(201-225 of 407)Genesys Cloud CX good CC software platform
- Easy to manage.
- Intuitive.
- Cloud.
- API call limitation.
- Soft phone development.
- Email channel.
Superb UI makes adoption a breeze
- Browser-based (no need to install/update apps).
- Simple and intuitive UI for agents.
- Outstanding admin interface makes it easy to build call flows.
- The reporting could be more robust and customizable.
- The mobile app sometimes forgets your credentials.
- User groups cannot receive inbound faxes. Only individual users can.
Genesys Cloud, the contact center of the future!
- It has the best user interface
- Fast and easy deployment
- Open platform for fast integrations
- End-to-end omnichannel management
- You can clear campaigns from API but it should be a button for supervisors
- Supporting arrays and tables on agent scripting could be a good improvement
Perfect solution for fast in the cloud deployment
- Soft Phones.
- Skill Based Routing.
- IVR and Telephone trees.
- Recording features.
- Password expiration alerts and policies.
The Genesys team is worth investing time in
- Configuration tools to build call flows and determine number routing.
- Responding to customer queries and problems on their help website.
- The initial build and set up by the professional team was knowledgeable and extremely efficient.
- Needs greater flexibility in its org/division separation to allow for more customisation based on business needs.
- Easier bulk amendment tools for user profiles and attributes.
- Better instructional material on their resource website -- some of it is out of date or difficult to follow without a background in call management.
Genesys Cloud reports boom
- Ease of Service
- Although feature limited with respect to routing it offers many other usable feature
- Great reporting feature. there are plenty of templates that provides detailed reporting.
- Better reporting
- Ease of agent desktop we don't need to go for third party desktop application
- Great inbuilt callback feature where EWT is out of question
Multi country deployment
- Easily accessible from anywhere at any time for both agents and admins.
- Platform can easily handle multiple languages.
- Single Contact Centre platform to handle voice, webchat, email, SMS channels.
- We are about to deploy Intent Miner and a bot to automate some chat handling, this looks like it'll be easy to publish.
- A granular restriction between divisions so that the platform could be divided into tenants is a must. It's a roadmap item but it's been badly needed by us from day one.
- More detailed audits/logs surfaced to platform admins is required. We are blind about a lot of platform activity.
- Webchat is quite basic. Web messenger should improve this, but we are waiting on a lot of features that we had with previous chat platforms.
[One of] the business problems that Genesys Cloud addresses is that it provides a more robust call center than we were previously utilizing, which is a must during the COVID pandemic where we are seeing increased call volume and the need for hybrid work environments.
- Extremely customizable setup with endless possibility of integrations and call flows.
- Fantastic API with a plethora of documentation as well as built in test modules right in the documentation.
- Customizable dashboards that users can set up to their liking and get all of the information they require for monitoring of users in one place.
- Reporting is very canned and not at all customizable. This makes simple data extract[ion] a tedious proposition that requires utilization of the API.
- Some documentation is out of date and/or difficult to find depending on the topic which can lead to difficulties in initial setup.
- Core telephony support is easy to use and manage.
- APIs exist for a huge majority of app functionality
- Support is responsive when we have issues or questions.
- Documentation is not as easy to search as other applications
- Seems like frequent slowdowns or issues with any non-critical service
- Terminology in the tool is not always obvious where to find
- Very easy to configure as an administrator.
- Even easier to use for the end users.
- Frequent updates with just a refresh needed to apply them.
- Support isn't great.
- Still young, so it's missing a few features, although they are starting to fill the gaps.
- Some things aren't customizable as, being a cloud solution, it can be a bit one size fits all in some respects.
- Small to medium call center environments where IVRs & queues are required.
- Corporate environment instead of a PABX. Useful for communicating around the business and handling incoming calls even without the need for queues and flows.
Less Appropriate
- Very large environments where massive amounts of features are required. This will change over time as more features are added.
Enabled our staff to work from anywhere
- Rapid speed of deployment
- Access from any location (provided there is an available Internet connection)
- Scalability to rapidly handle peaks
- App foundry components are a bonus where non-standard features are required
- Chatbot plugins and predictive routing provide excellent functionality
- Email management and reporting could be better
- Email campaign management would be a plus
- Email content searching could be better
Genesys Cloud delivers
- Reliability
- Scalable
- Cloud-based work-from-anywhere.
- Screen pops and CRM integration.
- More ringtones needed: Only one provided and it gets very irritating when in an office.
- Email interactions function needs refining.
Contact center in a cloud box
- Calls and digital interactions transfer capability
- User friendly with smart UX
- Easy to understand and support
- Easy to integrate with (RESTful APIs and SDKs)
- Powerful CLI (Command Line Interface) feature
- Agents gamification feature, which increases the productivity of the contact center
- Continuous improvements and updates
- Outbound
- Call disconnection experienced
- Callback callflows
- Use artificial intelligence in the right parts
- IVR technology with natural sound and conveying a good feeling to customers
- Ability to make free online voice calls through the browser with support
- Ability to insert voice messages and convert [them] to text and system recognition by sending appropriate responses to the customer
Genesys Cloud - Easy, reliable solution
- Reliability: This solution boasts a constant uptime and it uses a website to prove and display which services are up and running.
