Pega is a very nice tool for when we need to deal with data coming from different sources that need to be connected and used collectively. Additionally, having an easy-to-use interface makes it ideal for building decision flow in a simple manner that can still take advance decisions for 1:1 communication.

Zoom Contact Center, like many other Contact Center platforms, is needed if you want very unique requirements that a Zoom Phone call queue cannot do. In my experience so far, there are very few things that Zoom Contact Center cannot do if you are trying to build a standardized contact center environment

Pros
Pegasystems
  • Easy to contact
  • Responds very quickly
  • Provides accurate information

Zoom
  • The dashboards are fantastic because we can see if an agent isn't logged in or if there are a lot of customers waiting in the queues—we've never had that visibility before. We didn't have data to look back and see if we had enough staff to support the load. That helps us so much, especially when we're budgeting for the next Festival.
  • The callback function saved us during last year’s festival. We had a street-wide internet outage during one of our busiest periods. But, in the time it took to fix the issue, Zoom Contact Center lined up callbacks. It was all so smooth. We didn’t need to trawl through voicemails or miss any queries - we could return everyone’s call within 30 minutes.
  • Integration with our Zoom Phone configuration provides a seamless experience when transferring calls to those not on the Contact Centre. We can do a Warm Transfer, too, so it's a very professional experience.

Cons
Pegasystems
  • Performance, as some of the tasks run in batch.
  • Extensibility could take time for complex functionalities.
  • At least the cloud version should be more powerful in terms of processing.

  • Too many bugs in logging, a consumer hangup may result in Overflow to disconnect, which is not even a behavior in our phone system; Zoom acknowledged the bug, took months to implement a fix, and it's still not fixed (TS0053591)
  • Logs are in two places, for instance, if a patient complains that they called 10x and no one called them back, we have to look at the logs in Zoom CC and Zoom Phone to get the full story of what happened. Concatenating log files is something I haven't done in at least 10 years, so strange that Zoom needs this.
  • Zoom Contact Center still has "bolt-on" feeling to it, needs to be more integrated—see logging issue above.
  • Reports are underwhelming and not easy to get to the data you need, which is different from the administration part of the contact center itself which is so fantastic. It feels like reports were designed by a different dev group, headed by someone who probably used to work at Mitel for years or somewhere where everything is cumbersome.
  • Zoom Glossary is large but still does not have all terms, which defeats the purpose of a glossary.
  • General Zoom support is now slow and underwhelming. It used to be fast and good, now they take forever and ask you the same questions multiple times and don't seem to fully understand answers. Feels like some McKinsey consultant decision from the 90s: ship support overseas to cheapen the cost and incentivize customers to pay for some higher tier of support where they will actually get support. I'd expect this from competitors, but disappointed to see it happen at Zoom. Our actual zoom support reps are very good, and this comment is about the general "contact Zoom support" inquiry form.

First and foremost for our results, the omnichannel approach and ease of use on the internal side (agents, supervisors and administrators) have made adoption very simple, we have managed to reduce response times (SLA) and internal communication has become very fluid. We get good feedback from our clients for having implemented ZCC in the company to serve them.

We have used different products those are ok but customer service is worst but Pega Customer Service is not like that tool and services both are doing excellent job

It is a good product that fits our needs, we considered using the Contact Center despite the fact of still lacking important capabilities (we think it is till s in its "toddler" age) because we see how rapidly Zoom builds their products and add functionality to it, and because we already are using Zoom Meetings, Phone and others, it just makes sense to use Contact Center because of the potential capabilities and integration; it just made sense, and so far so good, but only time will tell.

Zoom
  • We migrated away from a telephony system that was antiquated and almost unusable for what we wanted to do, so Zoom has been a huge improvement for us!
  • We're continuing to roll out new channels of contact for customers -- Calls, chat, video, email, etc.
  • We're still getting our sea legs from a reporting perspective, and that could always be better, but so far the biggest improvement was for our staff actually using the software. They really enjoy the simplicity and robustness of the software.
