Broadvoice is our phone system installed roughly 2 years ago. Hands on ability to monitor each user and voicemails is key when needed. Ability to change greetings is also a feature we use regularly. Offering forwarding to cell is a key problem that Broadvoice addresses.
  • Customer Service is top notch
  • User ability to change greetings & office hours very helpful
  • Ability to change visible lines on each phone / program speed dials is good
  • None - haven't had any issues that weren't easily fix
We as a company are very happy with Broadvoice. It is an improvement over our last system. Their customer service is always quick to solve any issues - and usually it is something I should know how to do! They are patient while I work through figuring it out so I can "help myself" in the future. The lines are clear. The ring can be customized if desired. You can access from your cell phone. We are happy customers!
  • We can make changes to phone layout (direct dial buttons)
  • Viewing past incoming calls (a directory for history)
  • Very intuitive use
  • Customer support is a huge necessity that others appreciate if I happen to be off!

  • Ability to add/remove phones allows us to be "current" with our phone bills (not paying for too many)

We all use the system equally and are pleased with its functions
1
Power User - love the ablilty to go in and use the website to make changes. It's nice to know the system is there and not be afraid to make mistakes - it's relatively easy to use...
And if something comes up that I don't know how to set up, customer service is always available and able to help.
  • Unsure of question...
  • Nothing innovative - we are pretty low-tech here so it's the basics for us.
  • Mobile functionality - biggest unused feature for us
I rarely give 10's! I suspect we will be with Broadvoice for many years as we are quite happy with it.
Yes
8X8 phone system - cost and functionality
  • Ease of Use
As I said we are low-tech here, and your "ease of use" was a huge factor
Wouldn't change a thing.
Our implementation happened during Covid and everyone was working from home. With that being said, I believe the turnover went quite well. We were down a short period, but once reported to Broadvoice they quickly got it fixed. All of my colleagues felt the transfer went well also.
  • Implemented in-house
No
  • Covid was a huge (unavoidable) issue. Broadvoice worked well with this obstacle.
  • We did have a brief down time, but it was handled quickly.
  • Online Training
  • In-Person Training
  • No Training
Did not have in-person training! I cannot get through the survey without answering this question!
Overcame obstacles of everyone being in different places. Trainer was excellent (do not remember her name!). Open to all questions no matter how technical. The feedback from my colleagues were they were happy
Had training - again, cannot complete survey unless I answer all the questions - whether they apply or not!
I do have issues sometimes with the configuring of a line - however all I need to do is contact Broadvoice and they will assist!
I always TRY! They've given a hint of looking at a similart profile and duplicate it. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't. They are understanding if I still need to call.
No - we have not done any customization to the interface
No - we have not done any custom code
None at this time.
Always available to help with problems. Happy with respons time.
No I don't beleive so. We wanted to wait to see if needed.
No
It's been a while since I've had to call so cannot pinpoint. Honestly anytime I've called I get excellent service.
Pretty intuitive. I do have questions frequently on how to make changes/updates becuase I have to do them so infrequently - but the help desk is ALWAY available and helpful.
  • Call Park and/or hold
  • Conference calling
  • Looking up numbers who called or we called (directory of recent calls)
  • Voicemail easy to use
  • As the main person who makes changes, I still have a hard time reassigning a number to a new employee (but doesn't happen often so I need a refresher!)
Yes, but I don't use it
Giving a neutral answer as this is something we do not need and therefore do not utilize.
AWAYS available to assist when I call. I could not be happier about that!
Any issues are usually overcome fairly quickly.
We don't utilize reports offered by the system - we are a small company and the monitoring that would provide is just not something we would utilize.

This was over 3 years ago - but I remember distictly how easy it was to get this going. Could be that I was prepared for a disaster with the Covid factor - but was pleasantly surprised.
As said in many of my answers - Broadvoice is attentive to us when I call. Very pleased.
This is not an answer I am privy to!
Did not assist in the purchase of this system.

The client was previously being serviced by AT&T with their higher pricing for, in my opinion, less service, and sub-par support.

I have known my Rep for quite some time and have used his expertise to guide my clients to their best solutions.

This is one of several implementations I have used Broadvoice for, and I will stay with them as they provide the best solution and support for my clients, large & small!
  • Adaptability
  • Fast response
  • Fast knowledgeable support
  • Great pricing
  • Fast deployment of new service
  • Truthfully I have yet to find an issue needing improvement
I used Broadvoice to provide telecom for one of my larger clients, a larger (25+ users) with a large combination of on-site and off-site users. They made it easier than I could have dreamed of.
  • Fast response to support needs
  • Fast setup and deployment
  • Knowledgeable tech support
  • Simplification
  • ROI
  • Reliability
