8x8 Contact Center Likes & Dislikes

Like

Reliability by far. The platform essentially never goes down, and on the rare occasion that it does occur, 8x8's engineering team prioritizes rapid resolution. Their quick response and commitment to uptime gives us confidence that our contact center will stay running smoothly.

Like

Call center reports software is great to use. Good connections to CRMs Easy learning curve for users.

Like

- Ease of use: listening to voice messages, tracking operational activity, and using the analytics platform are all intuitive and efficient.

Dislike

The main area that could be improved is support. Many of the support teams are based overseas and at times language barriers can make issues harder to work through. Having more US based support would make the entire experience better.

Dislike

Bad support with slow responses and not good advice Frequent outages Cost can balloon quickly. Admin side of application is very complicated

Dislike

- configuration process is difficult to handle independently. Without support, it can be challenging to make changes or set up new flows - subtleties in terminology or script behabiors that are not easy to grasp without expert guidance
