Likelihood to Recommend
Call centers where lots of calls come in per day are better suited for Cloud office. Small businesses or companies that don’t really make outgoing calls or receive a lot of incoming calls other than within the company would not really be suited for Avaya Cloud Office.

Cons
  • Avaya has very strong contact center offerings and more contact with our salesperson would be helpful, so we can explore the latest offerings
  • Although it's adequate a slightly more intuitive UI would be helpful
  • More integrated reporting at the end-user level.

Likelihood to Renew
Things change, business requirements change so when we come to renew we may explore other options, we might go all in on Teams or look at something different - we need something that allows us to increase and importantly decrease our licence count more flexably which Avaya / Ring Central don't allow.

Usability
There are few times that we have not been able to take advantage of the tool, but those moments are related to the bandwidth of each person in [their] home. Those who have low signal cannot access meetings on the platform smoothly.

Support Rating
The Customer Service and Representatives are always kind and willing to go the extra mile to get anything resolved. Yet, we have not really needed them after the initial set up since the product actually works and we have not really experienced any major issues.

We used Weave for less than two years. It didn't have any performance tracking capability, and it could not handle our call volume. Once the call volume reached a specific peak, incoming patient calls would automatically drop, which negatively impacted the organization. Thus, our decision to move forward with Avaya was solidified.

Having the ability to use Muli-Tenant and one single instance definitely made us stand out whenever prospects were seeking for a new UcaaS solution for their company. The fact that we can make extremely detailed scenarios easily within PBXware also makes Bicom Systems a solution of choice. Also the ability to fully brand every single product is something that prospects were seeking for and are satisfied today using Bicom Systems products. PBXware offers a range of flexible licensing options, including both perpetual and subscription licenses, which makes it easier for businesses to scale up or down as needed. 3CX only offers subscription-based licenses.

It fits us well being in multiple geographic areas and we can purchase local numbers or do a BYOD SBC setup

Return on Investment
  • Moving on cloud calling did save us on costs of managing on-prem infra
  • Since Avaya UCaaS has its own make phones and gateways it saves on support costs due to multiple vendors
  • It lacks many third party integrations available in MS teams, this makes making workflows difficult
Read full review
  • Integrating Bicom Systems to our offers has made it evolve over time, having hundreds of partners who use Bicom Systems solution all around France and French speaking countries
