    Not the worst but not the best phone system

    Pros

    It has all the functions that are desirable in a phone system. Calls, IMs, faxing, etc. It is a classic phone system that can meet your minimum requirements and the dial-in app for creating meetings works well.

    Cons

    Our company switched to a new phone system because we would have frequent dropped calls and the IMs would not notify when a message was sent until hours later.

    Works well for enterprise environments. Many features with low overhead. Easy to navigate menus and easy to manager settings.

    Cons

    Can be sketchy when cloud servers go down. Find that support for this product is sometimes difficult. Frequent updates can cause more issues than they fix.

    It's easy to use and solid product for the price. Great for business!

    Pros

    I like the mobility of the product. As long as you have high speed internet, you can work remotely. I also text a lot through the system that works great.

    Cons

    I dislike answering calls via my cell. Certainly needs work in this area of the product and I have never had a super clear call. lots of delay and breaking up.

    We were able to all work remotely on some days and 8x8 allowed us to do that. We had ease of access to everyone.

    Cons

    We would have a lot of voicemail issues.
    It was very hard for our office to access individual extensions.
    It was a very long learning curve with this product.

    Pros

    The phone system is easy to use and has great support. We used this system in multiple locations and it worked well for us.

    Cons

    The only pitfall we found was the occasional internet outage. Generally we were not without phones for long, but it is still an inconvenience.

    Pros

    I loved having the app on my phone and my pc so that incoming calls could be answered anywhere, without having to share my mobile phone number.

    Cons

    Some of the menus in the phone itself were a bit complicated. Also the app on the pc didn't always work. It seemed like some of the features were disabled even though they were included in our service.

    Pros

    Before i started to use this app i haved a slow perfomance when i try to keeped in touch with my team becouse we live in diferent areas, but when we find this app, things change, now we can keep in touch all the time any moment, just like we were together. the software run on multiple plataforms so we dont have to adap to the software. The tools to integrate all the team members in one screen, i love it

    Cons

    the price is a little to hig for smalls bussines. Altough works in multiple plataforms, the perfomance tends to change depends on wich system you are, for example: In iOS system works great but in Android divices some times get bugged

The UI make you want to married te app and the features that they provied you are just the one me and my team need

    Cons

    They have a lot to immproved in some OS like android or linux, in this OS the app go into bugs and some features stop working, things that do not happent in IOS, and the support center can not solve this issues. Another thing that is menor but still i think is a problem is the fac taht they shot down the fax feature, ok i understand that fax are becoming obsolet but when you work with people in diferents areas that tool is very time saver

    Overall, Virtual Office is easy to use with a nice set of tools. The mobile application allows for calls to be taken seamlessly on the go. Meetings and conference bridges can be configured quickly and there are available browser extensions that extend the features.

    Cons

    The virtual meeting has improved since it's introduction, but it is cumbersome to use when compared with similar online meeting offerings.

    Team members are able to accept/transfer calls. Having the queue system helps with work flow.

    Pros

    The UI is fairly easy to navigate. Also, the reporting and monitoring features come in handy for data collection and analysis.

    Cons

    The program freezes quite frequently. Team members are forced to restart the program on an almost daily basis, which ends up wasting a fair amount of time.

    The layout of the website is not very user-friendly. Navigating the website takes some practice but once you have the hang of it and are familiar with it, it becomes easier.

    You can message with your coworkers easily.

    Pros

    I like that it allows you to message with the members of your organization easily. I like that it lets you know when other coworkers are on the phone.

    Cons

    Very glitchy and causes your computer to run very slow as it uses a lot of computer recourses. Many times you have to shut the program down and reopen it just to be able to toggle off DND or just because it stopped working.

    Decent system with option to work remotely.

    Pros

    Our business loves the option to run 8x8 through employee's cell phones, so they can take customer calls at home. It has allowed our representatives to work from home over the weekend, instead of coming into the office.

    Cons

    Their customer support department is difficult to work with, and frequently ends calls without resolving the issue at hand. We have an ongoing issue where an employee's extension gets stuck on "Do Not Disturb", and they cannot get calls. Support will fix the one-time issue, but does not address the fact that it is ongoing and disrupts business.

    Pros

    For the most part, it seems to do the job as intended. It allows me to make/receive business phone calls from my cell phone, receive voicemails, etc.

    Cons

    I think the integration between platforms could be improved (i.e. between the phone and the phone app and the PC app). I found the app very difficult to set up, especially things like call forwarding. And I think the app signs you out frequently and unless you go into the app you don't know that, so you think you're signed in and ready to receive calls but you're really signed out. I've missed calls for this reason.

    We have used this service for over a year with over 150 users accounts. It has been terrible and unreliable, leadership has been unresponsive to requests to removes our many documented issues.

    Pros

    Seemless service, and that is it, but that is only when it works, which is 1 out of 10 times. very buggy.

    Cons

    It never works, and I mean never...app's are buggy, clients and customers do not care for s/w download to join a conference, its a large and clunky file.
