Alvaria vs. Amazon Connect

Noble is well suited for any size contact center doing inbound only, or fully blended environments. From appointment setting to collections, Noble has products to successfully accomplish the requirement. For organizations that are heavily focused on compliance, Noble's TCPA Lockdown product, Post and Real-Time Speech Analytics, and onboard evaluation tools are a must - all proprietary and fully integrated. For organizations interested in "doing more with less", Noble has multiple AI products that ensure success.

Our company is a startup that is just starting to get wholesale customers. When we realized our customers needed support using our products, we set up a Contact Center via Amazon Connect. It has been very useful in allowing us to scale up very quickly, and provide services to our company as if we were a large corporation.

• Local control: the Noble Maestro platform, once you learn it, enables you to control your call center right from your desk. You can add, delete, and skill users, you can build all of your IVR flows and change them as necessary (like for holiday closures, etc)
• User interface design: I built the pop-up windows for each queue, and was able to design them to contain quick reference information for how to handle calls, and build an order number capture module from the IVR to the agent. In other words, I could prompt the customer to punch in their order number, then display it to the agent.
• Technical support - their support group was easy to reach and easy to work with.

Incentivized

• The training and orientation from Amazon Connect is excellent, as there are documentations and online live training.

• The customer service is also intuitive, with flexible call hours, as the team of helpers is readily available.
• Lastly, through Amazon Connect, there is a survey and feedback option.

It is very easy to use for any access level and has greatly facilitated users' ability to properly document tickets without getting lost in short or vague comments. Each case is fully tracked through this transcription of information. This made it easier for us to decide whether to implement, use, and maintain it as our contact tool in our customer service center.

We utilize Noble's Enterprise Support, offering us 24/7 access. Additionally, with Enterprise Support we engage with Level II Support Technicians and no-hassle escalation. With Enterprise Support, we also have a dedicated Account Manager who conducts weekly/bi-weekly support calls to discuss open tickets and upgrade opportunities. With Enterprise Support, we have the ability to select our window for upgrades, to include weekends.

Alvaria has a clunkier User Interface than Workday. It's granular to such an extent that it actually decreases usability for those less technologically literate (most managers). For scheduling, it can be used much more granularly, which is great for reporting but requires a larger investment of time and knowledge to make the system effective.
