I don't think it can even compare. Genesys Cloud CX is a whole different level. The biggest advantage was that Genesys cares about its customers, regardless of size; it listens to feedback, encourages customers to get involved with its roadmap, and provides so many educational …

Chose Genesys Cloud CX
There really is no comparison between Genesys Cloud CX and other vendors we considered. We worked with two other products and neither came close to offering the sophistication, end-user interface or reliability that Genesys offers.
Genesys is an end-to-end solution developed in-house - at the time of evaluating Ring Central it was coupled with Nice In Contact, and did not work seamlessly.
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 …
Ring Central is one of the most simplified contact centre solutions in the market. They have multiple contact centers including one in partnership with Nice CXOne. One difference I have seen in all these solutions is the level of support. Cisco leads in support but they have …
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.
Call quality is strong for both video and audio calls. I do not have issues with that. I like the user interface and find navigation very easy. RingCentral provides an AI integration for meeting summaries, transcriptions, and meeting notes, which we use heavily. The texting feature is also a great bonus.
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.
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
If we haven't used the contact center for support is because the service is so good that make us not need to use it very often. However, I guess our IT team has found some useful features on it for system implementation, automation, and updates that have helped them to keep providing us with the right support as needed.
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.
It's a really intuitive platform. All the buttons and sections are almost exactly where you would expect them to be. Navigating the platform is fairly easy, even for folks who have not used it before. I can usually just tell my colleagues to "go to the settings tab and you'll see the audio settings" and they are able to take it from there.
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.
Support does indeed resolve the issue but they seem to be really slow and I have to stay on them to get my ticket handled. Everyone I have interacted with is very professional and pleasant. Other than being slow its been a good experience
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.
It was really straightforward to get our phone number ported over and start using the platform. The agent walked us through the steps and we were able to configure everything ourselves. Much easier to setup than some of the other platforms
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.
All of them are good choices, but if you're looking for something where all of these are included, it must needs be RingCentral Contact Center, All in one communication tool, don't worry about communication outages, RingCentral Contact Center updates in out of office schedules, if you're looking for "The Experience" RingCentral is the best choice.
Genesys provides Licensing in 3 tier subscription types of licenses on top based on any business requirements then any sort of feature/functionality inclusion (or removal) is discussed openly. There are 2 types of billing models available which are "Named" and "Concurrent" based on the type of roles users will perform in Genesys Cloud CX environment (eg. Agent, Supervisor, Administrator, and Business Users) Also, the billing period/frequency starts on the actual day the platform is delivered.
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.
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.
For a product-based company like ours, we have existing Genesys customers who can use our product, as we have already integrated our product & solution into Genesys.
By viewing Genesys as a contact center, we generate numerous ideas about what features need to be implemented.
Genesys is the best choice for big, enterprise-level businesses as it can handle multiple calls simultaneously seamlessly.
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.
