Featured Reviews

Everything is on one dashboard, from the dialer to the workflows for transferring calls and creating tickets
Some of our clients use intelligent virtual agents, but it depends on what the customer wants. It's primarily used in help desks where multiple departments like finance, sales, and IT share a phone number. They can use the agent to go directly to the department they want. Banking, finance, or insurance companies can also use it to authenticate their customers. You can use the element of Five9 to do a security check. The chatbots are helpful as a repository of information a customer frequently asks about. The customers can have their basic questions answered instead of talking to an agent. I like Five9's workflow automation features. You can integrate Five9 with the CRM in the center, like Salesforce. You can take the workflow features of something like HubSpot and add a voice element. The workforce optimization feature is free once you have a ZenDesk license. It's useful for HR teams and companies that need to plan shifts for many employees. People who work HR will tell you that workforce management is a headache because you are optimizing workers' time and efficiency. It makes the HR personnel's jobs a bit easier because it's all automated. It takes much of the work off their plates. They need to take into account things like holidays and sick leave.

Dhivakar I - PeerSpot reviewer
Have faced persistent configuration issues and performance delays that slow down large workflows
From a developer's perspective, it could be more open for programming language configurations. It is currently restricted to Groovy scripting. While UI and UX designs are open to JavaScript configurations, there are restrictions on certain functions that can be used. The solution could be enhanced to better serve customers when dealing with complex programs. The customer's websites face issues with loading properly, and response time gets longer when implementing larger workflows. This could be improved to achieve lower response times even with larger workflows involving multiple system integrations and complex architecture. The agent decay capabilities need improvement in future releases. Currently, there are some agent decay configurations available for developers to implement, but this area needs enhancement. Performance issues exist in the Sandbox area. The Sandbox is a trial area for configurations, but if work continues for a long time without publishing, it tends to get corrupted, requiring deletion and rework from the ground up. This has caused significant rework and effort multiple times. Technical support can be challenging to work with. When facing product-related issues or configuration problems, the support experience varies. Sometimes the technical support is knowledgeable and helpful, but often they redirect problems elsewhere and cause delays in resolution.
