We use Fuze Voice as the main platform of communications, either text or voice, between employees and the final costumer.
Pros
It allows you to choose any European or world number to communicate with.
The prices are for all devices and you can log in using their app or the web.
Good call quality especially in open areas.
The customise options are very important because it helps personalise the use.
Cons
Video calls are good but need to be higher quality and have more options on sharing.
Visually it's okay, but some icons [look like] children with no experience can use them, especially for specific options.
Integration with other browsers as there is with Chrome.
Likelihood to Recommend
For offices with an international work agenda, Fuze Voice fits perfectly, especially for business people. It may not be so good for personal use, as the prices are better for companies.
We implemented Fuze to replace our aging (and expensive) in-house phone system. The voice and ACD components have been absolutely fantastic. We have since implemented for customers of ours as well with nothing but good reviews.
Pros
Voice Calls - soft phone has been able to replace my desk phone while still maintaining all the functionality that I had before and then some.
Portability - I run this frequently from my iPhone when I need to contact folks and need their number or if I just need to join a meeting while I’m the road and then easily transition to my softphone once I’m at my computer.
Portability 2 - I can run this from home when I’m working remote with no issues.
Sound quality is very good!
Cons
We tried the Fuze conferencing but it was just too difficult for external users to easily get connected correctly. We ultimately moved to Zoom which is very simple for people to understand and use even if they have never used it before.
I have no other complaints.
Likelihood to Recommend
Voice calling and ACD are great uses. I would not at this time be able to recommend the conferencing piece.
