"Review of our collaboration with 8x8 IVR Services"
What do you like best about 8x8 Contact Center?

We’ve been collaborating with 8x8 for over two years, and our experience has been consistently excellent. Over the past year, we’ve deepened this collaboration with several key initiatives, including script optimization, international expansion, and integration projects.

Key highlights of our partnership include:

- A full review and upgrade of our existing IVR scripts,

- Expansion of our voice services into the APAC region, with new numbers managed directly by 8x8,

- A successful integration project in June 2025 to streamline data flows between Salesforce and 8x8.

What really stands out in working with 8x8 is not only their responsive and efficient support team, but also the user-friendliness of their tools and interfaces:

- Excellent customer support: the teams are responsive, available, and proactive.

- Ease of use: listening to voice messages, tracking operational activity, and using the analytics platform are all intuitive and efficient.

- Reliable follow-up: projects are well-managed and aligned with our objectives.

We also appreciate their strong project follow-up and their ability to understand and adapt to our needs. As we move into the next phase of continuous improvement, we’re confident in 8x8’s ability to keep supporting our teams and contributing to our service excellence.

In short, 8x8 is a solid, proactive, and user-oriented partner that we fully trust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8x8 Contact Center?

That said, some aspects could be improved:

- The configuration process is difficult to handle independently. Without support, it can be challenging to make changes or set up new flows (ex. reducing inbound queues without toubling the service for agents)

- There are occasionally subtleties in terminology or script behaviors that are not easy to grasp without expert guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Helpful and Easy to Use"
What do you like best about 8x8 Contact Center?

The most helpful aspect has been the ease of use across our small insurance team. Whether on PC or Mac, the platform works seamlessly, and the ease of implementation made the transition simple from the start. It has all the features we need without being overwhelming, which allows our five person team to stay connected and serve clients effectively. For us, the biggest upsides are reliability and customer support. We’ve used 8x8 for over a year and haven’t had a single issue that required troubleshooting. The system is flexible, integrates smoothly with our workflow, and supports remote use without any issues. The frequency of use depends on the day for our office... but it hasn't failed us yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8x8 Contact Center?

Honestly, we haven’t found much that is unhelpful. The system has been intuitive, and any updates or adjustments haven't effected us. For a small company like ours, the setup and ease of integration were easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Herts Help"
What do you like best about 8x8 Contact Center?

We've been using 8x8 for our business phone system, and it's been working really well. The call quality is clear, and it's easy to use on our computers.

The built-in analytics are a big plus, helping us track performance and improve how we handle calls. Support has also been helpful whenever we've had questions.

Overall, a solid and reliable service that we’d recommend to other businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8x8 Contact Center?

We've found 8x8 to be a solid solution for our business phone needs. Call quality is reliable, and the system is generally easy to use. The built-in analytics provide valuable insights into call performance, which is a big plus.

However, there are a few areas that could be improved. The analytics formulas can be a bit tricky to understand at first, and it would be helpful to have an easier way to track agent activity on a daily basis. Some of the charts could also be clearer and more intuitive to read.

Additionally, the screen pop-up feature doesn’t always work as expected, which can slow things down for our team.

Overall, 8x8 is a good platform, but with a few tweaks to usability and reporting, it could be even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about 8x8 Contact Center?

While 8x8 Contact Center offers a lot of great features, there are a few areas where users sometimes express frustration. One common criticism is the learning curve—getting fully familiar with the platform can take some time, especially if you're new to cloud-based contact center solutions. Also, some users have mentioned that the interface, while comprehensive, can feel a bit cluttered or overwhelming when trying to access certain features quickly.

Another aspect that’s occasionally pointed out is the occasional difficulty with call quality, particularly in high-volume or complex configurations. Though this varies from user to user, some have experienced issues with connectivity or call clarity.

That said, these issues can often be addressed with proper setup and training, and many users find that the pros outweigh these cons once they get everything dialed in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
