The NICE Engage Platform is a call recording and compliance platform, providing holistic real-time monitoring, and long time storage for recorded conversations.
This is great software for differentiating where phone traffic is coming from. Whether it's paid/organic search, you can see exactly where the calls are coming in from. I'd love to see them add text/SMS features in the future, but it does what it claims. I'd also like to see more CRM integrations, but not sure that other users share the same sentiment
If you need a customer communication tool that has almost all the functionality out of the box this program is for you. However now that other services have more AI capability we are changing to a new service that will reduce the workload on our agents and allow us to automate many customer interactions. The pricing of another service is also more varied based on usage and our current inflow is lower than before so our cost should drop with that decreased communication
Tracking phone calls first & foremost! Being able to have a running tally of the phone calls made and listening to the recorded calls throughout the month and providing that information back to our clients is vital!
Their UI is exceptionally easy to use & navigate. This is important when we have many clients running at the same time and we are able to always determine what report is for which client.
The ease of setting up a brand new client & their tracking phone number is fantastic! Saves a lot of time when it walks you through everything you need to know & do step by step.
The integration with Hubspot is not as seemless as I would have liked. We had an issue where a person who was already in Hubspot called in, and their contact information was not matched to the caller ID correctly which created some duplicate entries. A little bit of a bummer, but from what I understand they may have fixed this. We had to stop using them for a little while because our outsourced sales team was more confused by adding CallRail, so we'll be re-implementing this once our new sales team is fully trained. Hopefully the record miss-match issue gets fixed.
Ever since we have had NICE Engage Platform we have had issues with the program auto refusing calls and texts for our agents which luckily just routes to the next agent but this is hurting their call metrics.
The cost is more expensive that some comparable options
Texting functionality is somewhat limited and seeing the text history is also lacking.
The platform is easy to use and we really don't have any complaints with using it so far. The information is invaluable for clients that rely on phone calls to drive more business. Not much negative to say about it at this point. We're actually really happy with it so far and the cost is manageable.
The tools for managers are very straightforward but the useability for the agents could be simplified or put into more common terms. Some of the setting phrases could use some explanations or reorganization. There is also little troubleshooting ability we can do when and agents has an issue besides force logging them out and having them log back in
CallRail support normally gets back to us pretty quickly when we submit a ticket and they have a good knowledge base for common questions. I've heard mixed reviews from other local marketing agencies that use this tool, but overall in my experience, support has been knowledgeable and quick working through our problems.
Callrail has a very seamless and easy to use Dynamic Number Swap function. In other call tracking that we looked into the integration was either not as easy to use or required much more work to implement. Setting up CallRail has been so easy even our entry-level employees need very little training to master the platform.
NICE Engage Platform has way more functionality than Simpletext and it allowed us to have calls and texts handled by one system rather than having to use two separate tools. NICE Engage Platform also allowed us to launch web chat functionality for those visiting our website. There was also no way with Simpletext to see what agent was responding to each text. It was a freeforall in the inbox. No integration into our CRM either.
It is useful to monitor our calls weekly. We can give our employees feedback on the quality of the calls which helps our overall sales and conversions.
By knowing which campaigns perform best, we can shift our budget to target those campaigns specifically which saves us revenue and increases sales.
