Unified communication has reduced global calling costs and supports organized departmental workflows
The best features that DIGITAL CX offers are making international calls, the chat functionality, and the fax capability. We still use fax as some institutions require fax documentation to be sent to us. Adding users is very easy, and the setup is straightforward. The support from RingCentral is exceptional. The international calling capabilities and low costs are outstanding. DIGITAL CX has positively impacted my organization through cost reduction. Currently, we do not assign direct lines to most users. We have very few direct lines, and the cost is much lower by simply creating extensions and only authorizing certain users to make international calls. Last year we started making the adjustment, and we reduced costs from 4,000 dollars to 2,000 dollars in just a couple of months.

Centralized social monitoring has unified our branding and drives data-driven engagement decisions
The best features Sprout Social offers include the compose tool for social posts, reporting and analytics, and content management.What I appreciate most about the compose tool and the reporting and analytics features is that it helps to track engagements and other analytics and track social campaigns so that we are able to make data-driven decisions easily. I would add that social listening and explaining the spikes and the drops, a friendly user interface and easy to understand, great customer care integration, and statistics for organic social are also important features. Sprout Social has positively impacted my organization by saving time and increasing engagement. We have definitely streamlined our output and allowed us to access metrics, content performance, and engagement all within a few clicks, which improved our productivity in my organization by 20%.

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

Pros

"RingCentral has a good implementation of voice over IP and is easy to use, enabling a range of VoIP functions."
"DIGITAL CX has positively impacted my organization through cost reduction; last year we started making the adjustment, and we reduced costs from 4,000 dollars to 2,000 dollars in just a couple of months."
"Sprout Social has saved us a lot of time, provided the convenience of a single login to multiple socials, and requires less time for training, making it very easy to use and start using it."
"One of the biggest advantages of Sprout Social is its user-friendly dashboard and clear visual reports, which make it easy to interpret data and present insights to clients."
"In my experience, the best features Sprout Social offers are the ability to manage multiple campaigns."
"Sprout Social is the best; it is very good, actually, because I have used Intercom and Zendesk, but when I look at the different software I have used as a customer service agent, I would go for Sprout Social as it is more complete and easy to navigate."
 

Cons

"I believe DIGITAL CX could be improved by making certain menus easier to find."
"Pricing on RingCentral can be confusing due to numerous surcharges and fees, making it important to consider all fees for a true comparison with other services."
"RingCentral could improve by incorporating more advanced AI functionalities, as Zoom currently has AI integrated across their products."
"Sprout Social can be improved because the user experience of having hundreds of channels to navigate can be quite fiddly, especially when trying to bulk post."
"As of now, I have been using Sprout Social for almost two years, but there are some glitches in the back-end; sometimes the posts are not integrated or do not come with the proper details, proper dates, or proper content."
"If you do not already have existing solutions and you are using the platform to help schedule out marketing campaigns, it will not be that helpful."
