Well rounded program
Pros
I love the voicemail feature. Made it easy when you are on the go. And the fax feature. No need for a fax machine with that!
Cons
We had some issues with the phone system but the overall web features were great

Best VOIP option
We use the 8x8 Contact Center for all of our phone needs in all of our offices. We use it to pull call reports, forward our calls to our answering service, and to forward calls to external cell phones in case of an emergency. We are very pleased!
Pros
It is so easy to use! The virtual account center is so easy to use and troubleshoot. I can pull call reports for any phone extension or ring group in seconds. Customer support is easy to get a hold of and our sales rep always answers back within 24 hours. We reach out to support once in a blue moon since 8x8 is so easy to use. Although we primarily use the desktop account center, we have been increasingly been using the phone app to work from home. It is so simple to use. Lastly, the cost is also unbeatable. We've enjoyed a years long business relationship with 8x8 and will continue to do so.
Cons
I can't think of anything negative to say about this software. The cost, support, and platform are everything we need.

8x8 Contact Center: Less than Perfect Customer Service
8x8 Contact Center helped us a lot when we began working remotely, setting up the application on our personal use computer and cell phone, etc. In the months since the pandemic began it has become increasingly difficult to speak to a person at the contact center however and the tier system they use to escalate issues is inefficient.
Pros
8x8 is great to use to facilitate communication between techs and office staff and office staff and customers.
Cons
The system is glitchy and customer service is not always responsive- due in part to the pandemic and also because support staff work from overseas.

8X8 REVIEW
Overall, the issues that we have had outweigh the positives and I don't think we will continue to use them once our contract is up.
Pros
I like that I am able to have calls forwarded to my cell while I am not in the office and that I can call clients from the app and it displays our office number and not my cell.
Cons
I have had several issues with this software that after multiple contacts with customer support have still not been resolved.

Good phone alternative
Yesterday I went on the chat to get help in something I messed up. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] Customer Support Representative fixed it immediately, she was professional, pleasant and helpful. It was a pleasure to deal with her.
Pros
We first started using 8x8 when we got away from the high price of traditional phone companies. I like that it is internet-based so no need for expensive wiring, easy to move, the ability to forward the phones to a cell phone especially in an emergency, and it allows me to track calls.
Cons
Sometimes it is difficult to figure out the features. Sometimes the phone has to be reset because of noise interference.
