The Nextiva team is always quick to help when something isn't working as intended or I need help changing policies. They are true to their SLA and any downtime we have experienced in the last 4 years has been clearly communicated before hand.

“Nextiva's Struggles with Stability: A User's Experience”
3.0Jul 23, 2024
They have provided service to our company for about 4 years and we went from a PBX to them as our first experience with a fully cloud based PBX product. We loved the UI and how it flows nicely, BUT we wished it worked better and that we would not have to call in when the changes we made in the UI were not effective or worked as anticipated because of a disconnect between the UI and the backend of Nextiva. Know that this is NOT going to act like an on-site PBX and you should anticipate higher volumes of help calls when you go to a system like this, which we had to learn the hard way. Being from a non-profit and having a smaller than normal staff pool, the system definitely makes it harder to support, for all involved, when you have a workforce not used to technology. We also had a disappointing experience with the Nextiva phone app, which I, still to this day, have it forwarding to my regular cell phone number to prevent me from missing (due to not ringing) or having regular dropped calls through the app - it has been over a year since I made this change. The app is also not reliable enough to support one of our lines of business that involves first responders - it would consistently drop calls or not ring when people needed our help. We ended up switching providers for this department because Nextiva was unable to meet our needs for this team. The last, but not the least thing I would like to mention is that their support people are responsive and relatively quick to respond when a ticket is entered, but when Nextiva releases updates that regularly break things that were working or don't address things that have been broken for some time, it makes it very hard to appreciate their support if you just get ticket-fatigue from the volume of tickets you have to put in.
Key Insights
A Snapshot of What Matters - Based on Validated User Reviews
Nextiva is a company specializing in business communication solution. It offers an integrated platform where all business discussions can be conducted, which in turn, facilitates improved customer experiences. Their main business problem solved is the disjointed nature of business communications. The majority of their operations are in North America, and their financial support is received from Goldman Sachs. The company's value at the recent financial evaluation was calculated to be $2.7B.
This product is very very easy to administer, has great quality during actual use, and is very easy for our end users to learn.
The simple UI and the ease of setting up a new phone system and their responsive support team.
The reporting / live metrics, adaptability to call flow needs.
Due to our user base we require physical desk phones over soft phones. Over the years there have been a few issues specific to the desk phones. One being that they don't always like to transfer calls correctly with users getting a transfer failed error. Typically trying again is all that is needed to fix this issue but at times we've had to have the caller call back and try again.
Nextiva phone app - works better now, but still much to be desired, volume of tickets, UI not affecting backend setup like it should.
The change in customer service, previously I could open a chat for support and receive help typically within 5-15 mins, lately the average wait time is 45 mins , calling can be equally frustrating when you are tied up on the phone with support for sometimes hours. Additionally, there are many features that seem to be only manageable through Nextiva's end, so contacting support is required, such as assigning actual call center licenses, turning on or off hotel features, etc.

Live Metrics Valued But Increased Dependence on Support Slows Administrative Tasks
4.0Apr 3, 2026
It's a good system with a lot of features, customizable to many of our company's needs. However, I do wish there was more control as an administrator, constantly having to contact Nextiva support to enable or disable certain features makes changes more time costly than they should be.

Overall a great product we would recommend
4.0Mar 10, 2026
Switching from our previous provider was easy, and the provided equipment has been working well for several years. The user interface is user-friendly, customer support is prompt and efficient, and they check in at regular intervals to make sure things are working as expected.
Nextiva consistently works! We have users that take advantage of the mobile app on iOS and Android, as well as the Desktop app for Windows. We even have a significant portion of the company using the Android app on their ChromeOS devices. The fair cost and customizability is a great value.

Portal Features Intuitive Navigation and Visually Appealing Design for Users
5.0Apr 13, 2026
The platform is an easy to use and easy to navigate portal. Any issues I have come across I have either been able to self diagnose or resolve with over the phone assistance.
