Avaya Infinity™ vs. Zoom Contact Center

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.

Perfect for companies that have agents all over the place, e.g., different offices or WFH. Also good for companies that aren't big enough to have a "phone guy" as this platform allows IT to do the phone work as it doesn't require esoteric knowledge like other phone systems.

• 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.

• Customer service - Whether for sales, setup, or technical assistant, their team is always patient, informed, and helpful.
• Cutting Edge - Every month there are a plethora of new or enhanced features that are well thought, tested, and ready for implementing.
• Stability - Our uptime is important to our clients. As a 24/7 365 day/year contact center, having confidence that Zoom's systems are up and running means our clients have trust in our abilities to service their calls.

• 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.

Incentivized

• The Teams dashboard for monitoring agents needs some customization options.
• Friendly names, I would like to be able to name a number and when it rings you can see the name of the number.
• Point flows at flows would be nice, instead of flows to queues only.

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

First and foremost for our results, the omnichannel approach and ease of use on the internal side (agents, supervisors and administrators) have made adoption very simple, we have managed to reduce response times (SLA) and internal communication has become very fluid. We get good feedback from our clients for having implemented ZCC in the company to serve them.

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.

Microsoft Teams was very difficult. Many third-party providers didn't understand the integration and capabilities of the systems. The Teams app is very clunky, and you can get very different capabilities and compatibility when using it between Mac and PC environments. Zoom had a local team that could help with the transition directly, which is very valuable

• 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!

Incentivized

• Intuitive, Easier and almost effortless to maintain.
• Lesser Operational Expenses that the alternative we also have
• We wish it has a better integration with Zoom Phone, in terms of channels integration (Voice and Chat) to quick identify callers.
• It is missing "modular" programming to "reuse" Existing Flows and call them from other flows then return to the main flow.
• It is missing the capability to compartmentalizing different teams/groups related to reporting, admin, and global parameters.
