Researcher's Summary:

The product offers a seamless customer service experience with prompt query and issue resolution. Support people are always willing to help and solve complex and lengthy issues with total productivity and efficiency. With the ongoing pandemic, businesses can let their employees work from home with the same productivity and little or no extra effort. However, the implementation process is cumbersome and takes a long time or users run into issues during deployment. Some features such as call hold, caller ID, call transfer and others aren’t up to the mark and hinder the calling process significantly. Overall, the product is an ideal choice for small and medium businesses. But be sure to demo extensively before buying!
