Verint Knowledge Management aim to help agents find and share the information needed to answer both customer inquiries and questions they may have themselves. The solution helps ensure the answers agents access are consistent, up to date, and easily accessible.
ProProfs Knowledge Base is ideal for businesses that want to improve their customer support process, make agents more knowledgeable and productive, induct new employees, or manage their internal business knowledge. We used it mainly for our customer support function, and we are satisfied with the performance. The best part is it scales as a team or business grows. When we started using this tool, we had a support team of 10 members, and now it has expanded to 25. But the knowledge base is still working as efficiently as before. It has the capability to accommodate a large amount of data with ease.
Verint KMS is great for organizing content by categories for different teams and by different topics. It is easy to search and the Related Content makes moving from one piece of content to the next relevant piece quite easy. On the authoring side, the ability to schedule publishing or expiration is very handy. It is also really easy to make edits and have content ready and published for readers quickly. Verint's KMS isn't well suited if your users wish to be able to organize their favourited content or if you need a wide-range of options on the authoring end of things.
It helps in creating an internal knowledge base that employees from different teams can access to find and share information.
Creating a customer support knowledge base is quite simple with this software. The customization and branding options it has have helped in giving the knowledge base a professional and appealing look.
Its conditional content feature allows setting specific conditions that control content visibility. This helps in restricting or allowing access to a page.
The tools to submit and manage user feedback are very effective - they help us respond quickly and interconnect the feedback to the applicable content.
The end user experience is clean and feels familiar, making it optimal to support a group of people who generally have never experienced a KM application before.
Our audience responds well to our ability to insert images, GIFs, videos, PDFs, and more into our content.
The product is good as it is. We don’t feel that any significant changes are needed. But, yes, we would definitely love to see a more advanced version of the product soon.
The authoring side could be improved with additional options for fonts and easier formatting for table content. I have issues with trying to add colour to one portion of a table and not the other, so I have to resort to creating in Word first and then copying over to Verint. There is also no option to create steps in one row and the next step in the next row. I end up just adding 1., 2., etc. manually.
Many users would like to be able to organize their bookmarks into folders and the system doesn't allow this. Many have taken to creating bookmark folders in Microsoft Edge instead.
There were a few bugs that went on for a few months that made the initial launch of the KMS more difficult for the users and on the authoring side. The issues were with how the search results came up and what displayed for related content. It wasn't the best first impression for our agents using the system while on calls and made it more difficult. The issues were fixed after a few months of use.
Using this tool is a no-brainer, as we said before. Its features are simple yet powerful. Besides, the product’s self-help documentation is also great. It has got some great videos on specific features and use cases. Those were of real help in the initial few days.
Verint KM has many features that - when used the 'right way' can expedite search, content usage, and maintenance. Unfortunately, not all end users want to be bothered with 'the right way' and are looking for simplistic and predictive options (which any KM solution would be hard-pressed to deliver).
Whenever we had any issues while using the product or understanding a feature, its support team was always available. They helped us get familiar with the product and make the most of it in the initial few days itself. Its support team was literally a phone call or a message away. Very supportive and available 24x7.
The support and development teams for Knowledge are exceptional. They are attentive and truly care about the experience of their customers and their goals
We found ProProfs Knowledge Base more user-friendly and well-designed than the other similar tools we tried in the past. It also offers better integrations with software like Google Analytics, Zendesk, Google Translate, Freshdesk, Wufoo, and many others. That’s what gave this tool an edge over others. We can integrate it with any tool we want and expand its capabilities to gain better results.
All of these tools were very useful and practical. For our decision, it came down to understanding our core audience - we determined our average associate was largely unfamiliar with call center and office work in their prior work experience, and as such they would not have previously worked in a KM application before. To help adoption, we sought the solution with the simplest and most familiar interface, and based on internal focus group feedback, that was Verint KM Pro.
Content is easier to keep up to date and publish on an urgent basis.
Some users love the system, while others still find it difficult to find the information they need and miss the former guides we used. I think this is a result of the system issues that persisted for a few months after launch and will hopefully improve with time.
Users love being able to submit feedback and it makes it easier for errors, missing information and out of date information to be caught and fixed.
