But now, most of the issues we had between us, in the beginning, are resolved. I like the product and would definitely recommend it to users who want to adopt it.

I can receive business calls to my business number on my personal cell phone with the help of the IOS application. Thus allows me to leave my desk more frequently.

The most difficult part for us was the set-up process. It was a disaster. But the fault lies with both the parties. However, our company took almost three months to get everything settled down and start working.

This systems experience across the organization is bad despite using it to replace our physical phone lines. Its sound quality is awful and it crashes often.

Making international phone calls is possible as its app is great and helpful. You can interact in disparate formats as it has a phone service ad text chat option.

Terrible sound quality-too much noise in the background, the system crashes often, etc.

After using numerous PBX brands, I finally concluded that the simplest PBX with great performance that you can get is Digium Switchvox.

Simple to use, has a familiar interface, and simple to regulate and configure.

Limited advanced actions in the software’s IVR menu

It put our phone system online and lets you administer messages and calls from anyplace in the world.

It lets you to link to your phone online, ability to set up your out of office messages from your phone through your computer, forward, transfer and even park calls through the online app, ability to listen to your voicemail via the online app and see your corporation directory there too.

Staff are quite slow in adopting the online app, the system doesn’t always appear to have the power to keep private cell phone data, the online app is quite hard-some training is needed to understand the language in the system, how items are labelled, and the steps to accessing to, e.g., the staff directory
