  • integration with Netsuite
  • script creation is a buit confusing

  • Allowing you to track calls throughout the entire time from when they are presented to when they are ended
  • Post call surveys are very helpful
  • It would be nice if you were able to make changes directly in a queue rather than having to script it. When calls are transferred to a queue manually it bypasses any scripts and you have very little customization

  • The use of the chat function for quick issue resolution
  • Quick assistance when I've needed help finding a report
  • Excellent Dashboard functionality
  • When trying to pull a call for a particular time-you have to go into the journey map, rather than being able to see it right from the main screen in the Quality Managment

  • Continue to maintain a very reliable cloud PBX, this is super important because we rely on our contact centers to support our customers.
  • Listen to customers’ needs and try to implement these new features into their system.
  • Still waiting on 8x8 to improve their whisper feature per channel not per queue.
  • Waiting for them to merge 8x8 work and with VCC so it's single point of access to do all administrative work.
