Bandwidth vs. Webex Connect

Bandwidth is great for wholesale origination and termination. With a decent commitment, you can get great rates, and their support is excellent. Recommended as a primary source of service for voice traffic.

Webex Connect is a necessity for many of our clients, and we have observed that their whole infrastructure is built around it. This proves to be more helpful, when you are working across platforms across multiple apps. Apart from that, managing client onboarding in projects, auto responders, creating channels, creating automated flows, pushing updates to keep them in loop, are some of the features that we use on a daily term. For me, Automation of flows was relatively new, and to see it in action for the first time was an incredibly new experience. Especially the part where I did API integration for our internal chat module.

• It makes customer communication easy.
• It improves customer interactions.
• I like its ability to personalize customer journey as thus helps boost customer satisfaction.
• It comes with great automation capabilities.
• It better customer experience as well as enhancing digital resilience.
• The tool supports multiple digital communication channels.

• While their porting department does a wonderful job, it seems to be the department that feeds other departments. They promote many out of that department to take on more responsibility elsewhere in the company (which is a good thing). However, it leaves us to work with yet another porting person who we have to learn to work with.
• I cannot really say much else that's negative about them. They do a good job, have an easy to use portal, and respond well when things aren't working.

Incentivized

• integrating multiple third-party applications
• The initial setup and configuration can be a bit complex for new users
• The documentation could be more detailed for advanced automation use cases, and sometimes the response time for support queries feels slower during peak hours.

I would rate a solid 9 in case of usability as it does its work perfectly without any lacks and delays, we are using it for almost 3 years now and have not faced any major bug or issue with it. along with that it's easy to construct a Flow end to end where you just drag and drop icons to make the nodes working together with each other and as well as its learning curve is very simple and can be used by a non tech person also.

Bandwidth wins hands down. We were lucky to get someone from CenturyLink to return our calls, their trouble reporting dashboard was horrible and they, as a company, were generally unresponsive when we escalated issues. They would close tickets when the issue was still very obviously occurring. Bandwidth doesn't close a ticket until the end user says it is fixed -- which is refreshing in the telecom industry.

Webex Connect has a great user interface and multiple client handling capacity, which makes it stand out from the competition. They also have support from Cisco teams, which is a game changer in this field. They have way more advanced systems than other companies.
