Overall Satisfaction with 8x8 X Series
8x8 X Series gives our company the portability need, especially with COVID-19 and the fact that most of our employees are working from home offices. Setup was fairly easy. We purchased phones, set up our network internally, and finished setup with 8x8 within a few hours. I have deployed all 8x8 products to our workers - from physical phones, mobile soft phone apps, and applications that are available on Mac and PC. One gripe I do have about 8x8 X Series is the new X-Series administrative console. [From my experience] the learning curve is steep and we were not offered any training before it was rolled out to us. I have had to contact support on issues that used to be relatively straightforward. I'm slowly getting the hang of it, but hopefully, there will be an overhaul to the X-Series platform soon.
