Amazon Transcribe vs. RingCentral Contact Center vs. Supernormal

Amazon Transcribe can be an excellent tool for businesses where being able to convert speech or audio to text, in a searchable and reportable form, would be useful. For a call center (inbound or outbound), the ability to have a rich transcription of each call (and being able to search it for keywords) is an incredibly valuable benefit. For business meetings, being able to turn a 60 or 90-minute call into a readable transcript to search or refresh yourself or others is a very large time saver which will help you work more efficiently. The software does offer many deeper integrations, such as being able to track script usage (for call centers) or interruptions, deviations, etc.. which would be very valuable to a management team and for training purposes.

Call quality is strong for both video and audio calls. I do not have issues with that. I like the user interface and find navigation very easy. RingCentral provides an AI integration for meeting summaries, transcriptions, and meeting notes, which we use heavily. The texting feature is also a great bonus.

• I wish it was easier for all users to be able to toggle between calls ringing at their desk phone and cell phone

If we haven't used the contact center for support is because the service is so good that make us not need to use it very often. However, I guess our IT team has found some useful features on it for system implementation, automation, and updates that have helped them to keep providing us with the right support as needed.

It's a really intuitive platform. All the buttons and sections are almost exactly where you would expect them to be. Navigating the platform is fairly easy, even for folks who have not used it before. I can usually just tell my colleagues to "go to the settings tab and you'll see the audio settings" and they are able to take it from there.

We honestly did not need much support but whatever we wanted was resolved via email and that experience was nice but took a bit of time

It was really straightforward to get our phone number ported over and start using the platform. The agent walked us through the steps and we were able to configure everything ourselves. Much easier to setup than some of the other platforms

I use Google Cloud Speech to Text and Amazon Transcribe. What makes Amazon Transcribe better for me is the accuracy of the audio-to-text conversion. I have found out that Amazone Transcribe is better at handling homophones, contractions, abbreviations, and acronyms. Another feature that makes Amazon Transcribe my No. 1 choice is its use of punctuation marks. I can also feed my own list of vocabulary into Amazon Transcribe to help me acquire better results.

• With RingCentral Contact Center we were able to connect with our customers. The feature that allows the call to be sent to the first available rep ensured that this happened.
• Also, my favorite feature is the call recording and transcription feature. This allowed me to get the customer's emails without asking them to repeat if I missed them the first time. Hence, happier customers and more meetings.
• RingCentral Contact Center also made it very easy to set up a mailbox for customers to leave messages and reassure them that they've connected with the right person.
