reporting features for the some of the lower pricing tiers are very limited.
Downloading reports from the cloud can be quite slow at times.

Alternatives Considered

I’m a user of both systems and it’s difficult to say whether one is better than the other for features. Cisco is much more user friendly and has a better interface. I think both are suitable for large businesses, but it’s more about preference of the front end. Security features may be lagging with Skype.

CrazyCall integrated with our CRM better than the other competitors. The integration was seamless and offered exactly what we were looking for. Some of the other competitors that we were evaluating were not able to integrate with our CRM in the same manner. That is why we ended up going with CrazyCall