- Simplicity: Designing and administering call routing is simple and easy with the Architect interface.
- Mobility: With both the web app, the desktop app, and the mobile app, Genesys provides a way to connect on the go, or in the case of emergency.
- Headset compatibility: There's not exactly a list of compatible headsets, so we had to find working models through trial and error. Thankfully this seems like a one time problem.
- Mobile app: The mobile app is extremely basic, and needs a lot of work. Ideally this app would allow agents to use a web phone, but currently it only allows forwarding to the cell phone.
- Transferring: For some reason, there is not a clearly labelled way for agent to conference in another line. We figured out how to do it eventually, but it should be much simpler.
It's not as appropriate if you are looking for a solution that contains a CRM. The contacts function of Genesys is very basic, and doesn't allow searching in most cases. If you have a lot of clients, it would be better to use an external CRM, or choose a program that can integrate with Genesys.
- Ease of use.
- Ability to work from anywhere.
- Reporting on calls received.
- Ability to have multiple queues.
- You can see peoples status easily.
- We can see which of our customers are calling.
- Has the ability to show your customer journey.
- Their email functionality is very basic.
Easy, Quick and Intuitive
- Very Intuitive
- Allows for easy, high quality calls with our clients
- Creating tiers for the queue allowing for calls to go to the right people.
- Reporting
- Monitoring Calls
- Whisper Mode
- Receiving and transferring calls.
- Call Reports.
- Easy to use.
- Voicemails at hand.
- Missed calls notifications.
- Three-way calls.
The only scenario that I can say that I have had trouble with is when making a three-way phone call and then trying to transfer this three-way call to another colleague. Still haven't figured out how to successfully do this.
Useful and Functional
- Visual page.
- Intuitive personalization.
- Easy [to] learn functions.
- Download recordings.
- Pages freeze.
- Error in the recordings.
Happy to be connected
- Seeing the voicemails and selecting the one I want is extremely helpful.
- The fact that it can work on any computer without additional interface is nice.
- The directory allows for storing additional numbers.
- If there is a hiccup in the connection, I frequently have to refresh Genesys. If not, my headset will not work.
- If the computer screen goes into power saver move (the computer is still running), the audio will drop.
- Transcribed voicemails would be helpful.
The platform itself is intuitive and easy-to-use. It's relatively simple - even for the rookies in our team - in terms of learning how to navigate & use, with documentation & FAQs readily accessible. Lastly, the connectivity and quality of both incoming & outgoing calls is really good, with none to minimal lags on any conversations. With configuration options also relatively easy to find and adjust, voice recognition features are quite advanced and improve usability.
- Tabulation of staff performance results.
- Management reports & analytics.
- Automated task management.
- Would welcome more report customization features & options.
- More robust data lineage validation.
- In-the-moment response options (emergency calls vs. chats).
For any remote connectivity and configuration scenarios, Genesys is quite easy to access and set up - as well as the built-in interactive voice response (IVR). The customer service representatives are a great resource and very responsive - much appreciated gesture that often gets overlooked in this particular software niche. The team is very knowledgeable, available on a moment's notice and is generally quite accommodating of any needs.
Review of Genesys phone system from a daily user
- Makes easy checking voicemails
- Great qualify on sound
- Easy use of platform
- The use of the number pad to integrate to the dialer on the call
- Availability of devices being switched without having log out and in afterwards
- Better sound for the receiver of the call
Genesys Cloud - Didn't live up to the hype
- Inbound calls.
- Role based access.
- Outbound calls.
- Campaigns.
- Email handling.
- Support.
- Sticking to roadmap.
The support is also abysmal, we have not had a good experience trying to get quality support from Genesys.
One of the key components we were sold on when purchasing PureCloud was the ability to selectively pick emails from the queue and were told it was on the roadmap. Three years later we are still told it is on the roadmap and nothing has ever been done about it.
With Genesys Cloud you will build a customer experiences that boost your brand’s reputation.
- The ability of transferring the calls, WhatsApp messages and Emails to a specific agent to follow up with the client.
- Friendly user interface and software.
- Updates all the time
- The flexibility of reaching technical support team.
- Genesys Development Project for WhatsApp platform will allow users to view and save audio and video files sent by the client.
- Allowing Agents to communicate easily while on or off queue.
- Genesys has an E-Learning for the users to make sure all agents are up to date.
Keep connected with Genesys Clould.
- Stable connection.
- Fast and efficient.
- Easy to use.
- None - it is perfect.
When I want to transfer a client, with the click of a button I can easily do so.
