Genesys
If they want it as the stand alone, I would recommend it all day every day. If they want to integrate with Salesforce, I'd tell them to think about it, and not want anything overly complicated. It just really sucks to always be behind the curve of everyone else on the same platform. I heard this same issue voiced to at the conference in COsta Mesa, and it was said that Salesforce will always be at minimum 6 months behind on features. Also, skill based routing needs work. If there is anticipation of the call transferring to a new agent, skills don't strip. So if a Customer Service rep gets a call for sales, they can't transfer the call without holding on to the skills applied to the call already, which no one in Sales would have. We had to build a custom script to make it work.

GoContact is a good choice for medium and larger contact centers who deal with more than 2k calls per day for example. This software is a leader in managing Outbound Campaigns and it's easy to use. It's also suitable if you don't have a CRM and want to manage tickets and omnichannel customer service. If you just want an easy to use and easy to setup software and just making occasional outbound calls there's cheaper solutions.

Cons
Genesys
  • Sorting A-Z for some call statistics.
  • Schedule groups/schedules need to be improved so we can manage them better.
  • Filter clearing.
  • When you're in Architect, and you've scrolled to the right, and you click on a box, it moves the screen all the way back to the left.
  • Make a way to hide the box on the right in Architect so you can view the whole call flow.

Usability
Genesys
Everything is very good. It is very useful, friendly to users and it makes our work easier than what we expected. I think that I don't need any help from someone on how to use Genesys coz basically they will directly feed it to you without any hassle on using it.

Every user adapts quicky to the workspace and functionality but technically it should be easier to deal with the soft phone configuration. Team Leaders and Business Managers can get all the information they need to make decisions with a high level of usability. GoContact should think about bringing their software to an app version like their competition is doing.

Reliability and Availability

We had a couple of times where there were application issues or unplanned outages, but they were resolved very quickly. We were never in the position where it was a total outage, which is very important.

There seem to be so many pages and options for support - but none of them are very seamless and some are very hard to maneuver or manage. I would like to learn more about the product features and tutorials etc. - but have had a hard time finding appropriate content.

Their support was in fact an extension of my team since day 1 and helped us in a big way with training, set up and solving operational doubts and issues in a fast and truly interested way. Personally, I had an account manager 24/7 at my disposal without any additional charge or something. They also care about our business and provide tips so we can get better results.

Online Training
Genesys
I have taken the preparatory course for Genesys Cloud Certification. I must say that it is a good training for administrators and analysts. The bibliography is very clear and is easy to identify the topics, which are conveniently separated. It is, in my opinion, mandatory for those who want to exercise the position of Genesys Cloud platform administrators.

The support engineer that I partnered with during the implementation was exceptional. Every element of the process was done together and the end result of the efforts to grow the knowledge to be able to hand over at the end enabled a pretty smooth transition.

Genesys Cloud CX wins hands down for all the interaction support and the multitude of interaction types. Switching from RingCentral to Cloud Cx was an obvious choice in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. We had better day-to-day operational support and guidance. That was really a game changer for us since we implemented it.

Since I was looking for a solution that allowed me to move about 50 door-to-door sellers to remote telemarketing work I needed a solution that was easy and fast to set up and to manage from a distance. GoContact is a leader in massive outbound solutions and very well recommended by people in my network.

Professional Services
Genesys
Professional services are definitely much more experienced than the support teams, and the price for their services is very fair. I wish that the support team could help answer simple questions about work that the PSS team does, however, so that we do not have to use our SOW for simple Q&A emails.

Return on Investment
Genesys
  • The ROI has been difficult to prove as the data provided with CX2 is pretty minimal.
  • The benefit and detriment are it has to integrate with other providers like SuccessKPI in order to get detailed information and not an all-in-one solution.
