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.

Jamf School is so easy to use. Perhaps because I have been in the technology field for so long, it did not take a lot of training, and the training that Jamf does is amazing. The documentation and behind-the-scenes support is great. There is not really much I would say I would want to see improved. If I had to think of even a small area where Jamf School could be improved, I think some of our more experienced users that know how to do custom scripting would appreciate it because we do have techs that also use Jamf Pro that get to that custom scripting, and sometimes in Jamf School, there is not really that same layer. If there was something they could do a little bit more to allow those that do have the capabilities to do some of that, that might be useful. It is also that Jamf School is mostly an Apple-first platform, but as our campuses are growing and more Chromebooks are becoming available, it would be nice if Jamf School was as good with the other platforms versus just Apple products. Regarding app requests within Jamf School, I would appreciate it if there was something in there that would make it easier for the teachers to request apps more effortlessly. Instead of back-and-forth emails, if there was a direct feature for a teacher's app request, it would help. We have not really used that very much. Teachers can browse it, and maybe we are just not using it to the greatest ability, but as long as that app request feature was very easy for teachers to use, we would get more app requests quickly instead of them having to create help tickets.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The stability of the application and the services of Amazon Connect is very good, especially when it integrates with Lex, making the customer service solution more efficient."
"There is no technical experience needed to build it. It's easy for beginners to understand and use."
"Amazon recently launched a new service within Amazon Connect called Workforce Management (WFM). Only a few companies like NICE and Genesys offer comparable WFM solutions. Amazon Connect's WFM features are robust, allowing for agent scheduling, tracking their status (on call, on leave, on break, etc.)."
"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."
"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."
"In my experience, one of the tool's most valuable features is its ease of use. Setting up a contact center can be done in just a few minutes with a few clicks. This contrasts with the hours or days it might take using other solutions."
"Jamf School has achieved 70 to 90% time savings through automated enrollment and Wi-Fi certificates, which represents 90% less time on provisioning and ongoing device management."
"The solution protects all our Apple products like iPads and MacBooks."
"It was straightforward to initially deploy it."
"Many features of Jamf School, including automated device enrollment, have helped us manage multiple devices."
"Jamf School has positively impacted my organization by reducing the hands-on touch of all the devices in all the classrooms, allowing our teachers to do more instruction, keeping students safe and focused, and giving them a more efficient learning space with exactly the educational apps they need when they need them."
"The most valuable features of Jamf School are exceptional, as it is amazing to manage the entire iPad fleet while pushing applications and controlling student safety, which is a concern we take seriously."
"The overall usage is the most valuable, and it's a clear upgrade from our previous system."
 

Cons

"Support for that specific service for Amazon Connect is basically non-existent."
"We have faced many challenges with the solution's call quality that could be improved."
"There are issues on features like Lambda integrations and time-out"
"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."
"There is room for improvement in certain areas of Amazon Connect. For example, regarding holiday scheduling, the platform lacks a specific feature to declare holidays for companies on fixed dates. While basic hours and weekly schedules can be set, there's no option for declaring specific dates like national holidays. Basic scheduling options exist, but users must rely on Lambda functions for more complex rules and logic."
"For a company with technical resources, it's a great tool. But for someone who wants a pre-packaged solution where everything is ready to use with some customization, it's a little more challenging."
"The product does not have any reporting dashboards."
"Amazon recently released a new feature called 'Customer Profiles.' It's intended to be similar to Salesforce. However, feature-wise, it isn't equivalent to Salesforce yet."
"If I had to think of even a small area where Jamf School could be improved, I think some of our more experienced users that know how to do custom scripting would appreciate it because we do have techs that also use Jamf Pro that get to that custom scripting, and sometimes in Jamf School, there is not really that same layer."
"The product must improve its price."
"Having everything centralized would be a preferable update."
"There is room for improvement with the security aspects, like scripting."
"Jamf Safe Internet also needs some improvement because it is very technical."
"If you start the system update in Jamf School, you cannot stop it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is neither very expensive nor very cheap."
"The licensing is a pay-as-you-go model."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"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 tool is cheaper than on-premise contact centers."
"Amazon Connect has a pay-as-you-go model. But I have a slightly different perspective on it."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being the most affordable."
"The pricing of the Amazon is reasonable compared to other cloud providers."
"Jamf School is an expensive solution."
