I think it's well suited for voice-only contact centers, small or large, specifically large contact centers because Avaya's been doing contact center and routing for years and they do it well. I think that it could be better in terms of ease of customization. You really have to know vectors and VDMs in order to manipulate some things and do some customized things. You need some specialized knowledge for that. So I think that that could be made easier. But call center lead has been a standard for a lot of companies for a long time and they do call routing pretty well.

• I think the biggest room for improvement in Call Center Elite is excellent with voice. But we have other channels such as email, and chat, and one of the reasons why we're bringing in Oceania is to fill that gap to provide customers with options no matter how they contact us, voice, email, or chat, they're serviced effectively. So that's the biggest gap right now and that's why we have a project to help fill that gap and to add AI functionality. It's good that Avaya has relationships with companies like Google because they're able to bring AI to the table like Google CC, AI, and Dialogue Flow. They're able to bring that to the table so we can leverage our investment in Lead and add on to it.

Altitude uCI offers some CRM capabilities that Genesys Cloud does not. It offers the option to store multi-dimensional interaction outcomes and presents them in reports. Altitude uCI agent scripts can be more elaborate than Genesys Could ones, and its reports are fully customizable. While Genesys Cloud is moving toward that direction, it still doesn't offer the level of customizability Altitude Xperience does.

When it comes to the core, the products in the market are similar. What is different is the bells and whistles and backend plumbing. One of the key criteria that we chose Elite was that we were using Avaya in the past, and system stability was excellent, plus the user experience remained consistent.

• It's done everything we've expected it to do and we've been able to tailor it some to benefit us better from getting KPIs to being able to connect to everything that we need. There is a way to do it all and so it's been a lifesaver and it's just been a great product to be able to work with.
