A good and decent meeting platform that stores recordings of meetings
We use Zoho Meeting for booking meetings and demo calls for product review updates The most valuable feature of Zoho Meeting is how it stores recordings and how we can get those recordings by order. It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The ease of deployment and web interface to manage the phone system is without parallel, the phone system can be deployed within hours, and the cost saving to the client can be up to 80% compared to other systems with the same features."
"Integrated Web Meeting and Video Conferencing with mobile app is a big sales feature."
"3CX is easy to use. It's pretty a much regular PBX system. It is quite easy to configure aspects of it, and it has a good soft client."
"3CX Live Chat works amazing and having a good connection will allow the best experience while using the solution."
"3CX has strong reporting and management features; you can manage the capabilities of a call center with queues and timers, and it is a complete solution."
"It's a VOIP PBX based on Windows, it runs rock solid, and is easy to setup and manage."
"The call queue and reporting systems are robust compared to what you have to pay to get the same level of functionality with a competing system."
"I can safely say that there is nothing that beats the ease of deployment, functionality and stability of 3CX."

Cons

"The analytics need to have a granular depth on how the customer details and the data sends information through this medium."
"We had sync issues between the mobile clients and the desktop phones which needed vigorous testing and fault finding."
"Bluetooth audio support for 3CX IOS app is needed."
"It would be great if the web meeting functionality could be extended to enable users to call standards-based video conferencing systems."
"For firewall: Its advice is to disable the firewall to allow voice to pass through the network, but there are instants when you don't disable the firewall for security reasons that NAC port comes in."
"Yes, we have had many problems with this product, but step-by-step, they fix them, because this is a new product."
"The solution was simple to install, but the configuration was not as simple. The full installation process took a few days."

"It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting video call."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution has been reasonable. We have not had any problems or complaints with the licensing model. We have not reached a point where we need to upgrade. We have all the correct channels."
"The price of the solution is in the middle range compared to other solutions. There are different license options available. For example, there is a professional version and an enterprise version, and with the enterprise version, you have the ability to modify the dashboards. You can purchase a license at many different time frame increments, such as monthly, yearly, or two years."
"The price of the solution is reasonable. There are a few license options and we are using an enterprise license."
"3CX sells an annual subscription, but we usually split it out monthly for clients, so they don't see an annual bill for the 3CX licensing, it's just part of their monthly phone bill. As they're paying us for carrier service anyway, we just roll it all together. Your standard phone service would be an additional cost, you either need to maintain a local carrier with POTS lines or PRI or a SIP, or you have to go with a cloud-based SIP."
"There is no add-on costing on the standard fees."
"There aren't any additional costs. With the license I purchased, I have all features that I need. I don't have to buy an add-on or another license."
"We have purchased an annual license to use 3CX Live Chat. There are different options available, you can pay monthly or yearly. I am completely satisfied with the pricing of 3CX Live Chat, it is cheaper than competitors and it is a better solution."
"Switching from POTS or PRI to SIP Trunk save the customer real costs. ROI is seen in less than a year."
"In India, Professional Zoho Meeting for up to 10 participants costs INR 125 per month, and for up to 250 participants, it costs INR 750 per month if billed annually."
"Compared to other solutions, the price is not the lowest, but I can say it's competitive. My organization pays for a yearly license for Zoho."
"The product is not costly like other applications."
