Our 8x8 solution is efficient, economical, and reliable; but their support needs improvement.

8x8 is a critical part of our business and when there have been issues, which fortunately is not often, it has been difficult to get an 8x8 support agent with the knowledge to solve our issue on the phone quickly. We expect the immediacy of phone support, not the tedium of slow to be responded to support by email.

We've had to contact support a lot since the product is not easy to use. Some of the support specialists are better than others. Their support team really lacks in their knowledge of the 8x8 plug-in and how that works and interfaced with Salesforce. Your team does now know the limitations of the product.

Representatives were a step ahead, patient, knew what I was asking and wanting help with when I did not explain it very clearly, and got everything I called in for done every time.

Mostly they are good; I had a horrible experience with our account manager and had to have a new one appointed. If I am calling in for support it's because we need help ASAP. At times it takes a while to get answers

8x8 understands that call center solutions place a lot of eggs in one basket and that if things go wrong the issue gets exponentially bigger very quickly. 8x8 prioritizes VCC issues while also offering other options like email and live chat for everyday issues, changes, etc.

I have gotten good support from the 8x8 team whenever the need arises. For 8x8 Contact Center, I do recommend that you ask to have your call escalated if you do have a more complex question with 8x8 VCC's scripts or channels. They work with you very well whenever you need to change something and work with your change control procedures.

I haven't had to use the support yet, although our IT manager does from time to time. He seems satisfied with the response rate and level of support.

I'm not aware that our organization has ever had to contact 8x8 Contact Center customer service in the almost two-year time period that I've worked with my organization. Therefore, I cannot provide an honest answer to this question, although never having to contact 8x8 Contact Center customer service in this scenario tends to show that the product has worked well for our organization.

They are efficient when you get the right rep. Sometimes support is difficult to deal with and are quick to jump to conclusions to what they think is wrong but only make matters worse or have me go around in circles to get an answer.

I like to be able to contact a support rep by phone and get going right away when needed. The 8x8 support experience is mediocre at best. The reps don't seem overly knowledgeable and come across as focused more on getting the case resolved than taking care of the customer's needs. For basic things they get the job done but if you have more advanced questions prepare to wait. Also, if you are using contact center and virtual office and are troubleshooting issues that involve both systems, prepare to get passed back and forth, and maybe get your issue resolved in several days but probably longer.

The team has been very responsive and helpful whenever we have a question. They have also directed us to the many useful videos in the database for reference. Every time we have a question about how something works, the support team is very responsive and answers all of our questions quickly.

As I mentioned earlier, support is split between the Contact Center and the Business office solution. Contact Center go to US-based agents, Business offices go to an offshore call center, likely in the Phillippines. Support is just average compared to other solutions.

Customer service is based in the Philippines. Most agents I have spoken to speak fluent English. But being able to speak it does not mean you understand the uses of words in general, specific or technical conversation. In my experience so far, conversational English is lacking. The understanding of nuance and meaning with words conveyed is not there. If you call 8x8 for support, you will be repeating yourself many, many times. Trying to hang up the phone if/when you finally reach completion of a project takes far to long with everything they are 'required' to say. It is very very poorly done. It is a very painful experience having to call 8x8 for technical support.

My first time having to contact support I went through 3 different people all trying to fix the same issue. When escalated to the next group we wasted a day doing what the previous person had already tried. Support was difficult to catch because of time zones.

I like the tool, but there is still room for improvement by means of internal external calling, getting direct extensions, and a more user-friendly experience in terms of gathering analytics and transferring calls, etc.

I do enjoy the options to live monitor and whisper and join calls alongside reps.
