Any time I have an issue or just questions in general, I get quick response and assistance. It could on system issues or just stuff that I don't know how to do. An agent is always willing to spend the time showing me how to use the system. Sometimes even after hours which is above and beyond.

Charlie Knutson is fantastic, however when you call the support number it is almost impossible to get through and when you do they cannot fix your issue. That is the biggest challenge. It is a difference between that and reaching our contact directly. The email support number that our company was given is very responsive and good.

I have personally only dealt with an 8x8 technical support representative once, but my experience was relatively quick and painless. I'm not sure I like the online chat customer support since it is more of a robotic responsive type. I'd rather chat with an actual person right off the bat.

The initial live support person seems to be just collecting information and is outsourced. Sometimes it is difficult to communicate with them, but going through this process gets me to the right person and having my support ticket opened in order. It's usually very smooth thereafter.

I think it is easy to use from an administrative perspective. What prevents me from giving it a rating of 10 is the lack of direct integration with the main 8x8 Work application and the fact that the Contact Center is all web-based with no local application installer. If there was simply a Contact Center plug-in for the 8x8 Work app or even a standalone application I think this solution would be a 10 out of 10.

The agents took ownership and solved the problem. Restating and clarifying everything I said kept 8x8 from getting a "10" here. Despite the agents restating and clarifying too much, the senior technicians know what they are doing! They kept digging and digging until they found the problem, fixed it, and (most importantly) tested it before ending the call. This is not consistent with call center industry standards as most agents with other firms "fix" a problem and hang up. We don't learn how bad the "fix" was until later.

For the most part, the contact center is everything we were looking for. The only issue I have is the analytics. The report I need does not exist so I have to pull two reports and gain my metrics from there. The reports by themselves are informational, but not enough for what I need. Setting up the phone lines, new members and deactivating members is very easy and can be done in minutes. Routing calls to new groups or Queues is very user friendly and alterations can be done quickly and instantly.

Knowledgeable reps can access through email, live chat, or phone. The issue was resolved with first contact the last time I reached out, but the live chat was a bit slow in simple responses. A phone call might have been quicker.

We initially experienced issues with getting prompt support. Their support management responded well to our feedback and works hard to improve. However, there is still room for improvement in the handoff from support to their operations and engineering teams. Specifically, would like to see improved communication from those internal teams.

Polite service staff who are pleasant and patient, especially when I am frustrated. They keep talking to me and working through the issue and looking for solutions. One time I was talking to a support person and her shift was ending, so we scheduled a call the next day at the beginning of my shift, and she followed through with it. Great service!
