Likelihood to Recommend Collab OneContact is an all around platform that can be used in any situation. It can be used in situation where there isn't a PBX. I've seen some solutions where the platform is integrated, using SIP with a CUCM.
Read full review The ease of use and file retention/retrieval is key. The adjustment from an e-mail-focused workflow to the RingCentral Contact Center was easier with the organization. Recall and search features mimic Outlook and allow me to quickly find what I’m looking for. RingCentral Contact Center is not ideal for communication with external partners, so we still have to rely on Outlook e-mails for that.
Read full review Pros Call Flow, ACD and IVR. Dynamic platform with the possibility to integrate with the client existing solution. Was built to stand alone, with no need for a supporting PBX, or a advanced reporting module. Read full review Reliability: Our previous service was prone to outages, RingCentral Contact Center has been rock solid as long as we've used it. Integration: Our IT team was able to build a custom RingCentral Contact Center dashboard on our website for our salespeople to manage inbound/ outbound calling. From there we were able to send call data directly into activities in our ERP (Acumatica). Ease of use: It works well whether in the office or WFH (which many employees do regularly. Read full review Cons The need to have a Microsoft SQL Server 2012/2014 Standard in order to save the media interactions. The email module needs a little more work. Read full review I would like to be able to text from our main office line rather than only my office direct line, so I can keep my direct line private I wish it was easier for all users to be able to toggle between calls ringing at their desk phone and cell phone It would be nice if the process to add other team member's numbers to our desk phone screen was easier Read full review Likelihood to Renew We have no intention of renewing our contract with Ring Central. We have had multiple outages in the past 2 years. We have been without an account manager for the past 4 months and the resolution of open issues takes 2-3 months. We were being misbilled for cancelled services for almost 12 months. We are not satisfied with the quality, support, or price of the service
Read full review Usability RingCentral Contact Center is not just only an app or platform which allows the company to manage the telephone calls, messaging functions, social media and emails, but also allows advanced features like the possibility of easy integration with other industrial systems, and customer/call analysis functions as well. It also supports and included with AI technology as well into some extent.
Read full review Support Rating We honestly did not need much support but whatever we wanted was resolved via email and that experience was nice but took a bit of time
Read full review Implementation Rating As I recall it was not a very cumbersome implementation and we were up and running as promised
Read full review Alternatives Considered CUCCX is a great platform but it can't be considered when working with other manufacturers, even if they support SIP. For this reason, when you're building a network that isn't just installed by one provider, I would suggest an approach different from CUCCX (considering VoIP and CC platforms, not routing or switching). OneContact allows the integration between platforms, allowing short number dialing between different contexts, recording other advanced telephony solution. Collab's Customer interaction Hub is a great solution for clients that need a CRM, but don't need much complexity, this mini-CRM is a great asset against the competition and facilitates the deployment of an omni-channel Contact Center.
Read full review RingCentral Contact Center's application is much more intuitive than Nextiva's application. It's also easier to configure. It also has a lot of functionality that Nextiva does not. For example, RingCentral will transcribe Voice mail messages for us, whereas Nextiva does not. RingCentral also sends us notifications when a customer sends us a text message, whereas Nextiva does not.
Read full review Return on Investment It has a low initial CAPEX It has low maintenance The manufacterer support can be a considerable cost. Read full review With RingCentral Contact Center we were able to connect with our customers. The feature that allows the call to be sent to the first available rep ensured that this happened. Also, my favorite feature is the call recording and transcription feature. This allowed me to get the customer's emails without asking them to repeat if I missed them the first time. Hence, happier customers and more meetings. RingCentral Contact Center also made it very easy to set up a mailbox for customers to leave messages and reassure them that they've connected with the right person. Read full review ScreenShots
