Find out in this report how the two Unified Communications solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."3CX is useful and easy to use. I can talk to my colleagues from anywhere."
"We have not had any bugs or glitches, the solution is stable."
"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."
"With the reporting feature you can get all the incoming and outgoing call details."
"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."
"It’s straightforward to set up."
"The dashboards and interface of the solution are very good, they have covered most of the main features needed for our needs."
"It is SIP compliant to multiple SIP phone vendors, though it is not locked into a proprietary vendor."
"We use Extension Mobility and Jabber a lot with mobile remote access. In addition to video calls with Jabber, this greatly enriched communications between coworkers."
"The Click to dial feature was one of the most important features for the customer."
"There are a lot of quality of life things that could be improved. When adding extensions, you need to use the extension import setting, you can't just use an import function to update extensions. You have to delete and recreate the extension, which can have all kinds of unintended consequences."
"It could be better in terms of providing more options for call recording."
"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."
"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."
"The solution was simple to install, but the configuration was not as simple. The full installation process took a few days."
"There should be an option to save some extensions."
"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."
"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."
"Some features take a lot of steps to configure, so having areas where a few clicks can configure a feature for a user would be nice."
"An improvement option could be to incorporate the Voicea solution with Communication Manager, allowing it to make a translation between different languages automatically in a conversation."
