Previously, I'd recommend 3cx to anyone looking for a PBX. Unfortunately, I no longer can, as they just don't care about their customers. I've not spoken to a single person who thinks the v20 GUI is... See more

The 3CX V18 backup can't be restored to V20 if you don't set a 'system owner' To make matters ridiculous, V18 can't be activated to make the necessary modification, nor can the backup be restored... See more

As a reseller I stuck with 3cx even after they got hacked, even brought more new customers. Their reward? Canceling my partnership. i have moved on since to VitalPBX multi tenant instead of hosting each individual instance of 3cx and could not be happier.

Hello Steven. Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear about your experience. 3CX is indeed an advanced system, especially with our latest v20 release. We recommend working with a local 3CX Partner to help minimize issues and maximize the benefits of the 3CX phone system.

If you'd like, we can help you find a local Partner to give 3CX another try - just reach out to our Customer Service agents via Live Chat on our website.

In case you've decided to not use 3CX anymore - we wish you the best with whichever system you choose moving forward.

Very Very Bad

Honestly, 3CX is so old school. We need to write our custom code for anything and everything we need from 3CX :( it is so boring and wrong decision. Never go with 3CX. Go with Yeastar instead.

Hello Firmz. Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that 3CX hasn't met your expectations.

We always strive to keep up with industry needs. For instance, we recently released V20, which includes a new and easier Admin Console among other updates.

However, if you feel that Yeastar is a better fit for your needs, we wish you the best with your new system.

Fast response to customer facing website queries. Been using 3CX for about 4 years now and very happy with the UI/UX and Development builds and release's. Fitting our needs from the front end to the backend. We use in combo with VoipTools for reporting and pricing and licensings are on point. Our Managed 3CX Service provider is Clarity 3CX and always happy with the support response and addressing our needs. We also use the Call Flow Manager for which we have built custom call flows.

Very helpful person on the other end of the help chat. The user guide available online is not helpful if you are simply a non-technical employee of the company that has integrated this system, but the help chat person I just had was great.

Disgusting experience

Disgusting experience. Not user the friendly connection between WP plugin and chat when you have 2 accounts. I tried contact support and person on the other line looked like they had 10 other chats open because he asked me stupid questions to extend the time. Honestly, 5 minutes is okay, but 15 and still the same stupid nowhere-going question, so frustrating. So, I instal Tidio diferent chat. Simple it asked me for an email and didn't try to connect to this wp email. Support had a normal answer to my question not this idiotic time-consuming ''What is your problem?'' ''Could you clarify''.... what is not clear in the sentence. I like to connect my WP plugin with your 3x chat could you help me go through this process? At the beginning of the chat...

THX for the reply. You don't need to apologize. If you're sorry, just change it. And BTW you said you have a video on how to do it and right after ''we are not tech support'' If your video is too technical for your general support how can we use it or why do you have support that doesn't understand your own videos? Never mind, I'm glad I didn't start using 3CX chat only to find out this nonsense later when will be fully integrated into my company. I've never been unhappy when someone says sorry, I don't understand, but when someone talks to me without dignity, it's so frustrating.

Hello Jozef, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry about the challenges you've faced with our support and the WP Plugin.

For detailed guidance on configuring 3CX with WordPress, we do have a useful guide here: https://www.3cx.com/docs/manual/live-chat/#h.a3zcshfifwj2. For hands-on support, connecting with a local 3CX Partner could offer the technical expertise needed.

Please note, that our Live Chat team provides general assistance and doesn't cover technical support.

3CX were quick to respond and extremely helpful

3CX were quick to respond, explained clearly the answers to the questions I had - confirming in layman's terms what I wanted to know and gave me the knowledge I need to proceed with navigating the systems we will have to put in place.
