User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
SpiceCSM does an excellent job at allowing agents to view customer information, access customer contact documentation history, and create cases to send to other departments or to have the account managed beyond an agent's capabilities. It is a great tool for tracking individual account activity such as returns, contact history, contact disposition history, and general account information. The analytics of SpiceCSM could be improved. The reports are not easily customizable, which leaves users frequently having to manually process data in Microsoft Excel.

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.

Pros
  • Personalization
  • Segment Skills/Campaigns
  • Support for issues
Read full review
  • 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.

Cons
  • Reporting - Not very customizable
  • Managing Contact Dispositions (topics)
  • Analytics user interface

  • 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.

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.

Salesforce and Zendesk. I like SpiceCSM better.

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

Return on Investment
  • Ability to analyze customer contact topic trends.
  • Ability to sort callers and filter them to certain phone lines based on customer account information.
  • Large data was lost after 90 days (contact level/call notes and details), so we have to save and backup the data ourselves. This takes up a bit of storage space.

  • 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.
