If they want it as the stand alone, I would recommend it all day every day. If they want to integrate with Salesforce, I'd tell them to think about it, and not want anything overly complicated. It just really sucks to always be behind the curve of everyone else on the same platform. I heard this same issue voiced to at the conference in COsta Mesa, and it was said that Salesforce will always be at minimum 6 months behind on features. Also, skill based routing needs work. If there is anticipation of the call transferring to a new agent, skills don't strip. So if a Customer Service rep gets a call for sales, they can't transfer the call without holding on to the skills applied to the call already, which no one in Sales would have. We had to build a custom script to make it work.

  • Sorting A-Z for some call statistics.
  • Schedule groups/schedules need to be improved so we can manage them better.
  • Filter clearing.
  • When you're in Architect, and you've scrolled to the right, and you click on a box, it moves the screen all the way back to the left.
  • Make a way to hide the box on the right in Architect so you can view the whole call flow.

Everything is very good. It is very useful, friendly to users and it makes our work easier than what we expected. I think that I don't need any help from someone on how to use Genesys coz basically they will directly feed it to you without any hassle on using it.

There seem to be so many pages and options for support - but none of them are very seamless and some are very hard to maneuver or manage. I would like to learn more about the product features and tutorials etc. - but have had a hard time finding appropriate content.

I have taken the preparatory course for Genesys Cloud Certification. I must say that it is a good training for administrators and analysts. The bibliography is very clear and is easy to identify the topics, which are conveniently separated. It is, in my opinion, mandatory for those who want to exercise the position of Genesys Cloud platform administrators.

The support engineer that I partnered with during the implementation was exceptional. Every element of the process was done together and the end result of the efforts to grow the knowledge to be able to hand over at the end enabled a pretty smooth transition.

Altitude uCI offers some CRM capabilities that Genesys Cloud does not. It offers the option to store multi-dimensional interaction outcomes and presents them in reports. Altitude uCI agent scripts can be more elaborate than Genesys Could ones, and its reports are fully customizable. While Genesys Cloud is moving toward that direction, it still doesn't offer the level of customizability Altitude Xperience does.

Genesys Cloud CX wins hands down for all the interaction support and the multitude of interaction types. Switching from RingCentral to Cloud Cx was an obvious choice in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. We had better day-to-day operational support and guidance. That was really a game changer for us since we implemented it.

Professional services are definitely much more experienced than the support teams, and the price for their services is very fair. I wish that the support team could help answer simple questions about work that the PSS team does, however, so that we do not have to use our SOW for simple Q&A emails.

Return on Investment
Altitude Software
  • Reliable prediction improves productivity
  • Multichannel integration offers an all-in-one solution
  • Offers its own custom-made PBX solution that is more reasonably priced than standalone PBX solutions
  • Can work with existing corporate PBXs (Cisco, Alcatel, Avaya)

Genesys
  • The ROI has been difficult to prove as the data provided with CX2 is pretty minimal.
  • The benefit and detriment are it has to integrate with other providers like SuccessKPI in order to get detailed information and not an all-in-one solution.
