Overall Satisfaction with 8x8 X Series (Formerly Virtual Office)

8x8 X Series was chosen to replace a legacy VoIP phone service. The implementation was smooth and we received very good support from 8x8 throughout the process. Any problems that arose were quickly and properly addressed. The free trial period was an excellent opportunity to try out the service which is not offered by other providers.
  • Incentives and offers
  • Intuitive mobile app
  • Very good support from our account manager
  • Better response from their customer service center
  • More flexibility in the timing of the free trial during the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Setting up auto attendants is simple, but time consuming
  • Very cost-effective plans available
  • Hardware is extremely affordable.
  • There is no billing for support.
The primary reason that we chose to test 8x8 X Series was the free trial period and the subscription/hardware incentives offered. In all aspects, 8x8 stacked up neck and neck with the other companies we looked into. These offerings pushed them over the top and allowed us to truly evaluate the service to ensure it fit our needs.
The support has been excellent overall. Our account manager is responsive and ensures any questions or issues are resolved quickly. The call center for support has room for improvement but still is rather good.

8x8 X Series is an excellent service for a small organization such as ours. They offer and specialize in contact center solutions, which is not an offering that we currently make use of. The apps and phone hardware are well made and easy to set up. User management through the online portal is quite intuitive.
