8x8 X Series is much better than our previous on-prem NEC solution which was frequently down due to power pages. Also, our previous solution offered little to no integration and lackluster reporting capabilities. The ICA chatbot offering was a big plus that we hope to implement in the near future.

8x8 X Series is far superior to Phone.com. You have excellent support and assistance for challenges. Your service is reliable and easy to use. Your support staff is knowledgeable and the online case portal makes it easy to manage. You user interface is easy to use, visually appealing and offers more functionality than anything we had with Phone.com. Your services and charges are transparent and more cost effective.

Managing it's Admin console part and Configuring is easy after procuring new license or Polycom phone. I myself has done. Best thing is we can claim phone numbers as per the choices. It is user friendly, fast and Quick.

We selected 8x8 X Series over GoTo Connect because we needed a platform that could support the needs of our growing business. We also needed a platform that offered a wide range of features, including unlimited calling, video conferencing, and call recording. Additionally, We were impressed with 8x8 X Series's user-friendly interface and reliable performance.

RingCentral seems to have a better feature set and more options to expand on services where 8x8 falls short. We selected 8x8 based on our vendor recommendation at the time but are looking into possibly moving to Ring Central after some additional evaluation.

  • Spectrum Business (part of Charter Communications)
Hands down 8x8 is superior to the Spectrum Ring Central that we had tried. Interestingly, they supplied the same phone hardware but were unable to suggest an adapter for wifi for the phones. Cost wise very similar but customer experience very different. Above all else, the quality of customer service has made all the difference.

8x8 provided more features and customization than Ooma Office, as well as a better phone selection. We tried Ooma Office before turning to 8x8, and while it worked fine, my colleagues here did not like the way calls could be parked/transferred/managed through their phones. They prefer the way 8x8's Polycom phones work.

Many SaaS platforms offer very much a simialr product-base, however we have found, 8x8 fits a BPO Contact Centre environment extremely well.
