Omnichannel contact center has unified customer interactions and delivers smarter routing

Regarding scripters, I should clarify that Genesys Cloud CX dashboards provide real-time data, showing call counts, satisfaction levels, and pending interactions in the queue. Agents can see their workload and know when to take breaks, with managers benefiting from comprehensive team management. We also created dashboards tailored for point-of-sale locations managed by Genesys Cloud CX, and overall, we have been very satisfied. However, I should note that the dashboards are somewhat basic in functionality, making it challenging for an agent to build visually appealing dashboards compared to other market solutions where drag-and-drop features are simpler. My overall experience with Genesys Cloud CX has been positive but should be seen in perspective, as nothing is purely black or white; there are shades of gray. While the metrics and system capabilities reflected success, our goal in implementing Genesys Cloud CX was to standardize processes. Thus, we faced challenges related to change management due to the tool's complexity. It required extensive training, especially for predictive elements, because it is a business-class tool not suited for everyone and often demands several months of training.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Genesys Cloud CX platform's unified interface has improved agent efficiency a lot; compared to other platforms, it contributes about 40 percent to agent efficiency since agents do not have to toggle between multiple screens, allowing them to focus on the solution and respond to customers effectively."

"The most valuable features include being an omnichannel solution with customer journey insights, full reporting, and continuous updates based on consumer feedback through their portal."

"The integration of CTI within the IT system is a particularly valuable feature."

"The ROI is really good with some of our clients, as their profit margins have increased using the solution because of the additional contact they have with their clients."

"The latest version and updates have been great. It really has everything we need."

"The stability is really good."

"The most valuable feature for me is the WFM tool."

"Genesys Cloud is an excellent platform."

More Genesys Cloud CX pros

"Can integrate with a lot of gateways in voice."

Cons

"I would like to see some of that functionality or features from Genesys Engage added to Genesys Cloud."

"Reporting isn't the best feature of Genesys Cloud and could be improved. You can't customize reports and applications on Genesys Cloud."

"Their WFM product is still pretty immature."

"I believe the implementation needs improvement, the implementation of integration."

"There is room for improvement in the solution's pricing structure, as it is perceived to be less flexible than other solutions."

"Pricing is the biggest criterion for improvement. If I compare the pricing between Amazon Connect and Genesys Cloud CX, there is a huge difference."

"For the HIPAA instance where we use Genesys as a carrier, we face multiple issues. In that instance, calls are not consistent."

"However, I should note that the dashboards are somewhat basic in functionality, making it challenging for an agent to build visually appealing dashboards compared to other market solutions where drag-and-drop features are simpler."

More Genesys Cloud CX cons

"Customer support can sometimes be delayed."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate Genesys Cloud CX's pricing a one out of ten."

"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."

"The cost depends on the type of license based on your organization's requirements and can get expensive."

"The pricing is a bit expensive."
