IVR and call routing

We migrated to Webex Calling and used the Auto-Attendant and it wasn't quite fitting our needs as we came from Unity Connections which had a lot more features, so we were suggested to use Webex Contact Center, not for the agent portion but for the IVR system, we could then use more granular time of day routing and get the call where it needed to go based on the time of day or night.

These improvements also extend to remote work environments, where monitoring capabilities ensure consistent agent performance.

Agent experience improved

Workforce now spends more quality time in actual business rather than spending time with CC tools.

Improved efficiency/productivity

It has impacted the workforce by maximising the efficiency and time for the agent on the call with the customer as the transcription notes helps with the call summary. The time saved makes it pleasant for the agent as well as there is less administration for the agent to think of and focus on solving the clients problem.

Improved Customer Experience

So far, we have only demonstrated this to customers, and we have not been deploying it, but that's mainly because these features have only been generally available for a couple of weeks. The responses to our demos have been really positive and it's very easy to show how these features can improve the overall customer experience, reduce agent handle time and so on.

Virtual Agent Benefits

The virtual agent is really quick and easy to configure and get started to working in operations.

Impact on Organization

Our main industry is based on hospitality so understanding the customers need and help them to have a better CX will help us to expand our branding and having a better customer experience. This will be a huge impact for our industry. Not only our customers but also our employees.

Webex Contact Center Review

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have several contact center customers, both internal and external business. Our contact centers are inbound and have both onsite as well as remote agents. Customers range from shared services support to Network Operations center to external government services support. Several centers are 24 x 7 365 with various shifts. We utilize soft phones and desk phones.

Pros

  • Agent and supervisor desktop
  • Consolidated support via Control Hub
  • User friendly flow designer
  • Hybrid integration

Cons

  • Tenant partitioning
  • Roles/access
  • PSTN access via Wx calling

Likelihood to Recommend

Webex Contact Center provides the features and services to support our diverse clients. It is relatively easy to manage and maintain and the consolidated Webex control hub is so much easier to administer for support vs the many components in UCCE which had ICM, peripheral gateway, IPIVR, loggers, routers, etc. The Webex scripting is much easier to use as well

The Best Contact Center system

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Webex Contact Center is essential for getting all calls, managing callers, and giving them the best experience, whether while on hold or guiding them through the process of getting any information from a CRM without the need to reach an agent. Many times we have a flow setup where when caller reaches an agent, the agent already have the callers information from SF or any Database. With the new supervisor desktop, supervisors manage their agents from one single platform and control the queues and teams from a single panel. Reporting is a great tool that assist in troubleshooting for admins, or just getting an overview for managers to make business decisions. Webex Contact Center also utilize Connect which involve social channels and chatting, which makes reaching to an agent and get the information needed very fast and easy.

Pros

  • Easy to setup a flow and managing it and make changes without impacting the production system
  • Great analyzer that gives detailed information
  • Provide social channels to reach all the customers regardless of age and social groups
  • Easy to SMS and have communication for customers on the go

Cons

  • Provide an easier way to create reports that are basic and direct
  • A CTI connection between Webex Calling and Webex Contact Center to enable sending calls to flow without the need of a DID
  • More examples of JSON to create formulas in the flows

Likelihood to Recommend

Basically, Webex Contact Center is great with all types of businesses, whether it is a health institution or a bank institution. It is very secure and easy to setup.

Webex Contact Center a great add-on to Webex Calling for complex call flows.

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We migrated to Webex Calling and used the Auto-Attendant and it wasn't quite fitting our needs as we came from Unity Connections which had a lot more features, so we were suggested to use Webex Contact Center, not for the agent portion but for the IVR system, we could then use more granular time of day routing and get the call where it needed to go based on the time of day or night. I gave it an eight because it can be very complex to set up the call flows and you may struggle unless you have help.

Pros

  • Routing the calls to where they need to go.
  • Has decent Text to Speech.
  • Can be as complex as you want it to be.

Cons

  • More options in the Text to Speech area.
  • Better highlighting of the call flows so you can better follow when troubleshooting.
  • Unless already available, it would be great to have a test number to call into and have the call flow light up to indicate your current position in the flow.

Likelihood to Recommend

It depends on your needs. If you only need simple call flows, consider using Cisco Webex Calling Auto-Attendant. If you require more complex call flows and time-of-day routing, you can utilize Cisco Webex Contact Center. You only have to purchase 1 Agent to use the Call Flow Designer.
