Usability

The Best Contact Center system

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Webex Contact Center is essential for getting all calls, managing callers, and giving them the best experience, whether while on hold or guiding them through the process of getting any information from a CRM without the need to reach an agent. Many times we have a flow setup where when caller reaches an agent, the agent already have the callers information from SF or any Database. With the new supervisor desktop, supervisors manage their agents from one single platform and control the queues and teams from a single panel. Reporting is a great tool that assist in troubleshooting for admins, or just getting an overview for managers to make business decisions. Webex Contact Center also utilize Connect which involve social channels and chatting, which makes reaching to an agent and get the information needed very fast and easy.

Pros

  • Easy to setup a flow and managing it and make changes without impacting the production system
  • Great analyzer that gives detailed information
  • Provide social channels to reach all the customers regardless of age and social groups
  • Easy to SMS and have communication for customers on the go

Cons

  • Provide an easier way to create reports that are basic and direct
  • A CTI connection between Webex Calling and Webex Contact Center to enable sending calls to flow without the need of a DID
  • More examples of JSON to create formulas in the flows

Return on Investment

  • It has been a great impact as it has made contact center visibility easier and easier to make changes
  • Negative is that when Cisco is making changes it is impacting at the back end. Hope they become more careful

Usability

Webex Contact Center a great add-on to Webex Calling for complex call flows.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We migrated to Webex Calling and used the Auto-Attendant and it wasn't quite fitting our needs as we came from Unity Connections which had a lot more features, so we were suggested to use Webex Contact Center, not for the agent portion but for the IVR system, we could then use more granular time of day routing and get the call where it needed to go based on the time of day or night. I gave it an eight because it can be very complex to set up the call flows and you may struggle unless you have help.

Pros

  • Routing the calls to where they need to go.
  • Has decent Text to Speech.
  • Can be as complex as you want it to be.

Cons

  • More options in the Text to Speech area.
  • Better highlighting of the call flows so you can better follow when troubleshooting.
  • Unless already available, it would be great to have a test number to call into and have the call flow light up to indicate your current position in the flow.

Return on Investment

  • Being able to route the calls to the right people at the right time.
  • Our calls don't have to go straight to an on-call phone after hours.
  • Needing to outsource setup for more complex Call Flows.
