Most recommended VoIP provider

We are quite happy with the 8x8 Contact Center overall. It is user-friendly, packed with features, and reasonably priced. In each of our offices, we use it for all of our telephone requirements, including retrieving call logs, forwarding calls to our answering service, and forwarding calls to external cell phones in case of an emergency. It's simple to contact customer service, and a sales representative always responds within a day. Although we mostly operate from the desktop account center, we have started using the phone app more and more as well. It is quite easy to use.

Pros
  • Easy to use, affordable and great customer support.
Cons
  • None.

Customer service is so bad they won't even let me cancel my subscription.

This software's customer support was atrocious. It always needed multiple logins for various apps and it was cumbersome. We choose to change to a new system after utilizing it for almost ten years. The business is now threatening to put us on collections unless we pay a $8,000 ransom to buy the remainder of our contract. We weren't informed when we first joined up that accepting the contract would commit us to a perpetual agreement that renews year and doesn't allow users to cancel, even if the service is subpar.

Pros
  • Worked OK for nearly 10 years .
Cons
  • Clunky, required separate logins and customer service was terrible.
