Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review I still have some issues, especially with color integration between the style guide and also project. When we update the colors, it's not automatically sync to every project. Aside from that, zeplin solves my problem for hand-off design from design to developer. I set zeplin is source of truth design file
Read full review Pros The platform supports up to 5,000 users connected at the same time in voice and video calls. Everything is virtually deployed on Cisco servers with reliability. Intuitive configuration and user-friendly web interface. It has several types of IP phones and is compatible with legacy and multi-brand hardware with SIP protocol. Read full review Ease in automatically building design style guides, saving time that might be spent on building style guides in another tool (such as InDesign). Users can use Mac, PC, or web versions of this app to collaborate on a single project, enabling us to work with a wider pool of contractors. Accelerates the design-to-development workflow, as it’s very easy to import Sketch or Photoshop files through plug-ins, and HTML/CSS codes are automatically created based on designs. Provides cross-platform specifications for web, iOS, and Android, which can save developers time in figuring out specifications beyond the “main platform" on their own. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review The uploading and syncing of assets is great for sketch and photoshop but we use illustrator and that can be cumbersome/tedious at times. There are certain elements that have been a bit confusing to navigate at times, but for the most part, it's pretty user-friendly More integrations Read full review Likelihood to Renew Great tool
Read full review Usability Zeplin is not a fully functional prototyping software system, but having the ability to add notes to help explain what actions are expected allows me to rate it high.
Read full review Support Rating Zeplin has classic support with a chat from the website. It's working fine, and we're also getting the support needed when needed. However, Zeplin is very good at closing the incidents and moving on. It was a while ago we had a case with their support so that it might have improved since then.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review Zeplin is great to inspect and share user interfaces, specifications and assets, perfect for developers. Tools like
InVision and Marvel are much better to create prototypes for both developers, coworkers and even stakeholders, but they don't have this kind of feature (inspection) as Zeplin does. So each of them can be used for different purposes, offering different approaches to share and interact with layouts for apps and websites.
Read full review Return on Investment It has allowed for mostly smooth communication from department to department/office to office. It allows for saved phone # / last contact to appear quickly. It has allowed for safety warnings/announcements to emerge all across every office so that everyone within the organization is on the same page about events when they occur. Read full review Development time has reduced as the design updates are communicated in real time to developers and they don't have to write the boilerplate code as it's already generated. Employee engagement has improved as every stakeholder is aware about the design changes from the beginning and can give their inputs. Designers save a lot of time as they don't to explicitly communicate when the update or publish their designs and also it just takes a couple of clicks to publish their designs. Also, lot of rework is saved as every stakeholder is involved right from the beginning. Read full review ScreenShots
