Considered Both Products
GoTo Connect
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo Connect was more complete and affordable than Zoom for what we needed. Much more affordable than teams, some features were sacrificed, but the overall experience is better in my opinion.
Chose GoTo Connect
As I mentioned, the system has given us the freedom to make changes without depending on the provider. It has also given us options we couldn't imagine being possible in a telephone system. The previous system was too controlled by the provider and didn't show us any reports …
Chose GoTo Connect
I have not managed other phone systems before and have not used phones as a large part of positions that I have had
Chose GoTo Connect
Mounds above any of the compitition. They not only beat them on price but again the customer service part in even winning the bid for us was amazing. They truley went far above any other vendor.
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo works as expected, unlike other VOIP providers that often have unfriendly user interfaces and products that don't function as intended.
Chose GoTo Connect
Honestly, we still need to use LogMeIn Rescue because of differences in use cases, and GoTo Meetings leaves a lot to be desired if you are trying to demonstrate how to use different features of Windows or Apple products.
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo Connect's pricing is VERY competitive, and, in my opinion, their customer service is MUCH better than Zoom's. Easy to understand their tech support agents' English, and most of their support folks are VERY well trained. You don't typically have to go into "Tier2" or …
Chose GoTo Connect
Avaya IP office was for us a complicated and inflexible on-prem solution. It could be made to do a great many things similar to GoTo, however it was not flexible and scalable in the same way as GoTo, which is to be expected of a cloud solution. In particular, as we aimed to …
Chose GoTo Connect
I think Resolve is easy to navigate and features are constantly being added. It is also very affordable. Easy setup and installation on endpoints with the ability to look at the system without remoting in to pull information. You can easily see where there a security gaps and …
Chose GoTo Connect
It was a touch cheaper, but Goto seemed to provide better value, better support, and seemed easier from a user perspective.
Chose GoTo Connect
I gave RingCentral a chance and nearly switched, but, in my opinion, their platform was terrible and their customer service worse. I understood how they were able to offer such a cheap price. They also claimed they could switch us over seamlessly, but I doubt it highly.
Chose GoTo Connect
The faxes all come to an app that we can download and print the faxes. We have been using RingCentral before we switched to GoTo. We still have RingCentral because it is easy to download and see faxes in their app. I do find having faxes emailed is easy, but not everyone has …
Chose GoTo Connect
We went with GoTo Connect because Mitel was removing its offering of on -premises PBX and forcing users to switch to their cloud offerings. This did not sit well with us which had us looking for alternatives. We met with many vendors and GoTo was the one that made the best …
Chose GoTo Connect
User friendly PBX interface. The above products have a more complex and less intuitive interface design. Pricing is also a big factor, as other products can cost more compared with what GoTo offers. In addition, the access to customer support and the quality of support …
Chose GoTo Connect
We looked at several leading phone systems, ultimately choosing GoTo Connect for functionality we thought met our needs. We ultimately thought the reception console was the best one we saw and the admin screens seemed easy to navigate. In addition, their pricing was so …
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo has been a far superior system to both Avaya and Mitel - from available features to ease of administartion.
Chose GoTo Connect
I would say rank GoTo in this order from my list above

Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo Connect did not have the same functionality of Teams. Teams has better Meeting rooms
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo Connect is ranked at the top of the market options. Surely the best option for small and medium size companies accross the Americas region
Chose GoTo Connect
I’d recommend GoTo Connect, if you’re looking for a reliable, all-in-one communication tool. It’s user-friendly, comes with great support, and works well for teams of all sizes.
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo Connect serves the needs of medium-sized organizations like ours better than MS Teams. Its User Interface and call connectivity feel better than that of MS Teams. GoTo Connect was a better fit for our specific business needs, offering the right combination of telephony …
Chose GoTo Connect
GoTo Connect came from an old system called Jive. The online PBX is one of the best I have used due to is ease of setup and configuration. GoTo Connect is a setup above the rest in this aspect.
Chose GoTo Connect
Everything we need is in one system and have no connection issues and easy to access through phone and computer
Chose GoTo Connect
I just discovered the GoTo Connect here in my current company, I have been using other platform before, but this app is just right for me and in my remote set up job. Since then, I never used other platform since it has features that I really like, such as recordings, …
Chose GoTo Connect
We prefer GoTo to TeamViewer. Teamviewer had a good recording feature, but that was the only advantage.
LivePerson Conversational Cloud
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
I have used Sugar CRM and I would not go back to using Sugar since I have had a taste of what Tenfold is like. It makes my job easier with follow up dates and tasks, it gets my connection rate higher with local presence, and allows me to keep track of my calls and contacts with …
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
3CX is reliable. But Tenfold is more advanced. It has more features and resources that a sales team needs to be effective.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
I've used other tools that are slow and don't log the information to SFDC correctly.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
Simple, fast, effective. Honestly I haven't even looked at other systems. No need to.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
Click to Dial.. is simply priceless for me
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
Currently, we still use RingCentral and that is our go to for handling our phones. I don't think the products are an exact match up but we think the reporting on RingCentral is superior to Tenfold.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
We chose Tenfold because of the ability to integrate with Salesforce and the overall ease of use and great value.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
Genesys is very limited with its options. For instance, if we want to make a sale, then we chat with the customer and after we try our sales pitch and the customer wants to make a purchase, we then have to call the customer to complete the sale. With LivePerson, we can send out …
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
We selected LivePerson LiveEngage, in large part, for the Analytics Builder, which has the ability fully manipulate the reporting data and build custom reports and dashboards rather than picking from prebuilt dashboards. Another benefit was the Design Studio that makes it easy …
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
This was a cheaper alternative that we looked at originally and decided that we were going to pass. I can't say a TON about it but the gamification and the streamlined UI of the main reports page definitely aided our decision to use tenfold instead. We're paying a little more …
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
I haven't ever used another product like Tenfold so I wouldn't know what to say other than Tenfold is great! It is easy to use, it always works, and I typically never have any problems with the system not doing what I want it to do for me. It's a great product!
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
I haven't used any other programs outside of Tenfold and to be quite honest - why would I go somewhere else. The service that Tenfold has offered has been flawless.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
I have not used any other products like Tenfold.
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
I've tried the CTI of a couple of phone systems that were very lackluster. Tenfold costs a little more than the often included integrations, but is the only one that seems to not make it a hassle to do so. I don't do much on the day to day sales anymore, but always add notes to …
Chose LivePerson Conversational Cloud
In comparison with others, LiveEngage was better at meeting our requirements, they were able to pretty much listen to our needs and have one of their sales manager craft the best solutions to what we needed. I felt more comfortable and the support received, It gave me more …

I would give it a 10 out of 10 rating just because of the service and easiness it has offered us, which made our work effortless and stress-free. I do recall an instance where one of our clients' medical conditions suddenly deteriorated while he was traveling overseas. The doctors there could not understand his situation at that time. He asked them to connect with our team, and our team guided them with his medical records, and his life was saved

Pros
  • GoTo Connect is a much more cost-effective solution rather than separate phone lines and video conferencing tools.
  • I conduct daily team meetings and project brainstorming sessions using video conferencing using GoTo Connect.
  • It integrates smoothly with our regularly used tools like Google Drive and has become very easy to share the documents we use.

  • The sales reps were very friendly and responsive. If I ever had any questions about our account, pricing, etc., the sales team would respond to my e-mails and phone calls within minutes. They even directed my technical questions to their support staff when it was appropriate. There were several times I asked the sales team technical questions and they always connected with the right support technician.
  • The tech support was very knowledgeable and quick to respond. Any time I had a problem they always had a solution and it was quick to implement.
  • The software performed as expected. The popups worked most of the time and performance was never laggy.

Cons
  • Making a dedicated button for "mute all" (other than yourself) for when someone "walks off before they mute"/has to quickly leave their computer....and FORGOT to Mute. Particularly when dogs are barking when someone working from home has a visitor at the door
  • I'd like to see some of the functionality from GoTo Webinar enabled for GoTo Connect: see who's "actively watching" vs has their computer screen on another application

