    Exotel is well suited for: - Small and mid-sized Internet based businesses where it is necessary for them to have a very strong customer support team working round the clock and in different shifts. - Company making large number of calls and sending mass SMS's. They can do that on a single cloud based platform. Exotel might not be a good fit if: -it is not a call intensive business that you want to cater to. Though the setup cost is very low but it follows economies of scale i.e. more the number of calls, less will be per call cost.

    The flexibility of the open APIs makes it easy to adapt the solution to one's needs and requirements. We could create our own solution tailored to our personal needs and create >3.000 highly customized call flows with minimal configuration effort. Including the possibility to implement additional features with a few clicks across all call flows.

    • To quickly and effectively route customer inquiries to the appropriate agents our customer support team uses it's omnichannel routing feature , a member with technical knowledge may be contracted by customer who has a technical questions.
    • Its automated ticket routing features allows customer service team to distribute tickets to customer team member in accordance with their availability and skill sets. by ensuring that tickets are handled by most knowledgeable agents this can result in quicker and more precise resolutions.
    • Its AI powered knowledge base search feature helps us to quickly find the details required to respond to inquiries from customer , this time it take to respond to customer inquires is shortened as a result.

    • The digital channels is one of those. I definitely think the digital channels stands out as a unique product. From a contact center agent standpoint, that when you've got customers, maybe retail customers or that stuff, it's a great fit for that. For anybody who really trying to deal with customers.

    Cons
    Exotel Techcom
    • Inter campaigns call transfer feature which currently is not possible
    • Interface in Agent login to monitor and keep track of their own break and login times.
    • Ameyo’s wide feature set can make onboarding challenging. Offering enhanced training materials, interactive tutorials, and a more structured onboarding process could make adoption easier for new users.

    • Webex Contact Center fits well when the group of users or agents is larger, but sometimes there are use cases where we might need to use Webex Calling, while still having the features of the Webex Contact Center. Currently, I've been seeing a little shift of features that have been getting rolled out from contact centers to calling. The bridges are becoming closer and closer every day, but it would be great to see the same feature sets in Webex Contact Center and Calling.

    We are happy with the product, with Cisco as a partner and the roadmap looks mightily impressive. Webex Contact Center is one of our growth areas so we're keen to get more agents on the platform, we want to get more customers on it and we want to make use of all the features and functionalities it offers, so that we can help our customers do what they do best.

    Usability
    Exotel Techcom
    As I said previously, Ameyo is a good tool however it has a long way to go compared to Avaya. The user interface can be improved a lot as they can use it as an app instead of completely web-based. Also, the reporting can be improved substantially and make the experience much better.

    It is great to use Webex Contact Center as it delivers the call routing and workflow for agent and call routing. In addition to this the noise reduction helps to focus attention on the call and with the client. The notes feature and the ability for the transcription really helps with translation and language barriers.

    Support Rating
    Exotel Techcom
    Initially they had chat support which was available faster. But now the chat support gets routed to a virtual agent and unable to get in touch with an actual agent. They also have no support with respect to the API's and other integrations.

    Exotel was selected by us because of the following reasons: -Low set-up and maintenance cost as compared to its peers. -Prompt customer service: You want to upgrade your plan or facing any issues around the platform, Exotel team is just a call away. -Call recording Quality was also better than the peers.

    • No Capex required for this solution (which makes our CFO very happy)
    • Digital channels are builtin and therefore very easy to deploy
    • The built in CRM integration was missing features so we had to install a thirdparty connector which we had to pay for (and wasn't in our budget) in order to get the features which our business demanded
