help 8x8 FAQ

Can 8x8 replace both a business phone system and video-meeting software?

Yes. The 8x8 platform combines cloud calling, team messaging and video meetings, with contact-center products available separately for support and sales operations.

Can I keep my existing phone numbers when moving to 8x8?

8x8 supports number porting in many countries, subject to local carrier rules and number eligibility. The current carrier account information must match the port request to avoid rejection or delays.

Does 8x8 work with desk phones as well as mobile apps?

Yes. It supports approved desk phones from manufacturers such as Poly and Yealink, plus desktop and mobile applications for users who prefer a software phone.

How does 8x8 differ from Microsoft Teams Phone or RingCentral?

All three can provide cloud calling, but 8x8 emphasizes an integrated communications and contact-center portfolio with international calling options. Microsoft Teams Phone fits organizations already centered on Microsoft 365, while RingCentral offers its own broad UCaaS and contact-center ecosystem.
