    I didn't personally hate working with Finesse as an end-user, but the frequent bugs and crashes were troublesome. While the frequency wasn't daily or weekly, it was enough to be memorable and difficult to work through. At times the software would crash across the board and take 15 minutes to recover, which pending call volumes, could be highly problematic. When it was working I had few issues or complaints.

    • Call recording is useful. It was quite needed actually because it does not just help with keeping records, but also feedback for the employee because if something gets escalated, we can go through the call again to see where mistakes can be avoided in the future.
    • IVR is another well thought out tool.
    • Ability to distribute calls is top notch.

    It is easy to use, but there are outages that affect the overall customer satisfaction. There were many times when we were unable to enter the call queues or even our direct lines because the system was not functioning properly. It was extremely easy to transfer people and that was a great function of the program.

    We used to use Dialpad and it was a great tool. Since switching to Cisco Finesse, we have had no issues with call forwarding, call transfers, or holding. We no longer experience any issues with our callers in the queue or any issues with call playback for quality assurance. Cisco Finesse has made things much easier around the office.

    We choosed OpenText TeamQ instead of acmatel CCS because of its simple nature. Acmatel CCS was having limited feature with call tracking support. Also, OpenText TeamQ is one of the better tool when you consider the fact of consistency in calling support. I am totally grateful that I had choosen this tool for our business demand.
