Cisco business edition are well suited for the environment where we need regular communication as they are easy to dial and has got great features. The product is well suited for both small business and large enterprises. Speed dial, good voice quality are key features of Cisco phones. They are not well suited in scenarios where we do not have LAN connectivity or internet. Sometimes we may face latency and jitteriness which is not good.

Telonium enables us to keep your voice systems automated, allowing us to receive all incoming calls and route them to the appropriate person in your office. We are notified whenever a voicemail message is left on your desk. You can play the voicemail without dialing if you receive an e-mail notification.We can customize our phone system from anywhere. There is no need to schedule a technician to visit your site and make adjustments because all phones are delivered ready to connect. We can use this program to prevent unsolicited telemarketers and phone calls from reaching our phones. It is the ideal solution for a better and safer phone service, with a high percentage of filtered calls in our favor. Telonium makes it as simple as possible for us to launch or relocate your service. When our customers and prospects call you, we only need to provide a few pieces of information, and Telonium will handle the rest. When you need to make changes to your system, all it takes is a phone call or a visit to a customer web portal to make immediate changes.However a high-speed Internet connection is required at the location where the phone will be used.

  • The control panel function is very good because we can see the progress and work of the agents, individually and also as a group with the different work teams.
  • We have found the call scripts very useful, especially with new agents who still don't know very well how to conduct the conversation with customers.
  • I think the omnichannel support is great because all the communication channels are in the same program, which makes our work easier.

Cons
Discontinued Products
  • More cloud based services need to be added to the default service package.
  • Companies frequently require a small contact center within the UC environment. It would be nice to see a build it contact center in the box.
  • It would be nice to see some advanced AI based services (IVR voice recognition service) in the BE7K application list.
  • Call recording should be also built in.

I've used 220s and 240s too, but it takes a lot of time to set them up, a lot of time to download the iso files, and set up of datastores. 7k saves the engineer a lot of pre-build assessment and evaluation time. Gets a lot done in a lot less time, returns are a happy engineer and a happier customer.

  • We can see how our agents and customer service staff have become more focused on their tasks and have been more effective and successful in resolving customer requests. The system is quite easy to install and use, so we didn't have any inconvenience, so without a doubt, our profit margin increased.
