Find out in this report how the two Virtual Meetings solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of 3CX Live Chat are the ability to go straight to a call or screen-sharing and creating multiple channels from the same chat widget effectively. The ability to raise a call straight out to the cloud is fantastic, it is really useful. Additionally, it integrates very well with WordPress."
"3CX has strong reporting and management features. You can manage the capabilities of a call center with queues and timers. It's a complete solution."
"The integration between the video and voice is the most valuable solution."
"3CX is easy to use. It's pretty a much regular PBX system. It is quite easy to configure aspects of it, and it has a good soft client."
"3CX is useful and easy to use. I can talk to my colleagues from anywhere."
"The integration with SMS has been helpful. That's how a lot of customers prefer to communicate nowadays. It makes it convenient for the customer to reach us."
"This solution gives our customers mobility. They can use their phone system everywhere. The other key feature is the security."
"The call queue and reporting systems are robust compared to what you have to pay to get the same level of functionality with a competing system."
"It's very easy to use, very easy to understand. It gives us remote access to the PC without any issues."
"The initial setup is fairly straightforward."
"Better than TeamViewer and useful for fixing problems remotely."
"ConnectWise Connect is very convenient as we can remote to a PC even when it is not within our LAN."
"You can bring up a command prompt remotely and execute commands without having to disturb the user."
"Being able to flip quickly between however many monitors that I have running, detune the video for black and white, or with fewer colors to make it faster, is amazing."
"Control lets us do remote management of machines without having to be on the VPN. It's super simple and super easy."
"The unattended access functionality is a valuable feature, because I can go in at any time that I want, deploy fixes, or do maintenance."
"Some customers want to integrate a CRM solution with 3CX, but it's not compatible."
"3CX Live Chat could improve by being more customizable. There should be more skinning options for the appearance of the solution when we embed it onto a website. This would allow us to make it look more like part of our solution, rather than a third-party application."
"Once we establish the system and do the initial configuration, some configurations will be fixed. However, if we need to change those configurations, the option is to do a reinstallation. Otherwise, we cannot do anything."
"The support team can appear to be condescending."
"Message management in 3CX Live Chat is a little tricky. You can transfer a conversation to someone else if it comes into a group, but it isn't always easy to return the conversation to the group."
"There should be an option to save some extensions."
"Its features for scheduling and generating reports need improvement."
"I need a robust provider who can help me use Live Chat. Unfortunately, I have to move from one provider to another because they don't have enough capabilities to maintain good service."
"The recent redesign has made it slower and basically worthless."
"There could be improvement to the remote command line tools."
"If it had Chrome capability, that would be great; being able to use it on a Chrome device. Right now, I can't use it on my Chrome device."
"Something that I would like to see in the future is mobile video streaming. They do provide audio conferencing, but seeing the problem makes it easier to solve the problem. If they had video streaming, if a client had a physical problem with something and I couldn't get remote access, the client could use his mobile phone to show me the problem. In these cases, even if a client's systems were down, I could help, so long as I had a mobile phone environment."
"There needs to be a way to run the agent without installing, like GoToAssist."
"I really didn't care for the onboarding process and it is something that should be improved."
"I would like ConnectWise Control to be more transparent on the real costs to renew their license."
"On a Linux machine, there are different limitations that are not there on a Windows Server. Much more limitations exist on Linux deployments."
