"Not tech savvy andtech people are patient and fantastic. Cannot overemphasize the patient part"
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

Technical support. I have called numerous times which seemingly basic questions and tech support has spent hours on the phone with me responding to my satisfaction. Very pleased with technical support. I have had calls drop during a tech session and the tech ALWAYS reaches back out and stays with me until we find a solution.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

Hold times for assistance are too long for a tech savvy company. Hold times are also too long for when you want to add a service. I would prefer not to wait for tech service but waiting to spend money is just not an acceptable way to run a business.

What problems is GoTo Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am a basic user of jive - just want a phone that works consistently with limited features. I do not take advantage of any business solutions other than phone, fax and conference calls. I would consider doing more but it would need to be with technical support and initiated by Jive.

"Some limitations, but easy to configue and use"
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

Ease of set up and use through Admin dashboard. Support staff that are always pleasant and helpful.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

Limitations for a call center environment that handles many individual company phone numbers that need to be segregated. Logging in/out of individual queues instead of out of system.. not feasible for us. Call routing when agent busy and agent presence keep acting up. International dialing complications

What problems is GoTo Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having control over our own system, managing and changing plans as we see fit.

"Jive Phone System and Transfer"

Jive is a good quality phone system. It is easy to use and has good call clarity.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

Getting the phone set up was more difficult than it needed to be.

I had my phone lines split between three different resources. Being able to consolidate all of the lines through one company and gaining features have been a real asset.

"Good Small Business Value"
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

Support, sustainability, innovation, customer focus & responsiveness of the support team!!! The support call back is great

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

impressed by a company operations, innovation and quality, only to find that the answers to recruiting talent is a perception vs reality view. Reviews are great, however the Account Representation disappears once the sale is made. Are we not important after that? What are the new offerings? Things to consider? Integrations ? Options? We have no idea unless we stumble upon them.

communications. Benefits are the same

"Good phone system. Customer support could use work."
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

Phone selection is outstanding. Monthly rates are competitively priced and reasonable. Enjoyed working with Jason Stewart in sales.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

Calling Customer Support. They will assign a ticket number that you need to give to the actual techs. It would save time if the techs provided the ticket number so that you do not need a pen to write it down. The ticket system needs work.

What problems is GoTo Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Jive helps us communicate with our clients. It is imperative that phone and internet service never goes down, and so far it has not.

"Usually smooth running......."
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

For normal business, it's okay. Said my answer was too short so I added this.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

Portal can be confusing and not very user friendly. I've gotten to where I just automatically chat with reps. any time I need something done.

What problems is GoTo Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Setting up new phones is a complete hassle. Phones we were originally set up with are no longer, so we were sent two new phones. Directions don't work the same, so now calls are dropped, sent without going into voicemail. It should be a more user friendly system. HOWEVER, every time I used the chat tool, the reps were VERY helpful. I don't believe I've received help from anyone that wasn't able to help. GREAT customer support!

"Convenient and cost effective, but frustrating"
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

In the few of months I have been using GoToConect I love the convenience of having my work phone with me via the Andriod app and being able to flip a call quickly and silently to the softphone without the other party knowing. The flexibility and ability to set up how calls are handled is amazing and much easier to use that the previous system we had which cost 5 times as much.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

Although I like the Android app, it is very frustrating because it rings 30 seconds to a minute after the softphone and VOIP phone. It will often ring for a call after I have already answered the call on another device. I feel like if I were only using the App phone, I wold miss a lot of calls.

What problems is GoTo Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest problem that is solved by GoToConnect is the ease of setup and configuration for a mobile and distributed phone system,

"Good product, rough service"
What do you like best about GoTo Connect?

The product works and is great. Phone services are fine.

What do you dislike about GoTo Connect?

The sales and service team are not great. Takes weeks to get resolutions on something that took an hour to actually resolve. Sales closes the deal and then never responds ever again.

What problems is GoTo Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Phone services for our team
