Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

8x8 Contact Center

  • Listed on G-Cloud 14 directly by 8x8 UK Limited (not a reseller) at £0.68 to £113.40 per user per month for 8x8 Contact Centre

Salesflare

  • Enterprise carries a five seat minimum, so its 99 dollar per user headline is really a 495 dollar monthly floor, and a three person team wanting the training and migration that tier includes still pays for five.
  • Lead enrichment credits are metered and Growth includes only five a month, so any prospecting workflow effectively requires Pro or a credit top-up, priced from 39 dollars for two hundred and fifty.
  • The automation depends on connected mailboxes and calendars, so deals worked over phone, WhatsApp or in person leave large gaps in the timeline the product is meant to fill.
  • Email workflows, permissions and custom dashboards are all withheld from the entry Growth tier, which means most teams that evaluate on the 29 dollar price actually buy at 49 dollars.
  • It is built for B2B pipelines with named accounts and has little to offer high-volume B2C sales, field service dispatch or any process that is not a small number of relationship-led opportunities.
