These aspects add value for my customers who opt for cloud contact center solutions, whether from Cisco or other competitors.

"I rate the product's scalability a ten out of ten."
"The technical support for Cisco Webex Contact Center is high quality and I would rate it at least nine out of ten."

"Cisco technical support is outstanding."
"Genesys is brilliant concerning stability."
"What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's easier to use because everything is already built. Another valuable feature of Genesys Cloud is drag-and-drop."
"Predictive engagement and gamification are valuable features with good inbound functionality."
"What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's a complete cloud solution, so it's reliable and 99.99% available. It's also elastic. Genesys Cloud also has chatbots, which I find valuable."

"Its comprehensive single application includes everything from reporting to IVR and workflows."
"The latest version and updates have been great. It really has everything we need."
"Genesys Cloud CX has very good training material and training – instructor-led training, self-paced training, and documentation – things are very organized and helpful."
 

Cons

"It is not straightforward for beginners but is very straightforward for those familiar with it. It can be a little complicated for those who have not worked on it before."
"When comparing Cisco to free collaboration tools like Google Meet and Teams, often included with Microsoft licenses, some clients, particularly those not in the enterprise sector, might prefer the free or more cost-effective options."
"With the solution, I face issues when trying to use the screen share option."
"Cisco Webex Contact Center needs more improvements, especially as they lagged behind initially in adopting cloud technologies."

"AI still needs improvement when it comes to predictive engagement."
"The whole process of creating an agent is quite long and automating quite a bit of that would be very helpful."
"Their WFM product is still pretty immature."
"The tool's pricing could be more flexible, and there should be clearer indications of consumption and fair usage policies."

"Their WFM product is still pretty immature."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Genesys Cloud has pay-as-you-go pricing, so it's much cheaper than the on-premises solution. Apart from the standard fees, my company pays for Genesys support."
