Considered Both Products

Chose Five9
Five9 has way better features than RingCentral - Five9 has way better features including the Call script, software integration, and ability to manage outbound campaigns while RingCentral doesn't allow these features
Chose Five9
Five9 allows to call automatically to the leads in Hubspot, this wasn’t possible with JustCall.
Chose Five9
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.
Chose Five9
I currently use Gong.io at my current company, I really like the dashboard of Gong.
Chose Five9
We started evaluating Zendesk Talk when Five9 lost integration with Zendesk, as we use Zendesk as our primary CS database and issue tracker. However, Five9 offers better ROI than Zendesk Talk given we require unlimited minutes for our requirements, thus we continue with our …
Chose Five9
While we use Invoca and LeadsPedia for more granular tracking and data, Five9 has always sort of been the end all be all. If it's in Five9, it's pretty concrete that the info in Five9 is the correct information. It doesn't matter which campaign a call came through, if it came …
Chose Five9
We recommend Five9, with 2 major reasons: Its flexibility on contract terms and base contacts are less restrictive.
Chose Five9
I have not used another dialer system other than Five9. Before Five9, we dialed our clients with lists and standard phone systems.
Chose Five9
We felt that Five9 was superior to Genesys PureCloud because of Five9's ability to better manage outbound dialing campaigns. Genesys PureCloud required automation rules to reset/refresh the list position which meant that it was impossible to keep up with our aggressive dialing …
Chose Five9
Used solutions from Cisco, VICI, SkySwitch in the past. Comparing cost, resources, and deployment time, Five9 wins for sure.
Chose Five9
Five9 has some of the same features as competitors but offers other features that help users better complete their tasks. This could be tasks such as putting calls on hold, logging calls and reports, and multitasking on the system platform. Overall, Five9 feels very easy to use …
Chose Five9
We started with InContact and were very disappointed that you could not make changes without incurring costs for each program or project. Five9 allows us to adjust to any new clients needs without incurring costs.
Chose Five9
I've used RingCentral, LiveOps, and Sendbloom Contact in my sales career so far.

Five9 is more sophisticated and offers more customizable features than all the above products. Only RingCentral and Five9 have texting ability, but neither solution is perfect at threading …
Chose Five9
I would use Five9 verses another application because it is user friendly. You can add users and manage them as your business grows, and have your stats easily accessible. The ability to use it remotely is a huge factor as well.
Chose Five9
Five9 blows Serenova out of the water. Serenova is an immature platform compared to Five9. Five9 provides many features that Serenova does not and is a much more stable platform, which is absolutely critical in our 24/7/365 environment.
Chose Five9
Better than the old ShoreTel Director we had prior to deploying Five9. But could be better!
Chose Five9
When we chose Five9, it was largely due to the research of features and functionality, plus hearing good things about it from other contact centers in our area.
One huge edge that Five9 has compared with other dialers...is that you don't pay per minute of talk time (unless it's …
Chose Five9
We looked at the differences and though it looked like a great piece of software, it was very expensive, and had a lot of features that we didn't need at the time. We may look back at them in the future, but right now Five9 suits our needs and we save a little money in the …
Chose Five9
I looked at 10 solutions and for the price along with the functionality, ease of use, ease of integration and new features such as agent desktop. I believe this solution provided the biggest bang for your buck.
Chose Five9
Five9 met our main requirement of integrating with Zendesk. We evaluated other products that provided more robust options as far as IVR set up and voice data analytics, both for QA and for driving insights through voice recording analysis. That's interesting, but not essential …

Five9
Five9 is suited for both large-scale and small-scale companies. If your company deals with marketing more than the technical aspect, Five9 gives a mode of communication and getting in touch with our customer or client in the most reliable way rather than setting physical meetings. In the covid period, Five9 has made it easier to work on calls.

Pros
Five9
  • Easy dialing and call logging. The process of starting or answering a call, then logging a call disposition with its notes, is simple and easy.
  • Voicemail drops. You can pre-record voicemails to leave for customers without needing to speak the voicemail content each time. This is a huge timesaver for our reps.
  • You can customize the call dispositions / call labels to match what's used in your CRM.

Cons
Five9
  • Java based desktop application is a pain to keep updated.
  • The user interface for the agent desktop application is clunky and outdated. It could use a facelift.
  • The help center for documentation isn't well organized and the documentation needs substantial editing.

Performance
Five9
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.

Support Rating
Five9
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.

Online Training

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.

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.
