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.

AI insights have transformed real-time call monitoring and reduced healthcare complaint cases
This greatly reduced the number of cases and proceedings opened with the National Health Agency, significantly optimizing the time of those who did this analysis before, very manually. Today they already receive this proactively and can act in a much more assertive way with these customers and agents. There are a few features that I consider the best, one of them being this sentiment analysis, not only on the customer side but also an analysis of how the service is on the agent's side, giving a customer experience view and a pro experience view. You can have an overall picture to catch cases of burnout, for example, to intervene so that agents take a break or have a conversation to ensure they provide quality service. I actually sell Verint Open Platform, and the customers who had this type of solution saw gains. For example, with the solution, especially Speech Analytics with AI, they had a reduction in the number of proceedings the company received. The companies that implemented the Quality Bot saw operational gains, an increase in NPS, an improvement in quality, and more assertiveness in identifying which agents were not performing at their best. Broadly speaking, I can share that these customers had a reduction in the number of people doing manual evaluation. The NPS figure saw an increase of about twenty percent for the Quality Bot part, and the number of proceedings decreased using Speech Analytics with AI.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's easier to use because everything is already built. Another valuable feature of Genesys Cloud is drag-and-drop."
"After implementing Genesys Cloud CX, we achieved a 97% call response rate compared to 80% with our previous self-service software, and customer surveys showed their call center experience improved from three stars to 4.2."
"The features and capabilities of Genesys Cloud CX that I have found most valuable so far include its omni-channel support."
"We have seen a very good return on investment using Genesys Cloud CX, achieving growth of 117% this fiscal year, which is beyond our expectations, mainly due to customer retention and onboarding."
"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."
"Its comprehensive single application includes everything from reporting to IVR and workflows."
"Genesys Cloud CX has very good training material and training – instructor-led training, self-paced training, and documentation – things are very organized and helpful."
"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 companies that implemented the Quality Bot saw operational gains, an increase in NPS, an improvement in quality, and more assertiveness in identifying which agents were not performing at their best."
 

Cons

"I believe the implementation needs improvement, the implementation of integration."
"In terms of cost-effectiveness, I find Genesys Cloud CX provides overall ROI benefits; however, after the first year, customers usually expect lower pricing at the time of renewal."
"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."
"The whole process of creating an agent is quite long and automating quite a bit of that would be very helpful."
"There is always a chance for improvement with all CRM tools, and as of now, I suggest we need advanced customization in the architecture without the code flow."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's pricing structure, as it is perceived to be less flexible than other solutions."
"For the HIPAA instance where we use Genesys as a carrier, we face multiple issues. In that instance, calls are not consistent."
"One area for improvement in Genesys Cloud is providing users with more autonomy in troubleshooting and accessing logs."
"Support leaves a bit to be desired, and I think it is an area for improvement that Verint has in the support part."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost depends on the type of license based on your organization's requirements and can get expensive."
"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 pricing is a bit expensive."
"I rate Genesys Cloud CX's pricing a one out of ten."
