Considered Both Products
NiCE CXone Mpower
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
Pros of NICE when compared to Verint:
1. Better options to manage leaves, schedules and update employee settings, line of businesses etc
2. The managers and supervisors have more powers in terms of scheduling, updating leaves, adherence etc
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
Both were great but desktop only supported limited interactions. Nice enlighten AI is more up to date and supports many different channels which is great when your business or company is more robust and utilizes many methods.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
When it comes to this specific situation (cell centers) NICE definitely has an ADP beat. The analytics, scheduling, and forecasts are extremely well-tailored for this situation. ADP has a more comprehensive solution in my opinion - I feel their UI and mobile app are also more …
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
We have not had a chance or a need as of yet to review or try any other products like NICE Uptivity.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
I could say that it is compared in a more personal way, since it is not a very well-known tool, many of its functions are for more private teams and for specific organizations.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
NICE inContact is for our soft phone or virtual phone. They have their own functions in our organization. They are both useful and easy to use. Two different functionality but same NICE. Very friendly tools and recommend this two in their platform. NICE software are really …
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
While custom reports update a much faster rate than inContact, the scope of pre-built reports is much larger in PureConnect and it is much easier to schedule reports and deliver them via email attachment. PureConnect has issues with scheduled reports, sometimes they run later …
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
It had the best features for the pricepoint.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
Superior to Verint in its agent self-service options and the ability to get more detailed schedule activity. Strongly compares with Aspect. Specific features that work for a given business will separate the best choice.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower

Cisco Express and Enterprise.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
inContact blows ININ away (now bought by Genesys systems). ININ requires a lot of money to upgrade, wouldn't do any customization for free, and would not be able to integrate as nice with Salesforce.
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
Cosmo had zero support and growth flexibility
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower

Uptivity by far works better than NICE. I have many issue when trying to pull up calls, locate calls, and evaluate calls within the NICE platform however with the simple logic of Uptivity I never have issues.


Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
I have used numerous amounts of text analytics, including: Clarabridge, Polyvista, SPSS, and other tools in the past. Attensity was by far the best of the lot. It was a bit pricier than some of the other solutions out there, but if you need a positive return on understanding …
Chose NiCE CXone Mpower
We looked at several tools for turning text into data.
The easy to understand tools had limited functionality, the analytical tools required a PHD to attend the sales pitch.
Attensity had taken the approach of including reporting and alerting with their text engine.
Zoom Contact Center
Chose Zoom Contact Center
At my company we have worked with other Contact Center solutions, both for internal use and for distribution, and we have chosen Zoom Contact Center as the best of all for its ease of use, implementation time, and easy adoption.

It offers a better experience for both our …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Microsoft Teams was very difficult. Many third-party providers didn't understand the integration and capabilities of the systems. The Teams app is very clunky, and you can get very different capabilities and compatibility when using it between Mac and PC environments. Zoom had …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Without being too negative, I would say that Zoom shines in every area that Mitel left us lacking. The application itself is far and beyond more optimized for our systems. As the Contact Center Administrator, uptime and stability and call quality are my main priorities, and …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Works for smaller customer service but if you want to see metrics and so on Zoom Workplace is the way.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Zoom Workplace is a lot easier to use than Talkdesk and is a lot less buggy.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Intercom's call features are not yet available. Dialpad does currently seem superior, but we are locked in with Zoom Workplace at the moment.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
As the person in IT dealing with the day-to-day issues that come up, Zoom Contact Center is far superior to 8x8 Contact center. When we had 8x8 we probably saw 10+ tickets (we were a company of about 115 employees) every day. Most of those times we would have to uninstall and …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
We liked RC but support in our virtual environment was not available.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Zoom Workplace's solution is much more streamlined, easier to use, easier to administrate, and easier to integrate than any of its competitors.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Zoom has all the features Jive lack at the moment, example:
Routing skills, better analytics and logs, being able to add conditions to the routing flows.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Ease of administration, use, and UI. Very dynamic platform designed by people who wanted to make something that made sense, unlike every other phone system out there that is a nightmare.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Ease of use and willingness to partner with us in gaining the most efficiency.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
It is a good product that fits our needs, we considered using the Contact Center despite the fact of still lacking important capabilities (we think it is till s in its "toddler" age) because we see how rapidly Zoom builds their products and add functionality to it, and because …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Very briefly, Zoom Contact Center is light years ahead of all of the other telephony systems we've tried with a comparable price.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Talkdesk was an all-around lower-quality product. The app wasn't great, the customer service was lackluster, and the call quality was very often poor. Its reporting and live team dashboard were better than ZCC's
Chose Zoom Contact Center
There are options and ways to get to specific feature sets that are similar to what Zoom can offer.

