    Playvox is well suited to rate and track process adherence and work quality percentual. It is also great to document coaching and track advisors' development, as well as to do knowledge checks through quizzes. It is not so appropriate if you need to see the previous coachings made, since those cannot be opened when they finished.

    For workforce management, more so in the customer care department, Verint Workforce Management is the best as it makes matching resources with needs easy. It enhances scheduling, and thanks to the smooth match, handling customer issues becomes easy, and this enhances customer experience.

    Pros
    Playvox
    • It's easy to start evaluating since it pulls up all the data automatically.
    • It is easy to generate reports as all the data is stored in its servers and we just download it.
    • Filters make it easy to see our Associates' areas of opportunity and strengths.

    • I love the color ribbons that can be set up universally for all our business lines.
    • The mobile application is easy to use and our agents love it.
    • I love the security within the application- customizing who gets what access is great!

    Cons
    Playvox
    • The speed of loading the chat that I am evaluating for the customer service representative because sometimes it shows that there is an error in the load.
    • Keep a lot of information
    • It should have more languages for ease of control

    • It is very technical. It is not something that you can just jump into. It took me a while to train my other contact center managers on how to use it and I just actually recently got an employee who was helping me manage the workforce management variance system and it just takes a lot of time and patience in order to learn the full gamut of how shifts go together. And this goes into this and you have to do one piece right or nothing else works in the end and the activities. It is just a lot when you come from not doing anything close to that.

    I do not think my organization has and 2nd thought of changing the Playvox because I am sure they cannot find another option that is as easy and smooth. There is no other option at all. Playvox is being used here in every department and the company cannot run without this. Now it is a basic need of this business

    Whilst Verint Workforce Management is doing much of the work we were hoping it would do, there are some limitations that cause hesitancy when deciding if it is the tool for the future. No further exploration has taken place to seek alternatives to date. It is good for the Contact element of our business but not for the rest of the business, meaning we have to use two planning tools currently.

    Usability
    Playvox
    Playvox is an easy-to-use platform, all features are intuitive, which makes navigation easy. I never found navigation problems, I was always able to find all the items I needed, all the information is well separated, what could improve is the possibility of moving some items, putting the ones that I use the most in evidence.

    I have worked within the system for several years and have not found a separate WFM system that is comparable or has as many features as Verint. There are comparable systems for scheduling , forecasting and PTO allotment. however I have not been able to find one with all three

    We have had multiple live trainings (Zoom). The training at the beginning of the set up was top notch. We had some additional questions about coaching and they jumped on the opportunity to help us. We have a designated trainer and account manager.

    Training was covered in full day sessions that went very fast with no way of recording the information for later review. This made it hard to capture & retain all the details of information.

    From the day first, we were active on Playvox and happy with the features. It does not take much time to understand its features and its performance. A few training sessions with 'How to use' and we are experts using Playvox.

    The team helping us did a great job training our WFM leaders on how to use the tool from forecasting, to schedule updates to maintenance. They allowed us to be involved in implementation but also did a lot of the initial heavy lifting allowing us to stay focussed on the tasks at hand. It was a great experience and one I would hope occurs again should we ever need to implement a new tool again.

    I selected Playvox as it is the platform my organization uses. I've never worked with another platform like this. In other companies I worked, procedures, communications, and training were not saved, they were only communicated verbally and sometimes a document with what should be done, but nothing compared to the ease of using a Playvox.

    Verint Workforce Management is superior in many ways to other programs, though there are aspects of the others that may be a bit better. Overall, Verint has more pros than cons when compared to other scheduling software, it is simply in need of improvement in some areas.

    • Staffing optimization - With the Verint tool, we have been able to optimize our workforce, reduce our staff and centralize our processes.
    • Employee Engagement - Our employees always know where their performance stands so they can take ownership in their performance.
    • We have implemented WFM in several areas of the company and have been able to improve those departments which have never had a tool to help in back office operations.
