Omnichannel features have unified journeys and AI now speeds up responses for our agents
NICE CXone is a good feature, but it is expensive and costlier than other products such as Genesis or other alternatives. When it comes to solutioning, there are too many SKUs, which are line items or components that could have been bundled together. For example, CXone agent licenses do not include QM in the basic packages, whereas in the Genesis world it is bundled. The price comparison is higher compared to Genesis or other platforms. I have been using Genesis for three to four years across multiple customers, and now that NICE CXone has become available, I have started comparing all the features and benefits. I find there are some gaps, with more features available but at a higher cost for NICE. Regarding cost-effectiveness and return on investment of NICE CXone, the main challenge is working with the NICE team. The speed of onboarding is lengthy and people-dependent initially. When comparing with other OEMs and CCaaS products, the UI interface and partner portal have multiple access points. I need to log into different portals for NICE CXone, whereas my other competitor platforms offer single sign-on where I can log in once and access all partner-led programs and learning materials in one location. There is room for improvement in this area, though gradually NICE can change this approach.

Meeting multiple objectives with comprehensive scheduling and content ideas
Sometimes I'll log into LinkedIn, and it won't show the scheduled post. I have to go through Sprinklr and double-check. It would be nice if it showed everything I have scheduled also in LinkedIn alone. Sometimes, if I try to use emojis, I'll click on one or search for one, but I can't scroll through them or they don't pop up.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support for NICE CXone is outstanding."
"It has the ability to edit the HTML, as well as the WYSIWYG."
"Some of the best features with NICE CXone are the real-time visibility that you have, which empowers you to make adjustments on the fly, such as turning on and off your queues and adjusting how we route calls to our agents."
"We are able to see the calls in queue and able to see if someone is available or not."
"inContact has helped our organization greatly by allowing us to see at a glance which agents are available to receive calls and those who are not, we are able to see why not."
"Customer support is terrific. The team is personable, informed, and responsive."
"The system is very flexible and powerful, especially for organizations wanting to control their environment."
"It's easier as a supervisor to do your job more efficiently. You can have multiple things open at once to watch everything, being able to take one look at a page and see everything you need rather then having to flip through multiple programs. This is such a time saver. I get a lot more done in my day due to being able to keep my opened programs down to a minimum."
"Everything is integrated in one platform."
"The most valuable features are case management and reporting."
"The interface is the most valuable feature to me."
"Being able to use moving images, like GIFs, is important, and multi-language support is crucial, as it allows content in multiple languages and increases engagement and impressions significantly."
"Customization and custom rule engines are highly valuable, enabling the creation of custom rules tailored to specific needs."
"The most important feature of Sprinklr is its high availability since it is a cloud solution."
"The most effective feature is the automation of the routing engine."
"The scheduling feature is, of course, key just so I can do it in one sitting, plan out the month, and be ahead of everything."
 

Cons

"Your docs go on their servers and getting them out is difficult, especially if you want to switch to another authoring format, e.g., Markdown. There are no converters and an automated extraction of the docs from the CMS is not available."
"If you have hundreds of books, the initial download is slow."
"It is a hassle, if you are busy and caught up with something, that it will log you out."
"One of the biggest missing pieces is a link checker."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while. For example, if I have a dashboard open that shows how many calls are in queue and how many are currently being handled by agents, sometimes a call that an agent is handling will get stuck on the dashboard after the agent ends the call and the dashboard will show that the call is still a live call. Our tech team has explained this to us as a ghost call. After some time (or maybe many screen refreshes) the call will go away like it has just ended."
"Compared to challengers such as Zoom, which seem more cost-effective, NICE CXone's suite of products is very modular, so as they provide new services, you have to add to your existing package and this balloons your costs since there's an additional license needed to use the new tools."
"inContact should offer a way to send faxes."
"There are times when the data does not load and you have to keep hitting refresh. More colors and different layouts should be included in the next release."
"The interaction and integration with our CRM should be improved, especially to ensure security with on-premises solutions and to be suitable for banking environments."
"Sometimes I'll log into LinkedIn, and it won't show the scheduled post."
"Sprinklr could be more drag-and-drop friendly."
"Sprinklr should consider not charging for everything. Services such as premium support and onboarding should be part of the deal."
"If I compare Sprinklr with NICE, people still opt for NICE. This is because they are not as confident with the use cases of Sprinklr, even though Sprinklr is trying to improve."
"When onboarding new users, the platform requires a lot of fine-tuning, which demands certain expertise on the customer side."
"The support system is a major drawback because there is no live chat system for immediate issue reporting, leading to delayed resolutions."
"Their support team should opt for phone calls over emails to resolve issues faster."
