Overall Satisfaction with 8x8 Work

We use 8x8 Work for our incoming calls. Since we receive many calls daily we are able to track them down and get back to our customers in case they don't leave a voicemail. The technology allows us to link our phone system with our computers providing a more efficient customer service. We also use the fax feature which keeps a history.

Pros

  • It marks the missing calls
  • keeps history
  • links into our phone system

Cons

  • free feature for text messages. (Not free anymore)
  • customers enjoy the time waiting on hold since info is educative
  • we are able to provide marketing info while on hold
  • employees are able to respond to calls and messages while on the road
It took a load off our back. We know for sure that we will be able to continue providing an excellent customer service possible 24/7 which is a huge concern for our company. Looking forward to more features in the near future. It's been effective all these years and hope it will continue to do so.
Not sure which one we have used in the past, but we are very happy with 8x8. We have become so used to it that we do not see the need of switching. Price is comfortable and it has been effective for our needs. It's easy and comfortable to use.

Would you buy 8x8 Work again?

Yes

During covid it was very helpful to track the amount of phone calls we recieved daily. With the features 8X8 has it made it very easy to reply to our customers and installers remotely. It was very helpful during that time to the point where we made some changes to what at the time was not implemented.

Evaluating 8x8 Work and Competitors

Yes - I cant remember which one we had but it was outdated and wasn't giving us the effective we needed besides the fact that it gave us many problems. We had to trash them since we were not even able to sell them.
Glad we made the switch. Phone system has a nice appearance, and you are able to
  • Cloud Solutions
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
Cloud Station is the most important for us because it gives us the option to have access 24/7. This allows us to provide great customer service which is a must for our company. Customers have mentioned how comfortable they are with our availability and this is important for our company.
I would not change the evaluation nor the process. It all went smooth and it was a positive outcome, so we are glad and happy exactly the way it went. Would not change it, it was great. Employees are all satisfied and have gotten used to it already. Which is also a positive thing for our company.

8x8 Work Implementation

Change management was a big part of the implementation and was well-handled - We gave a little training but easy enough.

No. Our company is very basic so what we have is good for now. Maybe in the future if we see it is needed then its something we will consider. We are very happy with the fact that we barely have any concerns and when we do call we obtain the support required. So we are good for now.
yes, there was a time where we no longer had the admin employee, and we did not have the password to log in and make changes. We received the proper support; issue was resolved and everything else went smoothly. Great customer service, can't complain.
