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

"With the reporting feature you can get all the incoming and outgoing call details."

"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."

"The most valuable features of 3CX include meetings, IVR, and the workflow personalization of the service desk activity."

"It’s straightforward to set up."

"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."

"Easy management console access through web browsers with a good interface to Outlook and multiple CRM systems."

"3CX is a reliable solution."

"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 analytics need to have a granular depth on how the customer details and the data sends information through this medium."

"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."

"Some customers want to integrate a CRM solution with 3CX, but it's not compatible."

"It could be better in terms of providing more options for call recording."

"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."

"It needs the option for the CS rep to stop recording when a credit card number is recited by the customer."

"Its features for scheduling and generating reports need improvement."

"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."

More 3CX Live Chat cons

"The system's stability could use an upgrade, it has a tendency to glitch sometimes."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"There aren't any additional costs. With the license I purchased, I have all features that I need. I don't have to buy an add-on or another 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."

"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."

"The price of the solution is reasonable. There are a few license options and we are using an enterprise license."

"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."

"Switching from POTS or PRI to SIP Trunk save the customer real costs. ROI is seen in less than a year."

"There is no add-on costing on the standard fees."
