Get automated answers and walkthroughs

To get started with Otto, simply click the chat icon in the bottom right corner of any page. The chat window will open, and you have the option to either select from a list of our most common help topics, or simply enter a question for Otto to answer.

For the best results:

• Enter one specific question at a time.
• If trying to resolve an error message, enter the text of the message.
• Be specific about your query, but avoid entering account or user-specific info, such as a particular extension, phone, or case number, unless prompted.

Connect with Live 8x8 Support

When Otto can't provide the answers you need, it can connect you directly with 8x8 Technical Support for further assistance.

Note: Otto will initially connect all users to our frontline technical team. Customers who have a designated 8x8 Support contact or who contract 8x8 services through a wholesale reseller are recommended to seek live assistance through their prescribed channels rather than proceed to contact 8x8 Support from Otto.

1. When the Assistant asks if the answer provided was helpful, click No.
2. When the Assistant asks if you'd like to contact someone in 8x8 Support, click Yes.
3. When prompted, click on the option for how you'd like to connect with Support:
   • Connect to Live Agent - You'll be connected with 8x8 Chat Support. When the chat queue is busy, it may take several minutes to complete the connection, so please leave your browser tab open while waiting to connect. A case will also be auto-created detailing your history with the Virtual Assistant.
   • Get a Callback - When prompted, please enter your best callback phone number. A case will be auto-created detailing your history with the chatbot, and 8x8 Support will reach out at the phone number you entered to provide more help within 1 hour. Callbacks cannot be scheduled for a specific time, but you can chat back in to adjust your callback number.