  • Outbound Calls made by Tenfold get automatically logged into Salesforce as their own individual tasks (as OBC (for Outbound Call)), however, these Tasks cannot be titled from Tenfold (e.g. "Following up on a proposal"). Similarly calls using Tenfold always creates a new task, making tasks previously created (e.g. "Call to make first contact"), either act as (mostly irrelevant) placeholders, or tasks that still require editing to make call notes, (defeating the value of the Tenfold on-call, note-taking feature).
  • When notes are entered into Tenfold, they can be instantly logged into the notes field of the Salesforce Task, however, if the note is longer than the 'Notes' field, this gets transferred to the 'Comments' section of the Task, with no indication that this is where it went. As such call notes can occasionally appear to have not been taken, have gone missing, or just take longer to find.
  • Occasionally 'click-to-dial' does not work on all numbers you might find in a browser window, and at times the Chrome Extension needs to be reset to get things up and running.
  • Tenfold's app doesn't automatically connect the call/task at the Opportunity level within Salesforce, which is where we do the majority of our activity. Instead it requires an extra step on every call.

They are knocking it out of the park on all fronts. I love the service and support I am receiving and have no complaints. If they raised their prices substantially I would reconsider but I don't think that will happen anytime soon. They would have to mess up something consistently moving forward to make me want to move

LivePerson has been a great tool for our company and everything is customized. We can customize everything from the canned responses, operator surveys, and customer surveys. We receive a lot of positive information from our customers; and to be able to provide technical support of the website as well as status information for already placed orders is awesome

Usability
Overall, it's a decent product for the price. It has the basic features our company needed when it was brand new and was not overly difficult to set up. As we've grown, it's become increasingly difficult to build out the features we want to implement within the PBX, and customer support can be less than helpful. Many of the more advanced features (dial plans, queues, etc.) take a lot of research to understand how to implement. Some of the features we paid for weren't even available when we were attempting to set them up.

Reliability and Availability
I have never experienced or heard of unplanned outages when it comes to GoTo Connect. Most of the time the unplanned outage is always local power at a site or internet service provider having an unplanned outage. GoTo's service has never failed any of our orgs yet that I know of.

Performance
There is no lag in phone calls. There is no background noise or static/fuzz. Calls are crystal clear. With other dialers and phone systems, I have experienced delays between dialogue or delays with the caller picking up the phone and then being able to hear you. We do not experience this with Go To Connect.

Support Rating
Support used to be great when it was Jive support out of Utah. Now that they've offshored support it can be difficult to get a response. Our most common issues are least cost routing, and we run into support pushing back in stead of just figuring out which upstream carrier is having an issue like they used to. We often have to get our account manager involved, who is pretty strong.

Online Training
The training videos could be more in-depth. This would help our user base so that they can feel impowered to look up information that they need without having to ask our admins every time they have a question about the system. Online training videos are also inferior to an actual person explaining systems.

Implementation Rating
The biggest challenge from implementation was deconstructing the mess that was our old system's config. After doing so, I believe there were primarily some methods that have worked better in the long run to implement up front, such as separating menus into separate dial plans for simpler updates, routing/re-routing.

I have nothing personal against Broadvoice and found their team pleasant to work with. The greatest difference has been the administrative portals. Where Broadvoice was confusing and I still hadn't really been able to figure it out over a period of years past some basic functions, I still had to call to get support just to provision or update phones. With GoTo, I had a functional understanding within a week and a couple years in, it is smooth sailing and no angst when needing to update or troubleshoot an issue and I have access to everything without a phone call. It is true freedom to meet my company's needs.

We selected LivePerson LiveEngage, in large part, for the Analytics Builder, which has the ability fully manipulate the reporting data and build custom reports and dashboards rather than picking from prebuilt dashboards. Another benefit was the Design Studio that makes it easy and intuitive to build and change the graphical design of the chat invitations.

Scalability
Its not readily apparent to me, other than cost, where you would run into any issues with larger scale deployments. When we went live on the product, the Jive team was always willing to do mass updates for us on our extensions, users, etc. in the system, so we didn't have to do too much manual one-by-one updates.

Return on Investment
  • We stopped losing calls due to poor routing or not being able to make them.
  • It has helped us to be able to answer calls at any time or place, even outside of company hours.
  • We have the possibility to access these conversations from our CRM system.

  • When we moved over to Salesforce, it was the natural choice to upgrade the phone system used company-wide. I was not a part of the decision-making process, nor do I see any numbers - but from my department, it has made a positive impact on the everyday functions we are supposed to perform.
