Overall Satisfaction with VirtualPBX

As a long-time customer of VirtualPBX dating back to the company's original systems, I am pleased to write a review in support of the product. The problem addressed is the telecommuting environment versus in-office. The new platform is quite impressive and very extensible and it does things we never imagined we could do. Support is great as well. In a corporate or non-profit setting one of the greatest challenges is how phone calls are handled, especially when calls have to go to specific departments or have to be handled by the executive offcies in a certain manner. VirtualPBX setup for a call center ACD was quite comprehensvive but it requires little effort on the part of the telecom manager managing the installation. ii truly went flawlessly in our case and was a tremendous improvement over the limited capabilities available in the original VirtualPBX. It's important also to know how many features and functions employees will have to use and face on day 1. Cutover days for phone systems requires a flack jacket if not more. I've lived through many. I've also almost not lived through several.

The peole from VirtualPBX were on top of every small detail and they actually pushed me instead of vice versa. I found that their ability to track projects and contact with reminders was very welcome.

I am quite grateful to VirtualPBX for having its braintrust come up with this tremendous virtual private branch exchange offering. It is head and shoulders above the rest when you have a largely virtual operation and that is why I was happy to write this review.

Pros

  • Admin interface
  • User interface
  • Calling processing
  • Project management
  • Repair

Cons

  • Possibly a better way of covering the one zillion features and functions in classes
  • Possibly a better way of covering the one zillion features and functions in classes
  • Our people are able to focus on helping Long Covid patients without worrying about the phone system
  • Planning was simple. Installation was simple. Implementation was simple. The cutover was simple. Does this get my point across?
I used to do usability consulting. I would give the platform 11 if I could.

The platform seems very much designed following usability studies of what actual employees would do in specific scenarios. We haven't encountered anything it cannot do.
We started with the irugubak VirtualPBX around the year 2000. We were extremely satisfied with that and now can't say more about the newly updated version.

As for other system,I did not feel it was at all necessary to investigate given our extreme satisfaction with this vendor

My organization has been virtual since the 1980s. We know how hard it is to function without a PBX that functions as the glue that holds the organization together alone with a solid computer network. Anyone managing a hybrid or completely remote enterprise is a candidate for the VirtualPBX platform. Period. End of quote.
