Genesys
Overall, the platform is good and provides different channels and collaborative functionalities. The interface is modern and intuitive the users tend to like it. Regarding the technical part, it's overall good support and has great training, however, as with any tool, there's always room for improvement.

RingCentral Contact Center has been one of the best contact center software that I've used. The calling feature is probably one of the easiest to use. The recordings are very easy to access. Also, it is very easy to host meetings but I hardly ever used that feature because it is not something that is widely used by our prospects. However, it was great when we wanted to connect with fellow colleagues.

Pros
Genesys
  • Documentation is stellar, and I am able to search Beyond training or the knowledge base for anything I need.
  • Call flows and IVR is stupid easy to build and work in.
  • End users (CSRs) like the interface and seem to be able to navigate easily in the system.

RingCentral
  • They have an app so you do not miss any calls or messages from your customers or leads.
  • RingCentral has everything you need especially if you're working remotely. Therefore, you do not need to use other software.
  • They automatically transcribe the calls as well so if I miss something this normally helps.

Cons
Genesys
  • Client customization
  • Help articles are lacking in detail, sometimes contain broken links or have out dated and/or are lacking information
  • Features are missing that were in PureConnect, e.g. Drag-and-drop to transfer
  • "Too many clicks" is often a complaint, e.g. to transfer a call.

  • I would like to be able to text from our main office line rather than only my office direct line, so I can keep my direct line private
  • I wish it was easier for all users to be able to toggle between calls ringing at their desk phone and cell phone
  • It would be nice if the process to add other team member's numbers to our desk phone screen was easier

Genesys Cloud CX is a solid product and deserves to be in the upper right quadrant in Gartner. They are true innovators in the customer experience space and based on the innovation taking place monthly, they will likely stay in this spot. The product gains new features every time you blink your eyes.

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.

Reliability and Availability
Genesys
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.

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.

Alternatives Considered
Genesys
I worked in a much larger company when I used TotalView and it had been heavily customized for them (over 10 000 employees) so the comparison is a bit lopsided. I found TotalView quite intuitive but the features of Genesys Cloud CX certainly outweigh that one thing.

The user interface of the Ring Central Contact Center is much better than others. Also, the price and cost of implementing, using, and maintaining the product are comparatively lower than others. So, a maximum set of features according to the cost and price. Other than that, the training required for the team and the support agents is also not much required.

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
  • SLA improvement (thanks to better overview during real-time scheduling).
  • Better/easier work with multiskilled users which offers more possibilities to work with FTEs (less FTE needed).
  • One time big investment was needed for hardware (laptops, headphones) as we used to work on desktops previously.

RingCentral
  • The business is able to take on clients that need after hours assistance because we have a way to communicate
  • We are able to offer multiple forms of communication, which may attract more clients to our office
  • We don't have to purchase separate call recording technology as each user has a built in call recording system that all users can monitor for each other
