Sr Specialist - Analytics Metrics and Reporting at Mercer
Real-time monitoring and reporting help with better operations
The Intelligent Virtual Agent (IVA) feature helps to monitor the agents. We can see if an agent is getting stuck. For example, if an agent has not been logged out properly, we can log out that particular agent from a particular session because it hampers productivity. It helps us to be more productive. Our call center agents use the Agent Assist feature. Our call center leaders are also using it to monitor agents' quality metrics. We are also using Qlik Sense along with Five9. Five9 is for monitoring, and Qlik Sense is for service-level reports. Five9 provides us with real-time information, whereas solutions like Verint take a lot more time. Qlik Sense can have intermittent logging issues where it might not work properly, whereas Five9 works properly. Among these three, Five9 is the best. Five9 also gives more bifurcation options. Five9 is good and intuitive. It helps to know how things are. I love it and use it every day. There are always new reports to generate. There are a lot of opportunities within Five9. Additionally, the real-time agent monitoring and ability to skill agents based on calls in the queue are invaluable and much easier than previous solutions like the AWS application. Previously, using the AWS application involved cumbersome steps to manage users and agents, making Five9 a welcome change. Overall, Five9 has made my job easier compared to before, and I do not struggle with it. Five9 has helped improve our call center’s speed to answer. Our leaders are using Five9 to monitor everything. It is not a time-consuming application.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product’s IVR script editor is very easy and simple to use."
"I like the capability of call and screen recording. It has helped us to hold our agents accountable to the expectations for the role. It creates a clearer picture than giving feedback that is just based on calls that we may have listened to, but we do not have anything to show the agents themselves."
"The admin tools are most valuable, such as using the UI to configure all the campaigns and all the settings that we use. Also, the monitoring panels it has are very good. Our supervisors and sales managers build dashboards in the solution so that we can understand how our operation is performing throughout the day. That is very useful."
"The most valuable feature is the simplicity of making scripts within the contact center solution itself."
"The admin platform is easy to use and navigate. That has been incredibly useful for us because it has given us the ability to self-provision in a lot of situations. The ability to create and track data elements has also been a valuable addition."
"I'm interested in all the features we're using and the reporting that's needed to get them up and running."
"Before using the WFO and its analytics, our quality teams would listen to only 5 percent of contacts a week, per employee, which is a very small part of what an employee is doing... Now, this tool does an automatic evaluation of 100 percent of their calls. It has certainly helped the QA teams in their training, and that, in turn, helps our clients."
"I like the ease with which we can make changes if necessary. Currently, we are using it for phone and email distribution, but we're talking about adding chat and delving into the omnichannel features more."
"It is stable and scalable, and their support has been very responsive."
"CX Sales is very intuitive - you just have to click a few buttons, and you see everything."
"In my experience, the most valuable feature of Oracle CX Sales varies depending on the vertical of the business you're in. Oracle offers industry-specific products tailored to different sectors. However, the sales cycles and methods remain largely consistent across the board."
"Oracle CX Sales is workflow-driven, aligning with best practices in our sales process."
"Stability depends on the implementation, but overall, it's quite high."
"It covers sales very well."
"Account management is a very good feature. It is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account. The data for those accounts remain there throughout."
"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
 

Cons

"For Five9, I would like a feature where reports such as AHT or workforce-related reports can be generated automatically without starting from scratch"
"The SMS feature could use some improvement as far as the opt-out process goes."
"Downtime happens occasionally, about two days a month, likely because of heavy usage by many agents, but I have not faced that issue as a supervisor."
"I would like to see more of the functions from the original Five9 adapter included in the Salesforce Plus adapter, as they do not automatically update when Five9 releases new features."
"Maybe they could do better on how we access all the data if we want the data to work outside of Five9. Sometimes, that's not the easiest process. It's not bad, but if there's an area for improvement, that could be one."
"What would make Five9 better is a partnership with an SMS AI solution, which would make Five9 pretty powerful."
"There are certain issues around features that Chrome has deployed that we have to figure out. When we bring them to Five9's attention, they are usually able to help us navigate them. It seems that sometimes they already know about an issue, so it would be helpful if they more proactively engaged with us first..."
"Five9's stability needs to be improved."
"They could provide more integrated AI features as part of the platform rather than as a separate offering."
"We have had some issues with integration between our old database and the Oracle CX Sales Cloud, but it has been working well for the time being."
"The address fields can be limiting on a global scale, with issues like long addresses and different styles for pin codes."
"They should have a mobile app because the sales folks travel a lot. Rather than logging into an application on the desktop, a mobile application update should be easier for them."
"They've been lacking in creating customization from scratch and in sales."
"CX Sales' stability isn't the best - it has a tendency to crap out and need refreshing, especially when creating quotes."
"The interface of Oracle CX Sales could be more user-friendly."
"It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not the most expensive, but it's not cheap."
"Five9 is a little expensive because of our company's size. That said, it scales pretty well. The daily usage costs and monthly fees seem about right. It's not out of line with what we'd expect from other companies. However, they seem to have a one-size-fits-all implementation fee. Most of their clients have hundreds if not thousands of seats in the call centers, so $5,000 or $10,000 is not a huge cost. It would be nice if they had a sliding scale for smaller companies."
"The cost is not at the lower end of the market, but it's worth it."
"Five9's pricing wasn't quite as flexible as I'd hoped, but it ended up being reasonably priced overall."
"The product's pricing is flexible and reasonable."
"Five9 is reasonable."
"Their license structure, out of the box, is better than that of other providers and their pricing is much less than other vendors we've looked at."
"Five9 is expensive, but most companies would find that using it is worth the cost."
"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"Pricing is based on licensing. They offer three different levels: basic, advanced, and enterprise. While I haven't checked the pricing recently, they often provide good discounts on the product."
"The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
"It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
"The product is pricey."
"The price is reasonable."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
