Contextualized collaboration on records allows you to have historical conversations that are accessible by other users.
Chatter is a great way to connect your users, especially if your team is working in multiple time zones or locations. If you're struggling with why to use collaboration tools at all, I'd suggest you watch this video. One the best examples that I've seen is a property team who were managing the entire process from leasing properties with branding to shop merges via Salesforce. All of their notifications were email-based and they were getting 100s per day. By moving these alerts to automated posts into particular groups, the users could not only access multiple updates by using digests instead of per alert, but also choose to control who (group members) and how often they get those alerts.

Crowdsourced knowledge has grown into a trusted customer hub and now supports richer adoption journeys
One inconvenience is that because we are crowdsourced, we have hundreds of contributors every year, with most people only submitting one article, maybe two, so it does not make sense to pay for licenses for all of those people. This leads to some intermediary manual copy-paste processes because we just cannot have everybody working in the system itself, making it a little bit problematic for maintaining a source of truth. The main issues with NICE CXone are the lack of ability to integrate with some internal things that we want to do; it has to do with the way the system is designed, which is complex. We wanted to integrate with our internal system for instant translations, and we were not able to do that, along with a couple of other things that illustrate that it is kind of an isolated system to itself, making it pretty hard to tap into and grow even further. There are a couple of little issues with reporting that have not been very good, but really, the system is very functional.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The conversation function to engage different groups is the most valuable feature."
"It helped us to strengthen our digital community all over the world with a dedicated group to share project information and best practices."
"Salesforce being the number one cloud-based CRM product, I think one can recommend it in the first go."
"It offers more than what you are looking for, for example, file sharing and "mentions"."
"Salesforce Chatter allows for contextualized collaboration on records that allows you to have historical conversations, which are easily accessible by other users."
"It is now possible to share information instantly with all the company without sending emails, but also looking for a topic using the search function."
"I love the streaming feed of information from the people that I'm following that encourages collaboration at a business level."
"The initial setup of NICE CXone was straightforward and easy for our team, as the implementation team we worked with was very good at what they did."
"If you are wondering if you or your company should use NICE inContact, I would suggest reaching out to them and asking for a demonstration."
"I have found the ease of use of the ACD to be most valuable along with the inView dashboard."
"NICE CXone has impacted my organization positively by empowering managers, team leaders, and supervisors to be more autonomous and to proactively manage their team in real time."
"NICE CXone has had a HUGE impact on our contact center, taking us from a place where we had no visualization on contact volumes, handle times, ASA, etc. to a place where we have full visualization on all metrics and can manage and staff our center as necessary."
"We are able to see the calls in queue and able to see if someone is available or not."
"The agent list is the most valuable feature because we are able to see what each person is doing."
"Customer support is terrific. The team is personable, informed, and responsive."
 

Cons

"Chatter invites should be possible from the UI on opportunity records."
"The storage of documents was quite limited when we used the tool."
"I would rate the technical support a 7/10 because Salesforce has its own way of looking at technical issues and sometimes takes its own time to implement or release changes as per their convenience."
"Live consumption of the communication needs to be improved so that it can offer more features similar to Twitter/Slack, such as a live rolling news feed, notification bells (to avoid email alerts), ability to share multiple files or actions in one post, etc."
"I wish an organization could create a company-wide Chatter that automatically follows everyone else in the company so that widespread access was guaranteed."
"We would not select them again."
"My advice to others looking into using NICE CXone is that it is an expensive product with a lot of guardrails on it."
"With lots of screenshots to be replaced when we perform a service release, this is pretty tedious work."
"A better approach would be to have built-in routing capabilities for scenarios such as routing by area code to different agents, rather than having to build this functionality with snippets."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while."
"Occasionally, the system runs slow and will kick us out of Max, which then has to be restarted, and can cause issues as our call center deals with time sensitive phone calls."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while. For example, if I have a dashboard open that shows how many calls are in queue and how many are currently being handled by agents, sometimes a call that an agent is handling will get stuck on the dashboard after the agent ends the call and the dashboard will show that the call is still a live call. Our tech team has explained this to us as a ghost call. After some time (or maybe many screen refreshes) the call will go away like it has just ended."
"I ran into many issues with data integrity, forecast accuracy, cross-skilling and cross-utilization of agents, and net staffing reports."
"If you have hundreds of books, the initial download is slow."
