Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"3CX has a graphical user interface, and this is awesome because I don't have to have an IT person from my company in my customer's environment to set up and configure 3CX for my client. I just train the customer.""Mobility features and remote extensions work well.""3CX is useful and easy to use. I can talk to my colleagues from anywhere.""The dashboards and interface of the solution are very good, they have covered most of the main features needed for our needs.""3CX is a reliable solution.""Easy management console access through web browsers with a good interface to Outlook and multiple CRM systems.""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.""The most valuable features of 3CX Live Chat are the integration with our existing CRM allowing us to get all of the numbers synced together. The communication aspect of the solution was always working very well, the sound quality was perfect. We were able to log into the application to check which users were using the solution and if they were in a call or not. Additionally, the solution integrates well with other CRMs."

"The automated system allows for control, including adding in MP3s for sound clips. This keeps businesses looking professional when customers call in.""It allows us to serve our clients from home exactly as though we were in the office.""We now eFax pretty much everything. I no longer have fax machines and have to deal with paper. We had a situation where one person, specifically, would come onto a floor for a fax machine. After restocking the fax machine with paper, so that it could finish all the faxes that they got over the weekend, They would then convert all those things into PDF documents. By going to eFax, they're getting them as emails and it's already a PDF document. This saves a step, a lot of time, and effort. We are also able to provide fax machines to individuals at their desktop by having eFax. In my case, I have my phone set up to be both a phone and a fax line, so it just shows up in my email."

Cons
"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.""In 3CX, customization is not as easy as I would like. With 3CX Call Flow Designer, you can set up the flow of a call, deliver it to the department, and automate the process. I can't do many things with this.""It could be better in terms of providing more options for call recording.""3CX Live Chat could improve by having better integration with other solutions because we had multiple calls in which information was not extracted correctly. We had to modify their names, and some other data needed to be sorted out for a better understanding of the calls.""Having a video call would be a nice idea.""You cannot make a group call on 3CX. That feature would make my life easier because I could talk to two suppliers or a supplier and management together. I wouldn't need to end the call and call another person.""The analytics need to have a granular depth on how the customer details and the data sends information through this medium.""It needs the option for the CS rep to stop recording when a credit card number is recited by the customer."

More 3CX Live Chat Cons →

"We just had one service interruption, which was due to an upstream carrier. They sent us hourly updates, letting us know what was going on and that it was being worked on. It was down for about half a day.""We'd like pre-set computers with GoToConnect and all features embedded in laptops or other devices.""The ring delay could be improved. Our cell phones often continue to ring after we have answered the phone."

    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:I'm not 100% sure. However, it’s my understanding that there is no cost.
    Top Answer:The solution's features for scheduling and generating reports need improvement. It fails to provide updated data. We have to connect with third-party tools for reports costing us additional expenses.
