Amazon Alexa for Business vs. ZoomInfo Chat

Virtual assistants at work are still new features and have a lot to improve. 
The more features we have, the more we want new features. 
In small environments we have "noise" between virtual assistants, making use inappropriate. 
But in more distributed environments it is very good.
We still have a lot to learn (both, us and our Alexas). 

ZoomInfo chat is a very good tool for user engagement on the website and lead conversion. It's a very good tool that provides live chat, chat boat, and also a meeting scheduler so that customers can choose the preferred time to discuss with the sales team. It's very good for improving the productivity of the sales team and acquiring quality customers.

• Communication between people on the team.
• Interactive personal assistant.
• Better workspace management.

• It is really great at integrations. We were able to plug in Slack without breaking a sweat. And it works really well with our other tools as well.
• Implementation and setup was very easy and smooth. I actually anticipated it to be a lot bumpier but I was surprised at how quickly and smoothly it went.
• They have a great support team too. Anytime we have gotten in touch with them, we have had a great experience.

• Could have a feature for group chats.
• Alexa has some problems hearing nearby voices.
• Website suggestions are irrelevant sometimes (should have user evaluation functionality for the answer, improving accuracy).

• It could improve on total data provided when a lead is sent
• Integrate intro messages, or give a confidence index on how often the lead is replying. They have this feature in other zoom products
• Allow visitors to directly contact sales team or marketing.

This is the main feature, so they've designed it well with companies like mine in mind. It's fast, clean, efficient, and perfectly integrates with main Zoom sales products, which is something every single one of us uses. So the synergy was already on the table before we started. Highly easy to use, minimal training required.

As a fresh product in the market, support is very warm and they are putting out an earnest effort in fixing reported bugs!

We looked at two other alternatives: Google Nest and Apple. But Alexa already has popular devices that many people on the team already had in their homes. And it would be easier to integrate into the professional environment. The cost of Amazon products is also much lower, which makes the product more competitive.

As I mentioned, it's more than just a ChatBot. The ChatBot is just another feature that it offers, but it allows you to talk to the website traffic which otherwise would have gone without interacting with your website. Sometimes even retargeting ads fail to target such valuable visitors, that is where ZoomInfo chat plays its role.

• Difficulties with technology integration.
• Identify all possible uses.
• We still lost a lot of time making new settings.

• It was quite simple to set up. We've tried a few different chat services on our website before, but the integration process is never as simple as the documentation suggests. Installing and configuring this, including integrating it to Slack, was actually quite simple.
• Fabulous chatbot arrangement that expanded our site changes.
