    The system does more than I've even had the pleasure to implement. I appreciate the staff and the system. It's stable and dynamic enough to meet any companies needs.

    We consider that it is a very complete internet call software that is worth having in all companies that want to increase their sales through customer service agents because, with all its tools, agents improve their workday by day.

    Pros
    Vertical Communications
    • 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.

    VirtualPBX
    • Easy to set up your menu and record greetings and Prompts
    • Forwards to our cell phones or landlines -- and voicemail to email
    • Allows outbound calls on the rare occasion we require hiding
    • Simple website for end users - but they almost never need to use it.

    Cons
    Vertical Communications
    • 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.

    So much easier than our old PBX or any on-prem PBX I have ever used. We were up and running in an hour. Tweaking the caller menus is so easy.

    • We have been able to improve greatly with this software, our communications and interactions with customers improved, and agent performance and productivity improved, which translates into higher profits for the company. It is easy to use this program, so it did not take us long to adapt to it and its functions.
