Verint WFM
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use it for Forecasting, Scheduling, and Reporting on our phone staff. It helps us track productivity and address any shortages or scheduling issues with everything from Queue Analytics and Schedule Analysis to Reports. We use it for Adherence, Attendance, and staffing Allocations. We also use the stats for Training and sales.
Pros
- Tracks Data
- Integrates PTO, paid time, and productivity
- Duplicity allows different ways to meet needs, which helps with understanding and preferences.
Cons
- Training is expensive and hard to come by.
- They are very proprietary protective, we ask how to calculate an FTE and no one is allowed to say.
- They do not have easily created reports, just canned ones. Ad-hock are hard to create and are still outside of the system.
Likelihood to Recommend
Great for Forecasting phone data, not so good for integrating other products like Salesforce or New leaf.

Best WEM software on the market
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We are a Verint partner who resells, hosts and supports Verint software. In addition to that, our own internal support organization runs off of Verint's platform. We are effectively scheduling or employees to be available when work arrives, record and analyze their interactions and use Verint for all of their performance management tracking.
Pros
- Just works
- Easy to view and change your schedule
- Easy to see your performance metrics
- Easy to access and replay interactions
Cons
- Data synchronization. Moving from one area of the product to another to another to another vs. having one centralized location for the information. This causes delays with data availability and complicates support,
Likelihood to Recommend
Being able to schedule employees easily. Making the agents experience with the application dead simple which encourages their usage and adoption which makes it easier for agents to follow the planned schedule.

Verint WFM
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Utilize Verint Workforce Management tools to report to monitor and report on performance. Utilize Queue Analytics specially to detail daily and future outlook. Utilize reports to capture scheduled activities, adherence and net staffing.
Pros
- Reports - Net Staffing and Adherence
- Real Time Adherence View - Quick View
- Calendar View
Cons
- Reporting functionality in totals of hours and minutes
- Calendar View - click and drag feature to cover schedules is pretty difficult to use
Likelihood to Recommend
Well suited to view employee adherence in quick view. For new users it is difficult to view day details to identify minutes vs. hours. vs. secs
Adherence tracking and mapping
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Previousl<span style="font-size: 1rem;">y we were using a Word document to schedule about 60 people.This solution helped us be more efficient in our scheduling time. The amount of time it took us to create schedules decreased and gave the agents more flexibility and autonomy with their own schedule.</span>
Pros
- Create various types of shifts
- Adherence tracking
- Adherence mapping
Cons
- Utilizing the schedule to approve or deny vacation request
- The ease of creating shifts and work patterns
- Intraday scheduling changes
Likelihood to Recommend
It is great for channels that you have directly integrated into the Verint platform. For example we love having our phone system directly integrated into it Verint. It is harder to forecast in schedule when you do not have a direct integration opportunity.
Increase forecast accuracy
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Verint WFM to schedule staff, forecast volumes and workloads. We use Verint WFM to also schedule time off, monitor queue performance and results. Additionally, we export a lot of agent and queue performance data from Verint WFM. We use WFM reporting functionality and real time dashboards within the application.
Pros
- Adherence Management
- Verint Connect documentation
Cons
- The ability to add requests to the system via an API would be amazing.
- Would like full suite of reporting for WFM in Data Insights Bot
Likelihood to Recommend
It is really well suited for almost all WFM use cases. The biggest missing feature in Verint WFM is the ability to add a request via an API or external tools. This has caused me so much pain for years, making it harder to migrate to Verint WFM and also limiting automation capabilities. Even today we are wanting to build an IVA for our agents to request time off, and we have to write all request logic in the IVA rather than posting the request via an API, and letting the WFM logic decide not he request. It's a huge limitation.
Clear user interface for users
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Verint for call recording and workforce management. These applications allow us to listen to our agents calls and provide coaching as well as manage our contact center staff.
Pros
- Clear user interface for users
- Management of team meetings
- Viewing all staff signed in at a quick glance
Cons
- Manipulating multiple exceptions at the same time
- Report functionality and customization to be able to report on anything within the system
- Log tracking to be able to hold log data further in the past for tickets
Likelihood to Recommend
Verint does well in managing a small to medium sized business that don't often have exceptions that move frequently. If the lines of business are much larger and have a lot of moving exceptions Verint struggles to allow bulk movement of exceptions.
Struggles is still getting a valid multi skilled forecast.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
To schedule employees and maintain schedules. Get staffing models together. Review performance of the staff.
Struggles is still getting a valid multi skilled forecast.
Pros
- We work with GEC for integration so it makes answering this question more difficult.
Cons
- Explaining forecasting and how to create multi skilled forecasting that would make sense.
Likelihood to Recommend
Less appropriate is back office scheduling without the purchase of other products.
