Describe the project or task Pax8 helped with:

Our Pax8 team is continually interested in our success. They not only helped us build the suite of products we sell to our customers, they help with sales, training, implementation, and anything else needed to get a new offering off the ground. I can count on them being there whenever we need them for questions, concerns, or support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pax8?

Pax8's best asset is that they genuinely care for their partners. They could just try to sell everything they offer, but they seek to understand what you are trying to accomplish and build the stack around that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pax8?

Realistically, we don't have any significant dislikes around Pax8. You can certainly feel some growing pains from time to time, but we know that growth is to help us in the future further, so it is worth any growing pains we go through with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would highly recommend using Pax8 for anything cloud. I would also recommend all the other value-added services they offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pax8 solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pax8 solves several problems for us. First, they offer cloud products to us in an easy-to-consume format. They also solve billing issues that are common with other distributors.

In addition to products offered, they have built our training, peer groups, and enhanced support offerings available when we need them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Pax8?

The catalog is simple to use to find what we need. If there are software titles that we're not sure about, we have a direct account team we can connect to that are subject matter experts in their particular vertical to help us make the right software choices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pax8?

Sometimes the account team can get stuck in a repetitive cycle on certain titles that we're either not ready to use or don't have. specific need yet. Microsoft licensing can still be confusing to determine exactly what we need, which isn't specifically a Pax8 problem, but it is something that I wish they would help make easier.

Compared to other companies that offer a similar service, Pax8 is worth checking out. There are some titles that we choose to spend more with Pax 8 that will save us time and effort further upstream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pax8 solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pax8 helps us simplify our channel software procurement and spending by creating a simple way to see what is available, purchase the licenses our customers need, and keep them associated with customers end-to-end.

There are two or three vendors that Pax8 has that make it extremely difficult to get support directly from the vendor. This can be challenging if there are urgent support situations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Pax8 helped with:

Multiple clients who require MS 365 license changes, updates, and removal. I'm in the application daily, researching information for clients, as well as making changes that show up in their 365 tenant almost immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pax8?

Love how quick the response time is between Pax8 and Microsoft. The navigation within the site is super easy and easy to read, easy to work. Searching is intuitive, doesn't leave you frustrated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pax8?

Seems like there's just way too much happening on the splash page. If we can reduce that (as a default setting), and then allow the user to customize, I think that would work better, and not feel overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pax8:

Do these reviews so that G2 can always improve on their products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pax8 solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not really problems per say, just making license purchases and changes on behalf of our clients. The catalog is pretty extensive (and impressive), so it's my first go-to for any applications clients are inquiring about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Pax8 helped with:

Getting my Microsoft licensing squared away properly. We were in need of consolidating licensing and receiving the full benefits of our partnership with Microsoft, and Pax8 helped us to get that in place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pax8?

My rep got the resources I needed to assist with getting done what we needed to get done. With the right people on the call, we could get our clients' licensing squared away quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pax8?

There are maybe a few products that the licensing structure isn't perfect when purchasing through Pax8, but in these cases, the licensing structure is usually an issue with the vendor themselves and not Pax8. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pax8:

For the MSP world at least, there is no better licensing partner to work with. They are helpful, there when you need them, and always happy to do what it takes to assist with anything you bring to them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pax8 solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest problem we are solving with Pax8 is keeping track of our per client licensing within our PSA. Pax 8 makes it easy to sync that licensing to our agreements and bill our clients accurately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Pax8 helped with:

When we onboarded with Pax8 they provided Casey Weaver as our point of contact. Casey gave us the full treatment. Took a full catalog of our user base, their licenses, and what was needed to move them over. We knew everything we needed to know to get our customers moved over and Casey was an absolute delight in every step! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pax8?

I like that we can easily and efficiently assign licensing to our customers and very seldom do we have any hangups on getting things done. When we do see an issue, Pax8 and our account rep are quick to address the issue and get us back on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pax8?

There's nothing I could point to that we do not like. Sometimes when we have an issue that requires microsoft to step in directly, their support is less than adequate but this should not reflect on Pax8. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Pax8:

We found Pax8 through a sysadmin reddit thread and have been so incredibly happy! They are totally worth working with! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pax8 solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have clients that cycle through staff pretty regularly and we need to be able to easily move licenses around to add or remove capacity. The benefit of Pax8 is that we are easily able to do this with a few simple clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Pax8 helped with:

Since coming onboard in October of 2018 as a partner, the entire Pax8 team from top to bottom has been hugely valuable in all aspects of our business. From backend operations including syncs of products into client agreements, to professional services delivery, to pre-sales technical guidance, to learning sessions and webinars the Pax8 team has been an enormous asset to our team. Our account management team has been dedicated, knowledgable and highly responsive. I would refer any potential partner to work with Pax8 for their needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The responsiveness of our Account management team, the ease of operations in the online portal and knowledge and expertise of the technical resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
