24sessions is perfect for appointments such as coaching (my use case) where you want them to be able to go into your booking calendar, choose a time and schedule the appointment - or to schedule it from your end. They they get an email on creation and reminder email. I find it not helpful or at least, not at all intuitive, for setting up a host created meeting immediately. You can create it so you can be live at anytime, but host created isn't as any to set up

It is well suited for Analytics, Customer Relationship Efficiency Engagement, and best suited to help decrease Infrastructure maintenance costs for Organizations. Learning for new bees is a little difficult to grasp with the features/functionalities. The Software is a little complex from the setup and configuration point of view. Reporting capability can be improved as it is a highly effective CRM.

  • SAP Service Cloud pulls together messages from different channels - emails, calls, social sites - into one dashboard. This means we can quickly see and respond to any customer question or concern without jumping between different tools.
  • It streamlines our workload by automatically categorizing and prioritizing customer issues. This ensures that urgent banking matters are addressed immediately and no query is left unanswered.
  • The built-in knowledge base is a lifesaver. When a customer has a common question or issue, we can quickly reference or direct them to pre-existing solutions, speeding up the resolution process.

  • Integrating SAP Service Cloud with non-SAP systems can be challenging, i faced some hurdles when my IT team took 3 months to integrate the billing data from some other vendor and the system would run slow if you try to pull billing data
  • Slow loading of the pages as compared to other consumer tech softwares we use
  • Implementation costs and complexity of implementation makes it an option only for large enterprises with huge IT teams (and it can take a few months to implement)

I have found that sometimes issues reported to the SAP takes more time also they lack system support with respect to the priority . Also we don't see RCA for the issues raised. Also turn around time for the issues is not fixed as the support is global sometimes the issues float here and there.

I use 24sessions predominantly as I have large discount with it and it works for scheduling clients. The user interface is helpful for past meetings. 24sessions is click and go - no account or software is needed for the client. Zoom and Google Meet do have dial-in capabilities. Zoom is more widely known so potentially more trusted for clients, even though similar abilities. Zoom is more customisable in the call (turn off certain thing or on others). Google Meet is great for google account clients, but a surprising number don't have Google accts I've found.

We went with SAP Service Cloud instead of Oracle Cloud Platform because it is like a custom-made tool for big companies, seamlessly working with our other systems. It helps us manage complex tasks and customer interactions better, making everything smoother and more efficient. It just fits well with how we do things.

Return on Investment
MessageBird
  • Easy video calling for scheduled appointments has meant customer retention as they don't need specific software etc to have a call.
  • Negative impact whilst our internet has been slow as I've been unable to use the product well as dial in to the call using a phone option.
  • Emails reminders has meant more clients turning up for the calls leading to retained income and happier customers.

  • positive impact: Enhanced Productivity: The platform's automation and knowledge management capabilities can boost agent productivity. Agents can handle more cases in less time, leading to cost savings and potentially higher revenue through increased sales opportunities.
  • negative impact: Complexity: If not properly configured or if it doesn't align with an organization's specific needs, SAP Service Cloud's complexity can hinder user adoption, leading to inefficiencies and potentially negative ROI.
