Switch to an enterprise Cisco system — priced right (SIP from $975, up to 79% off), set up, run, and managed for you. Save thousands, and never lose a live person to a ticket queue again.
Save up to 79% on enterprise Cisco phone systems — SIP systems now start at $975.
The side-by-side comparison 8x8 doesn’t want you to see.
Real reviews from real businesses. We didn’t write these — 8x8’s own customers did.
Every pain point 8x8 creates, we’ve built the opposite solution.
Auto-renewing contracts you can’t escape. Cancel early and they charge the full remainder to your card. You can’t even downgrade users mid-term.
Buy your system once. No contracts to sign, no auto-renewals, no cancellation hoops. Want to stop? Unplug it. Done.
A phone company that makes it nearly impossible to reach a live person. Tickets get flagged endlessly between teams. No one can actually solve anything.
Call us and a Certified Network Specialist who knows your system by name picks up — and handles setup, moves, adds, and changes for you. No team-to-team runaround.
$24/user/month adds up fast. A 20-person team spends $480/month — $28,800 over 5 years — and never owns a thing. Add a user? Your bill goes up forever.
Pay once for the hardware and system. SIP trunking runs ~$145/month for HD audio calling. Add a phone? One-time cost, no monthly increase. SIP systems start at just $975 — up to 79% off.
Every call goes through the internet. When your connection hiccups, so do your calls. When 8x8’s cloud goes down, ALL your locations go down simultaneously.
Internal calls stay on your local network — no internet required. Only external calls use your connection. Crystal-clear quality guaranteed.
Stop paying and you lose everything — your phone numbers, call history, system configuration. You’re just a tenant on 8x8’s platform.
The PBX sits in your office and the phones are on your desks — no per-user rent to a cloud platform, which is exactly why it’s priced right. And because it’s your system, a Certified Network Specialist can manage it for you end to end.
The math doesn’t lie. Here’s what 20 users actually costs over 5 years — and SIP systems now start at $975, up to 79% off.
That’s enough to hire an employee for 6 months or upgrade your entire office infrastructure.
How every major provider stacks up
Real businesses. Real results. Real people picking up the phone.
We’re not for everyone. Here are a few scenarios where 8x8 might actually make more sense.
8x8 Meet is built into their platform with recording, screen sharing, and up to 500 participants. VPE focuses on voice — for video, our customers use Zoom or Teams.
8x8 has a strong global presence with included international calling to 48 countries. If you make heavy international calls daily, their bundled plans may be more cost-effective.
8x8 includes team chat and messaging within their platform. VPE focuses on voice communication — most of our customers already use Slack or Teams for messaging.
For organizations with 1,000+ users across many global offices, 8x8’s cloud scale may be a better fit. VPE is purpose-built for small and mid-sized businesses.
It’s easier than you think. Most businesses are up and running in under a week.
Tell us your team size, office setup, and what features matter most. We’ll send a custom quote within 24 hours.
