Overall Satisfaction with Five9
Our company work is in healthcare awareness and uses Five9 to contact patients regarding their prescription usage and results. Clients have live interaction with pharmacy techs and/or pharmacists depending on the questions or their needs.
Pros
- predictive dialing
- call routing to agents
- IVR call flow
Cons
- text-to-speech for IVR voice prompt
- basic account-level reporting
- features that are included instead of ala cart
- overpriced for the features compared to competitors
- lost discounts due to downsizing of the company
- offers beta programs for certain software integration at no cost
Five9 has a great learning curve, whether you're an admin, agent, or supervisor. Each role can be easily learned and mastered.
Cost was a major factor back when Five9 was the only stable and reliable contact center solution. But now they tend to be overpriced compared to Genesys and Nice, which are just as good, if not better than Five9 currently.
