8x8 making it easy to use

8x8 Contact Center

I use the 8x8 Contact Center system to handle incoming calls and outgoing calls from various types of callers ranging from regular customers to attorney's, other insurance providers, and medical professionals. Sometimes I use the system to connect callers to specific individuals as needed. The chat function is also used daily to seek and provide information regarding various claim details. In general I have not encountered many problems with the system the only issue that comes to mind is when a caller disconnects a call before I can answer it counts as a missed call in the log records which gives the impression that a choice was not made to simply not answer the call. Perhaps an update of some sort could be made to differentiate between a caller disconnecting the call before it is answered and a unanswered call all together. Other than that I have no issues with the 8x8 system.
  • Good connection quality
  • Easy to use chat system
  • Simple to use
Cons
  • Not counting disconnected calls as missed calls
  • Better caller ID
Overall I believe the system is well suited for all situations and to be fair I cannot imagine a scenario where it would not be appropriate to use.

It is used for a sales call center. <br>Visibilty of the daily call interactions.<br>Agents answer incoming calls &amp; make outbound calls to customers.<br>
  • Provides multiple skill levels for queues.
  • Customizable dashboards.
  • User friendly soft phone.
Cons
  • Need to be able to create reports for day-of-week stats.
  • Would like to hide or remove the features our business does not use.
  • Reporting is not user-friendly.
  • Ability to copy agent settings when setting up wigets & reports.
Works for call center monitoring & call handling.

Reporting is not user-friendly. It is cumbersome. It would help to have a repository of customer used reports to copy.

We use 8x8 every day, without a hitch!

I have been in charge of our 8x8 account here at Wearparts since I started working here 4 years ago. We have two offices and many of our salesmen are offsite. We all use the 8x8 app and have Polycom phones at each of our desks. 8x8 is used across the whole organization. We have never had an issue with 8x8. In fact, the Virtual Office Account Manger area on the 8x8 site is very easy to navigate and if we do have any issues, we can usually figure them out on there.
  • The contact center is very easy to navigate. If I have any issues, I can usually sort them out there.
  • If we are unable to figure out an issue, we can call the Contact Center and they can help us fast and efficiently.
Cons
  • We have yet to come across any areas where 8x8 Contact Center has room to improve. The very few issues we have ever come across have been handled.
We rely heavily on 8x8 and would recommend it to other businesses. During the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, many of our staff worked from home. Plus, we already have quite a few employees that work offsite. 8x8 allowed us to continue our normal work schedule rather seamlessly through using the app and contacting each other through this.

Efficient most of the time.

I do quality control. I listen to calls, both recorded and lived, and grade them to ensure they meet the metrics we have set.
  • Shows the queue.
  • Makes it easy to pull and download calls.
  • Shows statuses visibly.
Cons
  • Technical support staff knowledge.
  • Technical issues.
  • Faster turn around time for tickets submitted.
Employees will randomly not be able to receive calls or the caller cannot hear them with or without headphones. 8x8 is easy to navigate.

I work in the billing department for a medical practice, and received communication daily from 8x8 as a tool of payment communication from our vendors. I believe this is an effective and easy way to keep track of my documents. I have in the past experience a lack of documents and had to reach out to the it depatment, however it was a smooth process and the techs were efficent and polite. I enjoy using this tool and would recommend to other people

Cons
  • JAMS
  • READABLE DOCUMENT
The only issue I've ever experience was a lack of communication due to 8x8 not sending fax documents for a lengthy period. However, once I've reached out to support, they are very helpful in ensuring the matter is fixed.
