I had to give up some functionality to switch to this service from another big service provider, but the saving on the cost was well worth it. Overall, the key functionality works well, there are some issues, and the client support is excellent, so it is definitely a good and practical solution for us.
The desk phones are easy to register and the client support is really good. It is a relatively inexpensive solution considering the reliability of the communication network, the level of service provision, and the terms offered for service utilization.
There are issues with the software. For example, the text messages may arrive multiple times or many all together. Additionally, texts with pictures cannot be sent. Likewise, the contact synchronization process does not go smoothly and requires lots of added work to edit the contacts after syncing.
After using numerous PBX brands, I finally concluded that the simplest PBX with great performance that you can get is Digium Switchvox.
Simple to use, has a familiar interface, and simple to regulate and configure.
Limited advanced actions in the software’s IVR menu

Their phones arrived preset and the onboarding process was remarkably streamlined. Technical support was prompt and effective whenever issues arose.
Despite being dissatisfied with the prices, breaking free required persistent efforts, numerous calls, and the involvement of a manager who didn't initially follow through. The experience of leaving Nextiva was far from smooth, emphasizing caution for potential customers.
