Chose Avaya Aura
We have tried these alternates, but ultimately reverted to an on-Prem Avaya Aura solution. Genesys was too expensive to maintain and we could not find enough skilled people to help support it. Cloud hosted solutions just aren't customizable enough for our users.

So I've seen the Cisco product out there. I've seen the old Nortel products, Mitel, I've been doing this for a long time. I've seen a lot of other products. And Avaya, Nortel were the Western Electric and Northern Electric of the world way back when. So pretty much the …

Teams phone is much better in user administration and soft client. Another area that they are far apart are UC, meetings, collaboration, Video. Their noise cancellation is superb. Easy to use and set up are night and day compared to Avaya Aura remote worker. There is no easy …

Avaya Aura is a complete UC platform, whereas Aspect has been primarily a Contact Center platform that provides function for non contact center applications secondarily.

I used to work with Cisco UCCE and I am seeing Avaya is catching up.

Analyzed as a possible replacement when moving to a new building. Easy handling an broad feature set. Did not match up with Aura on a cost perspective. Rip and replace was far to costly and involved risks in implementation of special features were not acceptable. This is …

We work with Avaya Aura, but now we plan to move to the cloud with AxP. It's an important movement to deliver more services to our customers e less worry about IT infrastructure.

I like Avaya a lot better with the feature set and integration.

Avaya Aura is secure and reliable; in our case, for customers that looking for stable solutions on voice, Avaya Aura is that solution fit. In a scenario where our customer is looking for digitalization, I think Avaya Aura is less appropriate.

So one of the things it's done well is it's stable. It's networked at all the sites. We have five-digit dialing everywhere, and one of the features we like is the crisis alert feature. So if somebody calls 911 at a particular school, it sets an alarm off on the phones upfront and displays the extension number and the room number of who called 911. So they can respond and they know where to send first responders. So it's pretty cool.

Avaya Aura is extremely complex. Now that AI has come into the fold, Avaya needs to apply AI processes and tools to help identify and resolve issues with an installed platform. In addition, proactively identify potential issues. Ayaya has had some financial difficulties over the last few years. This may be why they outsource their expensive support. Our customer experience would benefit by having access to Avaya knowledgeable Engineers for questions about products and services as needed.

So I've seen the Cisco product out there. I've seen the old Nortel products, Mitel, I've been doing this for a long time. I've seen a lot of other products. And Avaya, Nortel were the Western Electric and Northern Electric of the world way back when. So pretty much the grandparents of all the other stuff that's out there. So their foundation is really strong. So I think this product stacks up amazing, especially for places that are mission critical, like hospitals, maybe the military, and stuff like that. They have the app, if you need an app, they do stuff on mobile devices, and that you can have remote workers. So I think they stack up really well against the other companies. The problem is probably advertising and the schools that are teaching this stuff are promoting a particular product and that's where the other products have the advantage. They're in the schools and it's, I call it indoctrination, but they're in the schools and they're teaching the people. The other product, their competitors are teaching in the schools, their product line. And that's how they can do promotion better.

As far as a negative impact on a surface level, not too much negative impact was to go right into that and we had the scare eight months ago. Well, we didn't know if Avaya was a product we were going to be able to continue with. But after this conference, we got the warm and fuzzies back. That is a product that we can keep for a number of years and they'll continue to grow and keep on upgrading it and stay current. So we'll be sticking with that.
