    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.

    I think it works well for offices that have multiple locations. Being able to give each person and office their own extension makes it easier for colleagues to connect with each other, plus it's a costs savings for each of the offices

    Cons
    Avaya
    • 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.

    • We needed to link each of our team members' personal emails to the Zoom account so we have to filter VM notifications out of our personal accounts.
    • It'd be nice if you could set business hours through the webpage to include a lunch break so that you don't have to manually go in to edit.

    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.

    Zoom Phone has a very sleek design which makes it very easy to operate and use both in the setting up of and interacting in a meeting space. That being said, certain features can seem a bit crowded while trying to screen share or display video which somewhat defeats the purpose of the application as compared to a standard conference call.

    I have never contacted support directly. However, my rep with Enterprise Systems is excellent. Since joining Avaya, all inquiries and/or concerns have always been resolved within a reasonable amount of time. If it's a less complex issue, it is resolved in real time. I receive a response within 30 minutes or less. When he is out of the office, he always has a backup.

    I haven't had any sort of issues with Zoom as of yet to have to call Support. That right there makes me think it's a good product. Simple and easy to use. Nothing confusing or glitchy that would make me have to get in touch with them. Straightforward so I'm not trying to figure out a specific workflow.

    Apart from Cisco Webex Calling/app no other vendor offers their own phones hardware, gateways. We need to add other vendors like yealink, Poly, Audiocodes to complete the solution. This makes things very difficult from management perspective. As you have to hire a person who can manage a multivendor environment. Also, in case of outage, multiple bridge open and every vendor blame others. Cisco is costly so we gave a chance to Avaya UCaaS based on its history and reputation in Calling market.

    The main reason why we switched to Zoom Phone is because our VOIP system inexplicably went down for almost a month and no one could figure out what was wrong. Lumen was charging way more than Zoom Workplace, but could not get the system to work.

    Return on Investment
    Avaya
    • This made working from home possible, allowing me to take calls that I wouldn't be able to without having them forwarded by our communications department
    • It works with Teams, realizing when I'm on a conf call and automatically sets a status of away, preventing my phone from ringing, but allowing me to see the voicemail via text so that I can respond
    • If I step out of the office for a little bit, I can have my calls go directly to my cellphone to make sure I'm still available if needed
