Avaya Infinity™ vs. Verint CX Automation

The Avaya Infinity™ is well suited to allow remote working for call center agents. Staff can log in and work from anywhere using Chrome and their user credentials. The technical issues and lack of some features have caused some frustration for our staff and made it difficult to get buy-in for this product across all call center groups. This is difficult because a solution like this is intended to make their work more efficient as opposed to causing frustration.

Well suited for advocate process streamlining - being able to assist advocate/agents with processes and guidelines. Also able to deliver automated work vs manual to assist with call. We need to enhance the back end data to support integration with other bots and data acknowledgment. I have found the tools we are building very helpful to agents/advocates, but to create an output based on these tool to monitor behavior has ben challenging

• What I like the most was it's very easy to understand.
• Displays the phone number of the customer calling in on the screen.
• It is very efficient at call centers since you can hear clearly without any interruptions or any static on the line.
• It is definitely an indispensable tool if you want to have a communicative contact without failures.
• The Avaya system is the best in the industry and there are many options available to meet your needs. The system is extremely easy to use and is used in various industries.

• Their IVA product is great. No-code and best reps.
• They document EVERYTHING! There is a ton of knowledge to get info from
• The customization is great!

• The interface is intuitive and complex, and training our new interns to use and understand its features takes a lot of time.
• There is no integration available with Facebook or Instagram, which can be done in future updates.
• There is no filter available to extract specific insights when needed.

• As someone who learned WFM and Verint CX Automation early this year the UI menus (how and where things are broken down) is not intuitive.
• Verint CX Automation can be a great resource but it's difficult to navigate and bookmarked pages get moved. For example the "What's New" page and corresponding Coming Soon in WFM and behavior changes pages have been moved twice in the last few months alone.
• The security privileges are also not very user friendly. When trying to trouble shoot what additional access needs ot be given to someone to gain access to a specific feature in the system it's not intuitive.
• Your release notes have changed sections and are not consistently published in the same place for availability. This inhibits our organization from reviewing them in advance and preparing for any changes or bug fixes we were unaware of and to setup our lab for testing.

I am really not the decision maker on this subject but given the cost of the investment in Avaya, I do not see the company not renewing the use of Avaya. The new licensing model no longer requires expensive upgrades to stay current with new features added to the system and really helps with the cost of investment.

Avaya has versatility in calling, receiving, and configuring. Being able to have notion of location, exchange of messages. we could see supplier information and configure it to our liking. as it is practicality for configuration and manual handling. Interactive and easy to learn screen. Being able to generate call reports for analysis of service in others

Based on my personal experience and the experience I have seen and heard from others in the industry. While I cannot disclose specific details on my personal experience, I feel like most who have used it have benefitted from its usability

I give it this rating because the support services of Avaya have proven to be reliable when needed. Great feedback for our queries has always been received from the support agents. 24/7 availability of support, which is very essential as our Call Center department also functions this way, therefore, the knowledge and technical support we require is always available to us.

No, everything was implemented by Avaya Support

Avaya Infinity™ has all of the bells and whistles as the other big competitors. What I like about Avaya Infinity™ is that they are ahead of the game in creating updates for compliance, and they are super supportive of hearing ideas about new tech. Class for Zoom does have some integration with Canvas and other LMS systems that allow for quizzes, etc., but Avaya Infinity™ could have it and I just don't know about it.

We have the five9 version of Verint CX Automation which took the place of Business IC Manager. The ease of use and real time coaching capabilities have been instrumental to give immediate coaching and understanding what our customer agents are doing at any given time. The canned reporting and transcription could improve.

• Overall from a business objective standpoint, Avaya has to have had a positive impact on our Return on Investment. Its use in day-to-day operations has been beneficial to not only the company, but the business as well.
• Using the Avaya soft phones supplies a business or company a way to limit expenditures on the hard phones by allowing the use of Avaya soft phones. The equipment is no longer needed, save for headsets to be used with the application itself.
• Business objectives have to be just that, objectives. Economics begs for ways for a company to limit expenditures that may see little or no return. Avaya has tackled this issue and won!

• We originally had to add more staff to support our move to Verint CX Automation. The gains we've made by leveraging some of Verint CX Automation's features to automate some of the manual work ours schedulers are doing has only helped to try to balance the increase staffing out.
