Great monitoring and chat features
I mainly use Comm100 for live chat between users The most valuable features are the ability to monitor users and to have a real-time internal chat with someone while they're chatting with someone on the outside. The system's stability could use an upgrade, it has a tendency to glitch sometimes.…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is a highly flexible and easy to use platform which offers many benefits to our customers."
"3CX Phone System has made the way we handle our calls much more efficient."
"The failover features that come on SP3 allow me to create a replica of 3CX PBX in case the 3CX fails, and the replica becomes active right away, minimizing downtime and data loss."
"The solution is basically an online phone, it doesn't charge you anything, you can contact people easier than using normal applications, and it has powerful and secure connections."
"It's a VOIP PBX based on Windows, it runs rock solid, and is easy to setup and manage."
"Prior to using this solution, there were difficulties with communication between the client and the distributor and our sales team and marketing team, which were improved after deployment because we integrated this voice solution with the video solution and allowed our distributors, clients, and customers to log in to our portal to directly interact with our salespersons."
"The ease of deployment and web interface to manage the phone system is without parallel, the phone system can be deployed within hours, and the cost saving to the client can be up to 80% compared to other systems with the same features."
"Mobility features and remote extensions work well."
"The most valuable features are the ability to monitor users and to have a real-time internal chat with someone while they're chatting with someone on the outside."
 

Cons

"The reporting and dashboards of 3CX could be improved."
"Having a video call would be a nice idea."
"It would be really good to have an expanded range of VoIP handset hardware to include more Cisco phones."
"Message management in 3CX Live Chat is a little tricky."
"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."
"Its features for scheduling and generating reports need improvement."
"It needs the option for the CS rep to stop recording when a credit card number is recited by the customer."
"Support could be better, especially when you have an emergency and need assistance."
"The system's stability could use an upgrade, it has a tendency to glitch sometimes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is in the middle range compared to other solutions. There are different license options available. For example, there is a professional version and an enterprise version, and with the enterprise version, you have the ability to modify the dashboards. You can purchase a license at many different time frame increments, such as monthly, yearly, or two years."
"The price of the solution has been reasonable. We have not had any problems or complaints with the licensing model. We have not reached a point where we need to upgrade. We have all the correct channels."
"There is no add-on costing on the standard fees."
"We have purchased an annual license to use 3CX Live Chat. There are different options available, you can pay monthly or yearly. I am completely satisfied with the pricing of 3CX Live Chat, it is cheaper than competitors and it is a better solution."
"Switching from POTS or PRI to SIP Trunk save the customer real costs. ROI is seen in less than a year."
"We used a yearly license depending on the customer's requirements, and the customers did not complain about the pricing."
"The price of the solution is reasonable. There are a few license options and we are using an enterprise license."
"3CX sells an annual subscription, but we usually split it out monthly for clients, so they don't see an annual bill for the 3CX licensing, it's just part of their monthly phone bill. As they're paying us for carrier service anyway, we just roll it all together. Your standard phone service would be an additional cost, you either need to maintain a local carrier with POTS lines or PRI or a SIP, or you have to go with a cloud-based SIP."
