Avaya Infinity™ vs. Webex Contact Center

The Avaya Infinity™ is well suited to allow remote working for call center agents. Staff can log in and work from anywhere using Chrome and their user credentials. The technical issues and lack of some features have caused some frustration for our staff and made it difficult to get buy-in for this product across all call center groups. This is difficult because a solution like this is intended to make their work more efficient as opposed to causing frustration.

It depends on your needs. If you only need simple call flows, consider using Cisco Webex Calling Auto-Attendant. If you require more complex call flows and time-of-day routing, you can utilize Cisco Webex Contact Center. You only have to purchase 1 Agent to use the Call Flow Designer.

• What I like the most was it's very easy to understand.
• Displays the phone number of the customer calling in on the screen.
• It is very efficient at call centers since you can hear clearly without any interruptions or any static on the line.
• It is definitely an indispensable tool if you want to have a communicative contact without failures.
• The Avaya system is the best in the industry and there are many options available to meet your needs. The system is extremely easy to use and is used in various industries.

• Things that it does particularly well include a really good UX or UI so that our agents as well as our administrators, can easily provide remote access from agents, new agents, and old agents, manage interactions with customers, and have a good call experience from start to finish.
• The uptime is a big selling point of Cisco.
• I feel supposed by Cisco in terms of new features/functionality coming down the line.

• The interface is intuitive and complex, and training our new interns to use and understand its features takes a lot of time.
• There is no integration available with Facebook or Instagram, which can be done in future updates.
• There is no filter available to extract specific insights when needed.

Incentivized

• Better integration with Webex Calling.
• More on premise features integrated into the cloud solution.
• Better documentation for pebble templates.
• Better information for changes and when new features are available. Instead of having to look on the what’s coming webpage alerts or a pop-up inside Webex control hub would be nice.

I am really not the decision maker on this subject but given the cost of the investment in Avaya, I do not see the company not renewing the use of Avaya. The new licensing model no longer requires expensive upgrades to stay current with new features added to the system and really helps with the cost of investment.

We are happy with the product, with Cisco as a partner and the roadmap looks mightily impressive. Webex Contact Center is one of our growth areas so we're keen to get more agents on the platform, we want to get more customers on it and we want to make use of all the features and functionalities it offers, so that we can help our customers do what they do best.

Avaya has versatility in calling, receiving, and configuring. Being able to have notion of location, exchange of messages. we could see supplier information and configure it to our liking. as it is practicality for configuration and manual handling. Interactive and easy to learn screen. Being able to generate call reports for analysis of service in others

It is great to use Webex Contact Center as it delivers the call routing and workflow for agent and call routing. In addition to this the noise reduction helps to focus attention on the call and with the client. The notes feature and the ability for the transcription really helps with translation and language barriers.

I give it this rating because the support services of Avaya have proven to be reliable when needed. Great feedback for our queries has always been received from the support agents. 24/7 availability of support, which is very essential as our Call Center department also functions this way, therefore, the knowledge and technical support we require is always available to us.

No, everything was implemented by Avaya Support

Avaya Infinity™ has all of the bells and whistles as the other big competitors. What I like about Avaya Infinity™ is that they are ahead of the game in creating updates for compliance, and they are super supportive of hearing ideas about new tech. Class for Zoom does have some integration with Canvas and other LMS systems that allow for quizzes, etc., but Avaya Infinity™ could have it and I just don't know about it.

Webex Contact Center works great in conjunction with the above product to produce a better system from businesses and more options to reach the maximum number of clients to make the business thrive. It makes it easier to reach all generations and remove any limitation or obstetrical and makes the business have a better chance of success.

• Overall from a business objective standpoint, Avaya has to have had a positive impact on our Return on Investment. Its use in day-to-day operations has been beneficial to not only the company, but the business as well.
• Using the Avaya soft phones supplies a business or company a way to limit expenditures on the hard phones by allowing the use of Avaya soft phones. The equipment is no longer needed, save for headsets to be used with the application itself.
• Business objectives have to be just that, objectives. Economics begs for ways for a company to limit expenditures that may see little or no return. Avaya has tackled this issue and won!

• No Capex required for this solution (which makes our CFO very happy)
• Digital channels are builtin and therefore very easy to deploy
• The built in CRM integration was missing features so we had to install a thirdparty connector which we had to pay for (and wasn't in our budget) in order to get the features which our business demanded
