It really has everything we need.""What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's easier to use because everything is already built.

"The product has made our dealings with partners and clients much more structured.""The tool's most valuable feature is performance.""The solution enables you not to have to micro-manage your sales team.

Cons
"I would like to see some of that functionality or features from Genesys Engage added to Genesys Cloud.""AI still needs improvement when it comes to predictive engagement.""Process automation in Genesys Cloud is an area for improvement. It's quite a new feature and still has room for improvement.""Pricing is the biggest criterion for improvement. If I compare the pricing between Amazon Connect and Genesys Cloud CX, there is a huge difference.""The whole process of creating an agent is quite long and automating quite a bit of that would be very helpful.""Reporting isn't the best feature of Genesys Cloud and could be improved. You can't customize reports and applications on Genesys Cloud.""Issues can happen during technical troubleshooting, which is completely out of our hands compared to the on-premise solution.""One area for improvement in Genesys Cloud is providing users with more autonomy in troubleshooting and accessing logs."

"Salesforce needs to improve integrations. They need to integrate generative AI.""The UI could be improved.""There have been occasional issues with multiple tickets being generated for the same incident.""My customers wanted to see more analysis, like integration with another system or a third-party system.""Creating new reports more easily within Salesforce and improving the ability to associate common names of companies, especially after acquisitions, would be beneficial. I would also like to understand the administrator who has control over the data. It would be helpful when you want to implement changes or escalate issues.""It would be better if we could design our reports much more easily.""Improvements to the mobile application for a more user-friendly and responsive experience would be a great addition in future releases.""The solution could be more intuitive with regard to customization and navigation."
