The feature I find best about Amazon Connect, which is currently on trend, is the artificial intelligence. It helps us maintain continuity with the client. For instance, if a client calls for a ticket and calls again after three days, we can keep the same ticket or request to provide follow-up with the same agent or person. That is a valuable feature. Another important capability I discovered is that, from a technical perspective, you can select the caller ID in such a way that if one of your direct numbers fails, you can select another one to proceed with the calls. The system is not dependent on one calling number.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Ada offers agentic workflow as its best feature, providing the agent capability to personalize customer support and making customer success operations easier."
"We utilize Amazon Connect to handle customer service interactions, particularly in projects where we provide professional services. For example, when developing an application, we typically set up EC2 instances on AWS. Then, to facilitate communication within our clients' internal networks, we establish connections through Amazon Connect."
"The Connect Lens feature most improves contact center efficiency by providing insights into customer journeys, behavior, and sentiment scores, allowing for areas of improvement to be identified and addressed."
"The most helpful feature of Amazon Connect is Lex Bot, which is an inbuilt AI chatbot; it is very easy to develop a chatbot and the voice bot solution on Amazon Connect."
"What I like most is how well it integrates with other AWS services, the ease of implementation, and the robust partner network that supports it."
"The best thing about Amazon Connect is that it has everything we need in one place. With other products, we might have to get different tools for different jobs, like recording calls. However, with the tool, it's all there together. Plus, it's cheaper than other options."
"The features I found most valuable include CloudFormation, which helps use multiple stacks to deploy the services and features we want, and CloudWatch, which is useful for troubleshooting and monitoring various aspects of the contact center solution."
"What I appreciate best about Amazon Connect is its simplicity; you can easily set up a contact center solution within a couple of hours, which is extremely beneficial."
"The solution is easy to use and has no downtime. 99.9 percent of customers are happy with AWS cloud services. It is also easy to learn, but you need to practice daily."
 

Cons

"I would rate this product a 6."
"Future improvements could include support for email as a channel."
"The technical support from AWS is average.It is average because not every time I find a solution."
"Smaller organizations might prefer standalone products like Success KPI WFM or Genesys WFM. Adopting Amazon Connect necessitates using other AWS services, which could lead to higher-than-expected costs. So, the potential for unknowingly increased costs is a con."
"We have faced many challenges with the solution's call quality that could be improved."
"Amazon Connect should enhance its native agent desktop. Intuitive UI should be present for the agent desktop. Currently, it forces users to rely on third-party CRM integrations. Predominantly, there is no support for full-fledged customization for the native agent desktop. More customization options for the native desktop would be beneficial."
"However, issues that involve other AWS services sometimes delay resolution."
"There may be room for security improvement, especially since data is stored in the cloud. While cloud security measures are robust, there may be concerns about data safety compared to traditional server setups."
"Due to network issues, the agent desktop might be affected. If the firewall blocks the agent's desktop, connectivity might be disrupted."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing model is pay-as-you-go."
"The licensing is a pay-as-you-go model."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The solution is neither very expensive nor very cheap."
"I can't speak for the pricing of other contact center solutions, but in terms of Amazon Connect, compared to other AWS products, it's one of the more expensive options. However, the cost can be low if you have a smaller team of agents or receive fewer calls. Pricing is typically based on a per-user basis."
"The pricing of the Amazon is reasonable compared to other cloud providers."
"Amazon Connect has a pay-as-you-go model. But I have a slightly different perspective on it."
