    Universal Connectivity didn't mind that we are a small company--they helped us get where we needed to be with our communication system, and I appreciate that.

    • System uptime is tremendous, I almost forget it exists on my server rack.
    • Desktop software is very easy to learn, I can train new receptionists within a few minutes and they don't have to memorize extensions or rely on a sheet of numbers
    • Call recording works well, I am able to find calls based on a number of criteria and it finds the calls fast and I can easily export them for use.

    • There are a few interfaces for working with the system and it can be daunting to learn
    • They charge quite a bit annually and if you miss an update they charge you additional fees to catch up.
