8x8 Contact Center
8x8 Contact Center has made my Care Center run much more efficiently. It is a move that I wish we had made many years ago. There have not been any days that we have had a disruption in service and the quality of the calls are always perfect.

Cons
8x8 Contact Center
- Post-sale support through the online ticket system is painfully slow.
- It's hard to get in contact with people for license help and understanding why phone numbers are not properly distributed in your account. i.e. Our account has 48 free local numbers and we had to purchase 120 additional numbers. But for some reason only 25 of the 48 free numbers are being utilized, and there's no good way in the Admin UI to see which numbers are which, or reallocate paid numbers into those 'free' slots.
- The system has bugs which pop up from time to time such as when a user uses the 'Do Not Disturb' option in their app or on their phone - it does not always turn off on the back-end of the system, even though the phone or app shows the user as available. This causes inbound phone calls to be routed directly to Voicemail, and the only notice the user has is when someone reaches out by other means to say "Why is your phone going directly to voicemail?" - which initiates a service ticket for IT who cannot see this in the admin center. And unless 'flipping' DND on then off again fixes it, it requires a ticket with 8x8 which is, as mentioned before, slow.

- WFM has been a missing component, however that is slated to launch in Q2 of 2022
- The mobile application has taken longer than expected for general release
- UCaaS functionality would be a great addition

The system is flexible, adaptable and easy to use and research. Once again the reporting is fantastic and gives up the information we need to be successful and even make changes or tweaks. The 8x8 Contact Center team is there to assist with questions when needed or to help get through an issue. Charlie Knutson is the best!!

It is always on. The only outage to date that I have experienced was with an upstream telco provider. The inbound leg telco was hit by a DDOS attack which led to delays in routing calls to the platform. This was not the fault of the Bright Pattern platform but the telco provider.

The initial live support person seems to be just collecting information and is outsourced. Sometimes it is difficult to communicate with them, but going through this process gets me to the right person and having my support ticket opened in order. It's usually very smooth thereafter.

The support received from Bright Pattern is great, they are always willing to provide support assistance with queries and are very knowledgeable on the product, the back end developers always adding new features and functionality, and these are always explained in detail so end-users and partners are able to make full use of these developments.

In-person and virtual training was great, but Bright Pattern could use some online training videos similar to other platforms. I would welcome online training videos to keep the steady flow of new agents up to date. Admin training is one of the largest areas that need video. The static documentation is great. It is pretty easy to follow and configure your contact center as you progress through each step. The documentation is available online on an easy to use knowledgebase or wiki style site. You do not need a user account to access the help docs, meaning that users at any level can freely access the materials to learn about the platform.

Online training is documentation based only. It is thorough and step by step, but no videos.

I have done a few of these now for a multiple number of our contact centers. It has been really smooth. It is a fun platform to work with. I enjoy building new ideas within the scenario builder. Because I enjoy it, I am not afraid to try something new and innovative.

Vonage was priced right on the install but escalated as the year went on and by the end of the second year, they had lost the edge they had over many other companies and forced a change by me. We had to work with a single account manager and that was hard when things went wrong on the system. The downtime was minimal with them also.

Bright Pattern prides itself on providing out-of-the-box functionality. Unlike many of the other platforms listed, there is no need to subscribe to additional options for increased feature functionality nor is there a need to implement additional plugins to get to a desired level of operability. Much of what is needed to build a world-class contact center platform is a part of the solution on day one.

- We were able to automate features such as information change requests and W-2 reprint requests which cut down up to 4,000 agent interactions a day during the W-2 season.
- With training features and the ability to specify skills, new agents are able to jump in quickly and build up their level of support gradually as they become ready to handle more interactions at once.
