    Nextiva Business Phone Service

    It is well suited for anyone who wants an easy to use very reliable VOIP service. If you have call center agents, it works very well for that situation as well. If you have people in multiple offices or work from home/remote it is a great solution. If you want everyone to be able to receive and make business calls from business numbers anywhere, this is your solution.If you are looking for a service that will integrate with many other third-party products you may use already, you may want to look at another VOIP vendor that has deeper integrations with third-party applications. If you are looking for the lowest price VOIP system, although Nextiva is not the most expensive, it is still in the middle of the pack when it comes to pricing. If you are looking for just cheap simple VOIP you may be able to find some vendors that are a little bit more affordable.

    This product is great when the call centers are globally dispersed and yet still need to collaborate jointly to resolve cases. The technology offered allows any call center to run efficiently with all the needs covered. on the downside, Depending on the scale of the operation and business, it may be overkill for some smaller organizations as there may be other products that will do just fine with fewer features and cheaper.

    Pros

    Nextiva Business Phone Service

    • Our teams are located in three different countries. This includes Administration, Customers Support, Technical Support, and Sales. All of us have an internal number reachable from any mobile or laptop.
    • Looking for the internal directory and dialing a three digit number is very easy. We communicate with workers in different countries as we where in the same building
    • User-friendly application with availability indicator, call settings, and personal preferences.

    Zendesk Talk

    • Call recording is a nice feature! It is great for training purposes and for quality assurance.
    • The metrics you get from Explore are a great insight into how the team is handling the call volumes.
    • Zendesk Talk has met most of our needs. It can be a bit unreliable at times.

    Zendesk Talk

    • The lag on the phone is by far the most annoying thing with Zendesk talk due to the voice over IP.
    • Using the Reporting feature in Zendesk has never been a walk in the park. We have to customize a lot of fields and when something doesn't seem to add up, it at times feels like pulling teeth to get to the final answer of what went wrong.

    I think Nextiva is a great tool for what we use it for. It is used for tracking time and used also in our bonus structure to make sure we have the specified amount of talk time. I really enjoy this application and everything that it is used for within our company. There's not a whole lot I can say about it other than it is a really neat tool.

    In our experience, we have had to go through many support people then ultimately getting frustrated enough to go directly to our point of contact who then doesn't always seem to be able to assist. We tend to get the support we need when it is escalated up to me and I reach out to our point of a contact person to express our frustration.

    Alternatives Considered

    Nextiva Business Phone Service

    The features that Nextiva has managed to pack into their very competitive pricing is outstanding. The call flow visualization is spot on and very easy to use. The call recording is simple to set up and even easier to use. My only complaint is the Android app that seems to be hit or miss with certain users

    Zendesk Talk

    Slack and Zoom phones cannot compare because they have no ticketing systems. Zendesk Talk was the only option we considered because we were already using Zendesk for our email ticketing with customer concerns. We then expanded to using Zendesk's chatbot and then the Zendesk Talk system to keep it all integrated and streamlined.

    Return on Investment

    Nextiva Business Phone Service

    • We like that we have one general call-in number that we can post on the website and marketing material where you can reach anyone in the business.
    • We like that the fax number alerts us via email if we have a message.

    Zendesk Talk

    • Satisfaction evaluation requests are automatically sent after the ticket is resolved, helping to increase satisfaction.
    • The best thing about Zendesk Talk is that your inquiries no longer go unattended.
    • You can enter tickets on your behalf for both verbal and phone inquiries, so if you manage them all as tickets, there will be no omissions.
