Genesys PureConnect was much more customizable than the Genesys Cloud CX product. However it appears that Genesys is doing a good job of filling the gaps between the products and are extremely public with their plans for the Genesys Cloud CX product. The future looks great for Genesys Cloud CX.

Using Genesys Cloud CX

500 - Our entire organization uses the product. All the way from receptionists to the CEO. The people that use the product the most is certainly the contact center agents we have, but the flexibility that Genesys Cloud CX provides is certainly one of its strongest benefits. Web based phones make the system usable by anyone that is familiar with using Teams or Zoom.
2 - It certainly helps to have at least 2 people responsible for the product. At least one person focusing on the MACD (Move Add Change Deletes) and tier 1 support and another responsible for the management / engineering / architecting of the solution. The amount of reliance on a phone system make this system ultra critical.
  • Inbound Calls.
  • Outbound Calls.
  • Call Center Call and Email Routing.
  • Agent Performance Monitoring.
  • Connection to Microsoft Dynamics.
  • Chat Bot.
  • Using workspaces to create mini custom reports.
  • Additional channels of communication.
  • Media Fabric to other regions of AWS.
  • Voice and Chat Bots.
Genesys Cloud CX is a solid product and deserves to be in the upper right quadrant in Gartner. They are true innovators in the customer experience space and based on the innovation taking place monthly, they will likely stay in this spot. The product gains new features every time you blink your eyes.
