Alvaria vs. NiCE CXone Mpower

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.

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.

• 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.

• Workforce management is very easy to use
• Quality management allows evaluations to be objective
• Real time adherence allows me to know what everyone on the team is doing at a glance
• Reports allow us to evaluate the performance and helps us improve

Incentivized

• It could show more info on the home page, not just the daily schedule
• At times the website runs a little slow
• The mobile app could be easier to navigate as well

Incentivized

• 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 :)

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Incentivized

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

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.

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.

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

Incentivized

• I think it works fine but a lot of the employees always have to ask for help submitting times off so we have to ask for help which wastes a lot of time.

Incentivized

• 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.
