I can talk to my colleagues from anywhere.""3CX is a reliable solution.""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.

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.""The analytics need to have a granular depth on how the customer details and the data sends information through this medium.""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.""It could be better in terms of providing more options for call recording.""Reporting and integration are the main challenges, which are at the mid-level or in the enterprise depending on the system that we choose.""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."
