Cisco Unified Contact Center vs. Dialpad Support

I would recommend it to other people in my contact and business circle, but if I recommend it to someone who has certain difficulties in accessing some tools within Cisco, he may have great difficulty in getting help because of the support that is lacking in most of the times.

We have a mix of Dialpad Support and regular Departments in Dialpad Support - we mostly use Dialpad Support for our high-volume area or areas we need to keep track of in more detail. In our smaller clinics, with few staff, Dialpad Support doesn't make sense to use to we have them setup as Departments instead.

• Provides you with a solid routing engine that was built to handle Service Provider level throughput - if you need stability and a work horse this is the platform for you.
• The core features on the whole are good, but where UCCE is very good is the eco-system of Solutions Plus partner integrations that expand on the core capabilities with the market leaders in areas such as WFO, Campaign Management, Biometrics and Natural Language.
• The investment Cisco makes in the CC space means they are always improving the platform features, scale and reliability.

Incentivized

• The ease of use and integration into our local IT infrastructure
• It improved business process agility especially for the work from home agents
• It improved our customer relations/service with fewer dropped calls
• It gives managers better reporting capabilities and call usage statistics

• After 25+ years, the product still requires experienced and highly skilled engineers to deploy the product properly per Cisco Best Practice guidelines.
• Third-party integrations are also very cumbersome and require highly skilled and experienced engineers and significant time and financial investment to deploy.
• Upgrading the product is cumbersome and requires Cisco ATP or Cisco AS which is time consuming and very expensive.

Incentivized

• Live Dashboard should show more Bigger text otherwise agent cannot see by big monitors located in office!
• Waiting for Dialpad Ai which will never available in Japan
• Never understand the call journey who hung up the phone
• When PC shut down, agent should be Off duty but still Available and call rings.
• Support chat use weird Japanese
• Never provide update information beforehand which sometime make confusion and troubles that Google cloud platform made

if it is up to me I would maintain its use. I was not able to make those decisions previously.

I have never had any issues with getting a problem resolved. The dialpad support team is responsive and extremely helpful. As busy as our business is getting, having the AI transcripts and call recordings aid us in being more task productive when helping patients. Other than the patient aspect of it, having no hardware maintenance is amazing

Cisco Unified Contact Center is a scalable product . Can be used in amy organizational units not only the contact center . Can be used for many IT Helpdesk setups and any internal or external CC . We can use it to automate the outbound dialing as well for marketting and invoices and other use cases

I always get great customer service when I need help. Even if i just decide to chat online instead of calling in. The reps are always so nice and the customer service is always amazing. I have never had any complaints. Usually my issues are pretty simple and they never make it harder than it needs to be

Cisco Unified Contact center is a very smart & reliable solution to go for. Its active-active sight base architecture and [customizable] features really help to deliver efficient customer service, enhanced next-gen experience, and uninterrupted operations. I believe every [organization] should opt for it if required.

I have never contacted support.

Similar I guess, however, I feel like Avaya was more suited for a contact center and allowed for all information to be in one place. The QA Forms were more flexible and easy to review. Predicative analysis was available to assist with scheduling and staffing. It was easier to manipulate and implement- I didn't need to go through 3 different parties to make a simply modification.

We looked at Aria, but we already had Dialpad Support and decided just to move forward with more features. I think the familiarity with the Dialpad app and the basic features made the addition of new features a much more seamless process rather than attempting to try dual software.

Licenses are very expensive. The customer has to buy IP telephony or Unified Communication and Collaboration Licenses and for Contact Center Solution licenses separately. There must be a price tone down as the competition is really high. New customers are willing to go for cloud-based solutions [that] are cheaper and easy to deploy.

Scripting not supported

• A smoother route to helping end users with critical needs
• With quick assist while on hold, less calls come into the pool while agents have the ability to assist more critical needs
• The ability to work remotely during an extreme event assisting end users

Incentivized

• The callback feature has saved clients a lot of hold time
• The voicemail system has allowed cases to be handled properly by client's being able to leave a message for the proper agent
• The Ai transcript feature has helped dozens of agents, as well as the company, avoid a lot of hassle, time, and lost money due to verifying conversations and information that normally would be much harder to confirm without it
