The best VoIP phone system for small businesses
We had a customer that had 3 different companies within the walls of the building. We were able to configure each company separately so that their rules, hours, and each had different SIP providers that needed to be configured up properly. Each had their own digital assistant and the system setup took only a few hours to complete with all the complexity that was involved. Technical support was outstanding in assisting with the troubleshooting and setup.
Pros
The 8 concurrent call Standard License is free to all companies. This makes it a perfect solution for churches, small businesses, and as the small businesses grow into medium sized businesses, the annual cost for the license with higher concurrent calls is nominal. When companies switch from the POTS lines, they need to figure out a good solution for VoIP. 3cx is lower cost than RingCentral and 8x8 as well as many other competing VoIP softwares.
Cons
Putting in supported APAP adapters is great, but when a customer has a non supported adapter, it usually works, but doesn't play nicely with the software as far as configuring it easily.
Response from 3CX
Sincere thanks for your feedback.

Serves small businesses very well for free.
In my opinion, it is a very good tool and hardly ever had problems, because the tool is very stable and with a very good usability, serving very well small businesses.
Pros
• It is free. • Assists in the company's internal communication. • It is always updated with improvements. • Ease of receiving and transferring calls. • Ease of configuration and installation by the end user.
Cons
• We used the trial version quietly for 1 year, but due to technical problems due to a codec, it caused a major internal problem where we stayed 3 days without a phone. For this reason the support of the company that provides the service asked us to change the application.
Reasons for switching to 3CX
Technical problems with the tool, where the company took the decision to discontinue with the tool and acquire another one.
Response from 3CX
We are sorry to hear that you had codec issues. Can you explain which codec was used and what issues it created? Codecs work using the SIP Offer - Answer model - a standard in SIP used for the update of session dialogs. This means that when a codec is offered by one endpoint (phone), and the receiving endpoint answers "no available codec" then a codec exchange occurs where both endpoints try to find one common codec (language) to use for their media. Like this every call is serviced and has more chances to get 2 way audio. It is important to tell us which codec you tried to use. Because firstly, we might have an issue to investigate or we might also give you an alternative codec you can use. We support all major codecs so I am surprised how the company that serves you recommended that you change the whole app. Nonetheless, thank you for your feedback. I will forward this to the development team.

Easy to use but limited features
Pros
Chat Feature is easy to use and instant and calls are clear. Minimal technical issues apart from the odd occasion when it goes down for an hour or so.
Cons
The upgrade visually seemed more like a downgrade. Previous department groups etc were no longer included. If opening a chat with a new contact you have to return to main menu to select the contact and then chat

Softphone very dependent on technical service
It is not very intuitive and users end up reverting to mobile. Technical support takes a long time to provide solutions.
Pros
The price is relatively inexpensive above a certain number of licenses. As we use it to replace the mobile lines and to be able to call customers, we considered making the change.
Cons
Technical support is quite bad and is necessary to deploy updates. It is necessary to configure a VPN with a very complicated configuration in order to have access to the management server.
Reasons for choosing 3CX
Both the integration and the support is done from Spain and we understood that it would be much easier to manage.
Reasons for switching to 3CX
Due to cost issues, the Microsoft & Telefonica (Spain) integration was very expensive, especially with international calls.
Response from 3CX
Hi Alejandro, we're very sorry you had issues with support. We recommend you opt for a 3CX system hosted by 3CX for easy setup and configuration.
