Overall Satisfaction with 8x8 Virtual Office

Virtual Office is used by a subset of our users (department specific). We use it to enhance communication by giving users another alternative beyond simply calling or using email to have an integrated text/chat feature, web meeting portal and fax management solution.
  • Manages user's "presence".
  • Easy to use faxing hub.
  • Call logging easy to review.
  • Missing functionality in new versions of software - they removed tons of features from the classic Virtual Office.
  • Buggy application - many glitches for user experience.
  • Updated far too infrequently.
  • It's positive in that it's given us a new communications platform from our failing previous one, but there's still a long way to go.
We liked 8x8's look and feel and overall back-end management more than the other vendors we reviewed, such as EvolveIP, Cisco and other hosted options (Avaya, Asterisk)
The app definitely needs a lot of work and feature updates for me to regularly recommend it.
