Genesys Cloud CX vs. Mailtrack vs. Streak

We have been able to use Genesys Voice AI conversation BOT to address customer standard queries like check upcoming appointment schedules, reschedule appointments, payment status, bill copy. All these use cases were handled by agents earlier and now this has been completely automated. We are now able use agents for complex tasks and provide standard services 24/7 which earlier had agent dependency.

It is critical in Sales to understand if someone received and read the email you sent, and Mailtrack is perfect for this. It is not a critical tool when you are receiving emails but definitely a critical tool when sending emails and you need to know the status and to understand if they even read what you sent.

If you receive a notification that a prospect just read your email and you don't receive a response, you're then aware they've received it and your pitch or product is on their mind -- making a call later that day all the more effective.

• Extensive API access to allow flexibility with the platform
• Weekly updates to continuously improve the platform
• Powerful Architect flows that are intuitive to build, but still powerful and flexible
• Extensive integration with other applications, either through dedicated integrations or API hooks

• Immediately you will be notified once any user accesses the email. There is no delay. We have crossed checked and it works awesome.
• The Mailtrack extension is easy to use. Setting up an account and getting started is smooth and fast.
• Free version includes unlimited email tracking, this is fab.

• The e-mail tracking feature is easy to use and very handy.
• The snippets feature are very good, have shortcuts to use and save a lot of time.
• Having a CRM platform inside your Gmail/Gsuite account is great for improving the use in a day to day basis.

• There is a limit of 5 Audiohook monitor integrations for Genesys, which could have been more.
• Genesys customer support could have been more proactive and helpful, similar to other major companies like Salesforce and AWS. However, whenever I raised a concern, in most cases, they would directly tell me it was a custom requirement, so I should post in the dev community or contact their Professional Services (PS) team.
• In the Genesys Dev community, if you post any of your problems, it's unlikely that they will be noticed, and you will likely not receive a resolution to this issue. Moreover, if no one replies to you within 30 days, that post of yours will also be closed.

• Some of the settings can be confusing at first.
• Some alerts are on by default and can be annoying at times.
• Good to know if the email was deleted.
• It would be great to know how much time recipients spent on each email.

• Streak could improve in the way it first integrates into Gmail. When you clear Cache and Cookies it disconnects and then you can accidentally send out emails without open-tracking.
• It could improve by having a better import system for importing data into the "boxes" used for mail merges.
• It could be improved by having the ability to split reminders for companies, based on who you talked to.

The upcoming upgrades working with Genesys Cloud and Salesforce are very exciting. Even though we don't use Genesys Cloud to the fullest extent it can be used (we just migrated a year ago), when these upgrades roll out, I am very excited to see what it can do to for our agents. I think they are going to be very impressed

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.

I would rate Mailtrack's overall usability as a ten out of ten. The reasons for this are actually quite simple. For now, only I have been using Mailtrack. However, looking at the rather easy to use characteristics Mailtrack has to offer, I would not hesitate to recommend it to the rest of my colleagues.

The platform is highly reliable, with minimal downtime or outages, and is generally available when needed. Over the course of using it, unplanned outages or application errors have been rare, and any issues that did arise were quickly resolved. Genesys provides robust support and maintenance, ensuring the system remains operational during critical business hours. However, like any cloud-based platform, there have been occasional disruptions, though these were infrequent and quickly addressed. Overall, its availability has been excellent, supporting smooth daily operations.

Overall, the platform performs well, with pages loading quickly and reports typically completing in a reasonable time, even with complex data. The interface is responsive, and most day-to-day tasks are executed efficiently. However, in some instances, especially during peak usage times or when running very detailed, large-scale reports, there can be slight delays. While these are rare, they occasionally affect workflow. Additionally, the platform generally integrates smoothly with other systems, though some integrations can slow down slightly, particularly when pulling large datasets or interacting with older, legacy systems. Nonetheless, the performance is strong and reliable for most use cases.

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.

This rating is fully deserved for the reasons I mentioned earlier. Namely, firstly, ease of use. Secondly, the reliability and speed of the application. Thirdly, the unobtrusiveness of its functioning. Fourth, the positive effect that the application has on the process of management communication between company employees. Fifth, the overall usability of the application due to the minimum settings.

They do a great job of explaining the product beforehand so support interaction is not needed as much.

Genesys team that provide trainings are friendly and professional. They helped us to understand well the product and the functionalities. The training was detailed with use cases. At the end, we got a task to develop that ended with success and we got some Genesys rewards. It was amazing experience

In general, it gives a description and can help to understand what to do and how. but: Sometimes, it does not keep up with changes in the system (for example, in the GUI changes, additional features and so on). Sometimes, much easier and helpful to read the documentation (https://help.mypurecloud.com/) that gives the "better" explanations and takes less time.

My Team was involved in the discussion before implementing the application. We had a whole walkthrough of this product and during the demo itself we were very impressed with type of service we were getting. The integration of the product into our system was very quick and seamless.

Genesys Cloud CX is much easier to manage than PureConnect - all from one system rather than needing separate components to install and validate. The ease of use when utilising all of the functionality really brings us to present day technology. Where it falls down is in its Outbound systems, currently we are still using pureconnect as an outbound platform and shortfalls in the Cloud CX system has meant we must look elsewhere for our future operations.

The biggest alternatives I've tried are whole email systems - Polymail and Newton. Newton was bar none the best email handling application AND the best email tracker, however, unfortunately, they went out of business at the end of summer 2018. Mailtrack is different because it only does one thing, it tracks email. Without Newton (Polymail is also iOS only, and expensive), Mailtrack is really the only decent solution for email tracking without buying a big system like a CRM. I didn't want to pay $100+/month for user seats, I just wanted to track my own emails for some better intel. That's what Mailtrack does, and that's what Mailtrack is priced to do.

HubSpot was almost too freeform, I had a hard time grasping how it could work for me because there was so much that could be changed around. Streak was so easy to figure out without much time invested and I like that it just lives in my Gmail without needing to go to a separate website/login.

I give Genesys a rating of 10 for scalability because of its ability to adapt seamlessly to growing business needs, whether expanding across multiple departments, locations, or regions. Its cloud-based infrastructure allows for easy scaling without the need for costly hardware upgrades or lengthy implementation times. As our organisation grew, we were able to add new agents, channels, and features without disrupting operations, which significantly enhanced our flexibility. The platform's design supports both small-scale and enterprise-level operations, making it ideal for evolving businesses. Additionally, its capacity to handle increased interaction volumes without compromising performance ensures that customer service quality remains high, even during peak times. This flexibility and ease of scaling, combined with real-time analytics and automation capabilities, make it highly effective for growing organisations.

• Our Idle time for agents decreased by up to 30% compared to the previous system. Agents who are idle and not accepting calls are placed in a not responding status, which is a significant addition to our idle time.
• 35% of our customers are able to complete their queries in the IVR. Integration with Salesforce made this possible, as the data is retrieved directly from the platform and accessed in real time. This helped us reduce the Agents' workload and significantly increase revenue.
• Gamification is a huge plus; our Agents are actively tracking the weekly scores and working toward them to achieve them.

• After I started using the Mailtrack, the responses to my emails increased by at least 30%.
• Once I submitted/sent an important email and got the notification that the email was sent, I feel safe that my email/request has been processed/viewed without being worried that the email went to the spam box.

• As soon as we started using streak to email our list it cut down my time significantly. No longer did I have to copy and paste emails to everyone.
• Being able to track responses and follow up is amazing.
• Being able to contact people who are recommended to us but are not yet on our sales list has been huge.
