FAVORABLE

“Tech Support Responsiveness and User-Friendly Reporting Stand Out in Daily Use”

5.0
Nov 19, 2025
There are a few reasons like how easy the application is to use and how the reporting system works but what I love the most is their tech support. I had an issue recently with integrating 8x8 with SF and Rudolf quickly solved my issue without much back and forth.

The service itself has been mostly stable, however the support received from 8x8 support, as well as account services, has been atrocious.

8x8 Work Likes & Dislikes

Like

Applications (Desktop, web app, and phone) Reporting System - It's easy to know how each team member is performing Tech support

Like

The actual service itself seems to be stable, and we haven't had any major outages.

Like

I like that 8x8 Work guarantees secure communications. Scaling is easy and it is available for both in-house and our remote teams. I like that it integrates with other business apps including Salesforce and Google Workspace which streamlines our business workflows.

Dislike

Phone app - There are times that it takes a few minutes to load Other than that, I haven't found anything else I dislike about the product so far

Dislike

Sales rep flat out lied about features to get the sale. Then showed no remorse when challenged. The tenant was built incorrectly. The Engineer did not set up all the features we asked for. Account support has been terrible. Account managers are constantly changing without any sort of notification. We've had escalations that were never resolved. Due to an accounting error, we were double-billed for an entire year, and getting a credit back has taken months (still not resolved).

Dislike

8x8 Work has delivered without compromises.
