    Five9
    We use Five9 as a tool to make and receive calls from various departments such as Customer Service, Underwriting, Claims, and others. It's a tool that has helped us complete various tasks to contact our customers. It has also allowed us to replace Zoom Phone, as it makes it easier to assign new contact numbers to agents, while Zoom Phone only allows reusing numbers. It's a good tool with an easy-to-use interface for new users.

    At our company, we launch a new property project and receive many customer inquiries in a single day. Zoom contact center helped our team manage all calls and follow-ups properly without missing leads. It is very useful for handling customer communication. During peak hours, some agents face call delays, making it a bit difficult to track reports quickly.

    Pros
    Five9
    • Inbound and outbound calls it process is so well.
    • The service is so good and they give very efficient support in customer need.
    • The calls we can do in Five9 include incoming, outgoing, voicemails and we can also send a note to a specific person. It's a very reliable mode of communication.

    • AI-powered self-service - customers can interact with our virtual agents and get answers to common inquiries, which ensures fast resolutions.
    • Better omnichannel support ensures our agents have an easy time managing customer interactions across chat, voice, and SMS.
    • With Zoom Contact Center in place, we have realized increased agent productivity thanks to its AI features and its ability to integrate with our CRM tool.
    • The advanced routing and insights ensure that customer issues head to the right customer agent depending on skills.

    Cons
    Five9
    • Text. Texting is incredibly difficult on Five9. We've had issues with only some texts logging to Salesforce, issues with threading of text conversations, and issues with having Salesforce contact information appear on the text widget (knowing who you are texting, not just their phone number).
    • The interface to "pause" is challenging. There are not good reminders to our reps to remember to pause or log out of Five9. If you forget to log out, this can affect stats about who worked the longest hours that day - and it's hard to know who actually was active on the phones.
    • Inbound voicemails are too-easily hidden. It's challenging for a lot of our reps to remember to check their inbound voicemails because it is hard to access them in the Five9 widget.

    • The integration with Zoom Phone is still ongoing, so it initially required some tricky configuration and additional phone numbers, but that's no longer a requirement now.
    • I would love a way to use physical handsets with the Contact Centre. Currently, it's all softphone integration on a PC or Mac. But it's a great experience and very similar to using Zoom Meetings, so there's minimal training for staff needed.
    • The Admin Settings on the backend can be tricky to navigate. Still, you have much more customization and constant feature upgrades than I've ever seen with any other Contact Centre service.

    We are very likely to renew Zoom Contact Center because it has been a stable and reliable solution for our organization. It fits well within the broader Zoom ecosystem that we already use, including Zoom Meetings, Zoom Phone, and Zoom Chat, which creates a more seamless experience for users and reduces complexity.
    The product quality has been strong overall, and we have also had positive experiences with Zoom’s customer service. While there are still areas where reporting and certain features could improve, the platform has delivered enough value in usability, stability, and integration to make renewal likely.

    Usability
    Five9
    overall usability is very great. User friendly interface for agents within the Salesforce with the engage button. Easy to go offline and online. Very good Integrations with Salesforce helps lot of clients that implemented Salesforce. As it is cloud based, agents can access it from anywhere. While the agent experience is goof, as a technical person it is hard to manage with the Five9 VCC and also the reporting User Interface is bad and slow when there are large amount of records.

    Usability is one of Zoom Contact Center's strongest selling points. It feels like a natural extension of the Zoom platform rather than a bolted-on contact center tool, which made adoption across our team noticeably smoother than previous system rollouts. Zoom Contact Center is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate for both agents and administrators. For organizations already using Zoom, the learning curve is minimal.

    The system's performance is great. Page loads quickly. Reports are generated quickly and sent to our email or FTP. The integration did not impact the performance of our other applications. We have not seen any drop in the performance of either applications since we performed the integration.

    Five9's Customer Support team is also based in Manila Philippines, thus turnaround email response times for our reported issues are great for our requirements. Their CS agents also facilitate mobile calls to followup on outstanding issues and operate on a 24/7 schedule. We've also had experience working with the senior tech agents to investigate recurring issues to completion.

    We have had a positive experience with Zoom Contact Center support overall. Support has generally been responsive and helpful, and our interactions have given us confidence in the product and platform.
    In addition to the support experience itself, the product has been stable and reliable in day-to-day use, which helps reduce the need for frequent support involvement. When support has been needed, the experience has been solid enough to reinforce our overall positive view of the platform.
    For those reasons, we would rate the overall support highly, while still recognizing there is always room for improvement.

    I took the certification course for administrator and also received some tips while working with the developer during implementation. The UI was very intuitive, so I was able to figure out how things worked when I configured the users, skills, campaigns, IVR scripts. I worked with the Five9 AI team to beta test Agent Assist.

    I implemented Zoom Contact Center myself, and overall the process was straightforward. The platform was relatively easy to configure, and it did not require an unusually large amount of internal support or complexity to get up and running.
    One of the advantages during implementation was how well it fit within the broader Zoom environment, which helped reduce friction and made the setup feel more familiar. In our experience, the implementation process was manageable and efficient overall.
    There is always some room for improvement, but the implementation was smooth enough that I would rate the experience highly.

    Initially selected Five9 but have since switched to RingCentral which has given us what we needed. Better CRM integration, simpler and in my opinion more robust reporting capabilities and the same omnichannel solution at a fraction of the cost

    This tool has enabled us to identify each user's needs across our various communication channels. It has also facilitated a direct point of contact with Zoom’s technical support team, allowing us to document and escalate any situation requiring specialized assistance, which is the primary reason we chose Zoom. I would recommend it to any colleague or company, as it offers a wide variety of tools, and—now, with the integration of AI—the level of service has improved significantly.

    Return on Investment
    Five9
    • Cost savings: Five9 replaced a premise-based outbound dialer and a different virtual call center solution for inbound.
    • Cost savings: Five9's voice over IP is less expensive than the land lines we were using.
    • Cost savings: Five9 requires significantly less management than our previous solutions.

    Zoom
    • Intuitive, Easier and almost effortless to maintain.
    • Lesser Operational Expenses that the alternative we also have
    • We wish it has a better integration with Zoom Phone, in terms of channels integration (Voice and Chat) to quick identify callers.
    • It is missing "modular" programming to "reuse" Existing Flows and call them from other flows then return to the main flow.
    • It is missing the capability to compartmentalizing different teams/groups related to reporting, admin, and global parameters.
