The cost of the handsets might bring down the value of software

Pros

is a good tool for call management, and monitoring of specialists in total, you can take advantage of your tool to configure and create the different work stations.

something that I do not like about the one I am currently using, is that it usually hangs with many calls.

Good VoIP software for on premise business and can be distributed to different sites depending on the demand.

Cons

Avaya as a company has had its ups and downs. They have sold up much of their product lines to keep their VOIP line alive.

Would happily recommend to anyone looking at a phone solution for their office, both on -premise or in the cloud. Easy to use and get up and running quickly.

Cons

-UI is a bit dated and can be improved
-Very menu heavy and could be streamlined with a more concise feature set

Pros

Very easy to setup new phones and extensions. Easy to copy button programming and other features. Setting up Hunt groups is a very easy and gives flexibility as to the order the Hunt group rings.

Cons

I'm not sure if this is a software or system issue, but if voicemail is turned off people are still able to forward messages to those extensions. Creates more work to turn on the voicemail, retrieve the message, and then turn it back off. It doesn't seem like it is truly off.

Pros

Avaya is a great office system for everyday use. Reliable and feature rich in terms of operation and on screen control.

Cons

Our system uses mainly on screen control, this may not necessarily be a con to many people, and the hard phone is still accessible. The one thing I found difficult was the chat that is available through the software, the log in and way to access seemed cumbersome and clunky.

Pros

Our rep is very friendly and helpful, even calls us back when he is on vacation since we usually call him directly instead of going through the call center. It is easy to change names, extensions, voicemails, available times, etc on our end and he trained me on that aspect himself. You can set up "trees" to ring to certain groups in a certain order, turn voicemails on or off, send the phones to the automated system manually or on a schedule.

Cons

Occasionally we have small issues, such as a phone we took off of "forward" still being forwarded and we have to put it back on forward and then take it off.

I recommend looking for an alternative, it is better an analog phone, than a digital one with this company

Pros

Once configured, it does its job very well, it allows you to configure independent privileges for each user or group of users

Cons

The program overwrites all the users at the same time, so if you configure a user, they will be overwriting all of them. During the configuration of the program it loses the values ​​easily, on several occasions settings of all my users were erased.

Pros

Real-time collaboration, from basic telephony to the most sophisticated unified communications
Go from five employees to 1,000
Easily launch applications for everyone: mobile and office workers even remote staff
Track, record, and report on calls to ensure optimal customer interactions

Cons

Avaya website is hard to make service request or support requests
Too many processes involved in licensing and registration process

Pros

If you can afford to fork up enough money to their top tier product, it will definitely handle everything and CS support is better.

Cons

Lower tiers of this product is tedious and crashes constantly causing cx and employee issues. not a good thing

Pros

The Value and the user friendly interface this is one of the best voip phone services out there used in large call centers

The system is very robust and stable, the failures experienced are minimal and the service received from the equipment is great.

Pros

The IP telephony has helped us solve major operational problems, in addition the system has several tools that allow you to have a good administration, the configuration is relatively simple and maintenance is simple. In addition you can add other optional benefits such as voicemail, call recording, the Avaya Equinox app among many other features.

Cons

The equipment and licenses are expensive, there are rumors that the system will disappear what creates this expectation if we have made the right investment.

Pros

The IP Office is feature rich & extremely flexible.
The Programming interface & structure is simple to understand.

Cons

Due to the deceptively simple programming interface, it is easy for inexperienced users to misconfigure & then incorrectly assume that ensuing problems are due to the system.
And the cost is comparatively high.

A bit biased as we are an Avaya Business Partner that offers the IP Office in a cloud hosted (PoweredBy Avaya) offering.

Pros

Great features. System is great for everyone, from the small restaurant or home office to the multi location 2000+ employee organization or call center. Price points on the cloud system are excellent, competitive to most major cloud pbx providers, while getting more features and functionality.

Cons

Not a whole lot. But for those purchasing a system, the pricing can be a bit higher than some of the others, but going the cloud route may be best.

Pros

Avaya provides the phones and set up for their system. Setting up voice mail is fairly easy and it has the option to forward voicemails to email. Wireless calling is also available with additional headsets but our staff love them.

Cons

The user interface on their phones requires some learning. For staff who are not accustomed to using the phones regularly this can be frustrating. It is farily expensive but comprehensive. We've also had an issue where calls on hold get dropped after a certain amount of time and have not found a good solution to this. After researching extensively it seems to be an issue with Avaya. Searching through the contacts can also be difficult.