Many of the Zoom included features are add-ons for the RingCentral offering. So cost goes up and can also be an add-on difficulties/deployment costs as well. When we reviewed the …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
When we did a head to head comparison between the two products we felt that Zoom stacked better in price, performance and ease of use. We did trial both products and determined that the users liked the Zoom interface better.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Setup and management is much easier compared to other applications. Making changes is all done from one place and not multiple. Changes can also be made and implemented very quickly.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
I looked at multiple options but Zoom stacked up on products. Everything in one place. Cost was also a factor.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
In my opinion, Zoom Phone is far more user friendly and cost effective. I think Zoom Phone has superior user and administrator support. When you have issues, you have a person to talk to quickly. The administrative side of Zoom Phone is by far one of the best that I've every …
Chose Zoom Contact Center
RingCentral Contact Center and 8x8 Contact Center
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Different application than the above but I don't find Zoom Contact Center's offering compelling and their support is poor.
Chose Zoom Contact Center
Zoom Workplace gives us more tools than teams in relation to the education sector. More abilities in the classroom and for meetings in general

NICE CXone Mpower offers a great suite of products and tools appropriate for contact centers. It is a one stop shop for all of the monitoring, scheduling, reporting, and quality tools a large or small contact center may need. It is very feature rich and has many components, some of which we haven't even grown to adopt yet but may in the near future.

Perfect for companies that have agents all over the place, e.g., different offices or WFH. Also good for companies that aren't big enough to have a "phone guy" as this platform allows IT to do the phone work as it doesn't require esoteric knowledge like other phone systems.

Cons
  • There can be changes in interface of the app, however it's still very good
  • I would appreciete detailed web page with all necessary information, but when I need anything, the customer support is very quick and provide all the information
  • Hardly to find any other :)

  • The Teams dashboard for monitoring agents needs some customization options.
  • Friendly names, I would like to be able to name a number and when it rings you can see the name of the number.
  • Point flows at flows would be nice, instead of flows to queues only.

Nice made it possible for employees to work from anywhere with access to the internet, it made it possible to extract data from contacts in a very thorough way. In addition, the meticaes can be fully customized and the day-to-day monitoring of the operation is more visible.With nice, contacts with clients abroad became easier.

Usability
NICE CXone offers a very intuitive interface that is easy for our customers to understand in a short period of time and easy for us to administrate. All tools like Admin, ACD, Reporting, and Analytics are very user-friendly, and with little training, customers can reap the benefits of the tools.

First and foremost for our results, the omnichannel approach and ease of use on the internal side (agents, supervisors and administrators) have made adoption very simple, we have managed to reduce response times (SLA) and internal communication has become very fluid. We get good feedback from our clients for having implemented ZCC in the company to serve them.

Reliability and Availability
NICE inContact CXone is available when you need it. I have been using it for about a year and I have never suffered any issues that caused my not to have access to the product. If there are updates, they must be downloaded and install in the background because I do not see them

Performance
NICE inContact CXone performs very well even on old computers that are limited in resources. I use a older computer with limited memory and it seems to handle NICE inContact CXone very well in most cases. There will be times when it acts up for whatever reason bust over ninety percent of the time.

Support Rating
inContact only allows specific users to contact them for support. Even though I use the product daily and it accounts for a large amount of my workload, I still have to contact an authorized user to create an incident. These users are managers and their schedules are very busy. This can result in delays in incidents being opened and resolved.

In-Person Training
The In-person training was fine for a general overview. I think it would have been really helpful to have a review of pre-built reports and how to use them as tools.

Online Training
The training was very brief, teaching how to use the features for my role. Over time, I discovered many other features that were not explained. I believe that if it were done more completely, it would know the features earlier. An example of this is the productivity page, where I needed to measure together with my colleagues, to know the real information that the screen brought and, to my surprise, it was very useful.

We love the use of our new tools. However, NICE staff turnover was frustrating. We lost ground each time a new team took over. Some people were good some were not as much. Some people did great training while others were not as helpful

When it comes to this specific situation (cell centers) NICE definitely has an ADP beat. The analytics, scheduling, and forecasts are extremely well-tailored for this situation. ADP has a more comprehensive solution in my opinion - I feel their UI and mobile app are also more user-friendly. But in terms of performance management functionality, NICE has a more robust system and is able to create additional metrics if we need them When I used ADP there were no custom options available.

Microsoft Teams was very difficult. Many third-party providers didn't understand the integration and capabilities of the systems. The Teams app is very clunky, and you can get very different capabilities and compatibility when using it between Mac and PC environments. Zoom had a local team that could help with the transition directly, which is very valuable

Scalability
The scalability is awesome because of the multiple uses it is able at performing for users. A large organization with several user can use this product in the same fashion that a smaller organization could. I believe the larger organization would see more benefits because of the users ability between communication coworkers

Return on Investment
  • WFM and net staffing bar have allowed us to see hour by hour if we are over or under-staffed. This keeps us on track with our SLAs.
  • The ability to evaluate calls and have the reps review the evaluations has been a crucial part of keeping our KPI where it needs to be.
Read full review
  • Intuitive, Easier and almost effortless to maintain.
  • Lesser Operational Expenses that the alternative we also have
  • We wish it has a better integration with Zoom Phone, in terms of channels integration (Voice and Chat) to quick identify callers.
  • It is missing "modular" programming to "reuse" Existing Flows and call them from other flows then return to the main flow.
  • It is missing the capability to compartmentalizing different teams/groups related to reporting, admin, and global parameters.
