Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
Khoros Care is great for quick responses on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, which are our three most used platforms. Based on what I have seen, it would be better to have a more in-depth review module that allows for better response capability. Right now, it seems that Khoros Care only allows us a bird's eye view of sentiment and issues, versus handling all responses across various review platforms.

As I said before, I really enjoyed being a supervisor. This helps me help my customer support agents when they call. I can listen and give real-time feedback to the agent on difficult calls or take over the call directly if needed.
The Niza application solves the IVR contact center needs of a support organization. They are competitively priced and we feel we are getting good value for money.

Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
  • Manages and pulls in posts from communities, Facebook, and Twitter so we can address them in one place as opposed to logging into each site natively.
  • Khoros Care has great analytics. I like the customizable dashboards; we use them for weekly reports to upper management.
  • Khoros Care helps our social media manager manage and monitor our teams.

Cons
Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
  • More options to customize the default templates for the smart views in analytics or the pre-made one for work queues and agents
  • Automated and customized exports from analytics without the need to use APIs
  • More granular priorities or prioritization methods (like a point system)
  • More metrics to prioritize conversations with, like answer speed of the author, time waited since last answer, custom attributes, etc.

  • Occasionally the server will disconnect and we lose phone functionality.
  • Calls get "stuck" in the queue when they don't exist.
  • Can't remove commitments very easily when they are made.
  • Kicks you out after 2 hours. Making it annoying how you have to log back in.

Likelihood to Renew
Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
I don't see any reason why we would not renew. We have had a great overall experience, and other than some support concerns, everything has run smoothly. In addition to the platform, our experience with the bot has been really good. We average between 25-30% of our volume handled by the bot, while still maintaining easy-to-use offramps for customers.

Nice made it possible for employees to work from anywhere with access to the internet, it made it possible to extract data from contacts in a very thorough way. In addition, the meticaes can be fully customized and the day-to-day monitoring of the operation is more visible.With nice, contacts with clients abroad became easier.

Usability
Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
The ability to auto tag, manually tag, make notes, and "snooze" posts is extremely helpful. The efficiency of the work flow for agents is also a huge plus. It keeps agents moving quickly and prioritizing responses for the cases that need it most.

Things could be improved, such as call history and a user-friendly UI. Besides that, it was a great way to track and manage our team remotely, which changed the game for us post-covid. Everything else was pretty simple to use whether it was answering calls, dialing a customer, or leaving a voicemail. Overall, everything is very straightforward.

NICE inContact CXone performs very well even on old computers that are limited in resources. I use a older computer with limited memory and it seems to handle NICE inContact CXone very well in most cases. There will be times when it acts up for whatever reason bust over ninety percent of the time.

Support Rating
Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
Khoros [Care (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)] has made several improvements to its support and engagement for clients. Response times have improved and the need to seek support has drastically reduced, highlighting the improvements in the experience to reduce customer pain.

inContact only allows specific users to contact them for support. Even though I use the product daily and it accounts for a large amount of my workload, I still have to contact an authorized user to create an incident. These users are managers and their schedules are very busy. This can result in delays in incidents being opened and resolved.

Implementation Rating
Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
The implementation was very easy! They work diligently to ensure that everything that you want to monitor is put into one place eliminating the worry of missed interactions and as needs change the ability to edit what's being searched for is quick and easy to set up.

In spite of not having a relevant participation in the implementation process, I understand that the main insights are, internal tests before presenting to the final customer, this avoids the highest delay in the acquisition process, such as more frequent errors, tests that may mitigate the errors at the time of implementation.

Alternatives Considered
Khoros (Formerly Spredfast + Lithium)
We previously used Hootsuite. Hootsuite was very clunky for Customer Service, and oftentimes it would end up that agents would accidentally step over each other, send out multiple responses, or struggle to identify posts to work. Hootsuite was more intended for marketing and struggled at times with response. However, Khoros Care is a good balance of both, and also has tools specific to marketing versus customer service. Additionally, Khoros now has far more platforms than we previously had in Hootsuite.

Interactive Intelligence Cisco Express and Enterprise. InContact CXOne is very solid as a cloud platform and has great ease of use. However, it has areas of improvements to make it better, especially the Engage side of the company should be taken out of the stone age. Look at Calabrio's reliance and support as a benchmark for recordings.
