Find out what your peers are saying about 3CX, Kamailio, Digium and others in Unified Communications."The most valuable features are call recording, call logging, and the stability."
"There are free versions of the solution available."
"The solution is scalable and is capable of working on every appliance on every operating system."
"I like the fact that it opens up your video conferencing, and, in many cases, the audio at the same time."
"The most valuable feature of Skype for Business is overall it is an okay solution."
"Making calls and having meetings is easy."
"I think Skype for Business is scalable. However, I believe Microsoft is discontinuing the Skype platform altogether, so I don't think it's super-relevant."
"You can do meetings of up to two hundred people in a single conversation."
"The most valuable features of the solution are that it is quick and easy to use. It is a good tool for group calls."
"CTI, computer telephony integration, is a necessary component. It must be a part of the basic code. Currently, we need to use external connectors for call centers."
"I am not familiar with all of the features or whether they can hold conferences because we use Zoom for that. But, in my opinion, if they can do something similar to what Zoom is doing, it will be a complete solution."
"The solution should improve the chat and add more flexibility to make a call."
"It would be ideal if the solution could make instant messages more permanent. Currently, if you close the conversation, you lose the instant messages that you shared during the meeting. If those could last beyond the meeting, that would be a great addition, due to the fact that frequently, people give each other key details, important information, or email addresses, etc., during the meeting. If you don't write it down during the meeting, after the meeting closes, it's gone forever. That can be quite frustrating."
"Make it user friendly."
"I feel bored with the look and feel of the tool, so it should be changed."
"The solution lacks to provide reporting functionality, and I would like to see the solution provide that feature."
"Going forward, I would like to see better call quality and reliability."
"The tool needs to have a dynamic file updating feature, so people you share a file with could update the file dynamically, all at once, all at the same time."
