Voice Engineer at Softtek
Enables seamless integration with leading customer support platforms and offers reliable and scalable communication solutions
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.

Self-service access has reduced support tickets and improves secure remote management
The best feature I appreciate about Jamf for Mac is the self-service portal. The self-service portal is a collection of administrative tasks that a user can complete when they want or how they want, which helps me and my users. It does not require an IT or security person to intervene every time, and it functions as a just-in-time activation of a particular rule. For example, if a user needs admin privileges for thirty minutes to install a program, the self-service portal can accomplish that easily, so an IT person does not have to be present every time software installation is needed. The remote wipe and remote lock features are also very good, as they secure the endpoint quite well. The integration with Apple Business Manager is seamless and works very well. Jamf for Mac has positively impacted my organization by making the installation and management of my user base and endpoints quite easy and effective. Jamf for Mac has saved me time, improved security, and reduced the number of support tickets. It has made my life easier by managing Mac endpoints on a remote basis, significantly reducing my support tickets, and increasing my visibility from a security perspective. I can obtain audit logs from Jamf to track user activities. The Jamf dashboard gives me a complete overview and inventory of whatever services are running or whatever applications are installed on an endpoint, which makes my life significantly easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Setting up a call center and onboarding agents is easy using Amazon Connect."
"Amazon Connect is easy to learn."
"Amazon Connect is really simple, straightforward, and very flexible."
"Amazon Connect is an integrated solution, which is attractive because a customer doesn't have to worry about which product to buy; they buy one product and that gives them everything."
"The solution reduces the overall cost of migration by approximately 50%."
"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."
"The product is cloud-based and easy to operate. We have a broad integration capability, allowing for a multitude of integrations. This gives our customers a good understanding of our product, even if they aren't actively utilizing it. They can easily access and utilize all the features that Amazon's cloud services offer, making integrating with other cloud platforms simpler. It's not a standalone solution, which is advantageous for our customers."
"Jamf for Mac has two features recently added: compliance and blueprint."
"Jamf for Mac has positively impacted my organization by making the installation and management of my user base and endpoints quite easy and effective."
 

Cons

"The product does not have any reporting dashboards."
"I would like to see a cold transfer capability instead of only offering a warm transfer."
"Amazon Connect could benefit from having flow blocks that do that naturally without having another company behind it supporting it."
"For enterprises to get maximum use, we often need a dialer system. or example – you have a list of people to call, you load it, and the system automatically dials and connects you without having to manually dial each number. That's the kind of automated outbound dialing feature."
"Support for Amazon Connect is adequate. I won't say it's exceptional about the support, but you can get assistance whenever it is needed."
"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."
"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."
"The tool needs to improve its bandwidth. When multiple users use Lambda functions, there can be timeouts from the Lambda function due to coding constraints. If it times out, the Lambda function fails and switches to an alternative branch. Improving bandwidth could address this issue."
"The integration with identity federation portals or IAM tools such as Okta can be improved."
"Another big issue for us is that when I have updated macOS from the software update, I cannot see the progress of how many systems are going to install for macOS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Amazon Connect has a pay-as-you-go model. But I have a slightly different perspective on it."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"The tool is cheaper than on-premise contact centers."
"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."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being the most affordable."
"The licensing is a pay-as-you-go model."
