Zoom Contact Center helps businesses deliver prompt, accurate, and highly personalized customer experiences that drive loyalty. It includes intelligent self-service and routing, a unified communications and contact center, and video optimized high-touch engagements.
Rasa Pro is well suited for corporate use and for chatbots which require backend connections. Smaller chatbots with a few flows might be better served with a simple dialogue engine and custom AI agents, or Rasa Open Source. Rasa does not come with its own complex vector database, just in-memory FAISS and connectors to external vector DB's such as Milvus and Qdrant. It provides only a basic document parser and embedder for FAISS. If you need to build a RAG focused chatbot around a large knowledge base with complex documents, e.g. lots of MS Word or PDF files, you'll have to build a separate document parser and embedder, as well as your own semantic search engine
This tool has allowed us to identify each user's needs using different communication channels. It has also enabled us to establish a direct point of contact with Zoom's technical support by allowing us to document and escalate each situation requiring specialized assistance, which is the main reason we chose Zoom. I would recommend it to any colleague or company because it offers a wide variety of tools, and now with AI integration, the level of service has improved significantly.
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.
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.
With the help of dedicated team - documentation and video resources it is relatively easier to build. We prioritized pro-code usage to begin with launch.
It is rare to have to explain a lot to a user on how to use Zoom Contact Center. It makes sense, provides plenty of options without being overbearing, and we have rarely had issues come back that I need to regularly change or update to accommodate things like bugs or design issues
Rasa support has been very responsive, trying to fix any reported issues ASAP. They've also listened to many requests for improvement. The Rasa features and changelog are well documented
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.
We were able to cut our communication costs significantly and gain features we could have only dreamed of prior.
The contact center platform is head and shoulders above some of their competitors. This allows our team to quickly assist our customers with their questions and concerns.
