Automation has reduced large call centers and provides real-time outbound support for patients
Kore.ai is a low-code platform, and you do not necessarily have to be an expert in artificial intelligence or generative AI to use this platform. However, if you have that experience, it will be a valuable add-on. The main advantage is that it has almost every kind of plugin available to use, whether for live agents or if you want to use it as a call center. You have real-time capabilities and the most useful plugins available, with almost every kind of model available with configurations. We can configure the ML models and train them. The platform is very user-friendly with explanatory features and a great UI. One significant feature is the live testing platform with Kore.ai. When you are creating a workflow, you have an interactive, real-time testing platform that reflects every change you make. This makes it easy to debug errors or add new features. Additionally, Kore.ai has many different tools and platforms that cater to different needs, whether for a call center, normal workflow, or machine learning workflow, which is really useful. Because of Kore.ai, it was much easier than creating something manually. A low-code platform always helps, and when that platform has this much capability, it provides far more value than manual development. It was particularly helpful for our team that we could create a POC and get that project into production. Kore.ai helped our team build a generative AI outbound calling chatbot, and it truly helped our customers. If you have a hospital with a thousand employees in a call center, you might consider outsourcing. However, with Kore.ai's outbound calling capabilities, you can eliminate the outsourcing part. You do not need a thousand call center employees. You can accomplish this through automation with just one or two employees if people need to switch to agents. This represented a significant cost reduction.

Has improved data visibility and protection while enabling automated compliance monitoring
Varonis Platform offers multiple features for data protection, such as data discovery and classification. We can identify, discover, and classify sensitive data effectively, which is crucial given the DPDP law in India and GDPR. The platform also excels in access and exposure tracking, enabling us to monitor users, permissions, and reduce access to sensitive files. Additionally, it includes UEBA for behavior analytics and threat detection, making it valuable for compliance and audit readiness. Varonis Platform has helped our organization primarily for DPDP compliance, although I currently don't have a specific example related to GDPR or HIPAA. A unique feature of Varonis Platform that stands out to me is that, in the current market, it is one of the best data classification solutions available. Compared to others such as Forcepoint, Varonis Platform is agent-based and AI-driven for detection and response, identifying data based on its content and context, and it includes automated remediation and lifecycle automation, making it a leading product in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It impacted my organization by helping us move into being AI-native, and it helped a lot to show other clients that we have worked in AI."
"Kore.ai offers multiple support and services, including API integration, webhook integration, and multiple channels, making it easy to design your own layout, integrate with multiple channels and webhooks, deploy quickly, and track any errors that occur, so it is a good way to start and easy to learn."
"Kore.ai has positively impacted my organization by helping us build intelligent chatbots and incorporating voice agents, enabling various clients to adopt these solutions, which have been revolutionary for their businesses."
"Kore.ai helped us integrate a lot through documentation and trial and error, making it straightforward to integrate overall, resulting in a very good experience for first-timers."
"Kore.ai has positively impacted my organization by simplifying the process of responding to emails and streamlining the workflow, saving me considerable time."
"The positive impacts we have seen include expected reductions in average handle time, which is typically around 40 to 50 percent for any BFSI industry use case."
"Kore.ai has positively impacted my organization, as it saved a lot of time in implementation and the proof of concept was very fast to implement and easy to develop."
"Because of Kore.ai, it was much easier than creating something manually, and when that platform has this much capability, it provides far more value than manual development."
"Varonis Platform is transparent and captures everything in the environment without impacting the performance. The tool helps us unify data feeds into a single reporting system."
"Varonis Platform has positively impacted my organization by providing clarity regarding data and permissions, improving visibility, security, and compliance."
"It can easily identify unusual behavior or access patterns that may pose a potential threat, while operating as a unified reporting system."
"The most important feature is remediation. In remediation support, there is no group permission. We'll go ahead and remediate the access from the Dell folder to the parent folder."
"There's also a 90-day policy where if a user is not using the warehouse, it will automatically delete that username."
"The example I used with the hospital gives a very clear picture of the ROI."
"This solution informs us about who's moving data, whether accidentally or on purpose."
"Technical support from Varonis is rated as nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"Customer support is okay, I guess. We get what we want from them whenever there is an issue or something, but sometimes when we had issues, it was delayed a lot."
"Kore.ai can be improved by enhancing their documentation, which is currently a bit disorganized."
"I choose 7.5 out of 10 for Kore.ai because a few things already need to be improved, one of which I have mentioned."
"Customer support is where Kore.ai has significant room for improvement. Post-implementation support is a particularly discouraging aspect for me."
"The two points I deduct relate to the integrations, which were not as extensive as I initially expected."
"I rated Kore.ai an 8 out of 10 because additional features could be added to it."
"In my experience, Kore.ai is not stable."
"To improve Kore.ai, I suggest focusing on more agentic automation, such as offering MCP kind of features with an orchestration layer for use cases."
"Be prepared that when you implement the product, you will have to tune it as you go."
"The solution's areas of improvement are the interface and the dependency on on-premises deployment for some components."
"Varonis requires more access permissions for its core functions compared to competitors, which can be a concern for companies about data safety."
"For user-based reports, log on activity, and stuff like that, it doesn't seem to really be present like Log360."
"It is significantly complex."
"The remediation process can be improved. There will be no existing permission group for the McAfee channel domains. We can create a new permissions group for the required folder."
"I'd like to see automatic updates for this solution. Currently, it's a manual process to update all the keywords"
"The product is very complicated."
