The Copy Schedule Activities reduces time spent for changing activities. Agents are not able to cancel an approved request in the Time Off Request area.
I cannot speak about the difference for the QM software. My main use is of the WFM software. A few of the features were "nice to have" features, but version 9.3 had some "deficiencies". The main problem was not being able to run scenarios in a pseudo scheduling area, so the way Calabrio is now, agents can possibly see test scenarios. Another problem is the Time Off Request area. Agents are not able to cancel an approved request through this area. The sorting/filtering could be improved upon greatly. We are scheduled to upgrade to version 10.0, which will resolve many of the issues we do not like about the current version that we are using. Update: We are still on version 9.3 and looking forward to upgrading.

Offers built-in AI functionality, broad third-party integrations, out-of-the-box AI features and designed specifically for contact centers
The best thing about Genesys Cloud CX is that it's designed specifically for contact centers and offers robust reporting capabilities. It also has a great marketplace for integrations with different third-party applications like Salesforce, Zendesk, and HubSpot. I appreciate how easy it is to integrate with Genesys and utilize its out-of-the-box AI features. Deployment and customization are also easy and straightforward. Furthermore, I like the intelligent routing in Genesys Cloud CX, along with the flexibility between skill-based and queue-based routing. These are valuable, contact-center-focused features. Finally, if the customer is already using AWS and has applications there, Genesys Cloud CX integrates easily with the AWS ecosystem.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The Copy Schedule Activities has been a favorite tool. It reduces time spent when I need to make changes which are identical to multiple agents' schedules."
"The integration of CTI within the IT system is a particularly valuable feature."
"Predictive engagement and gamification are valuable features with good inbound functionality."
"Genesys Cloud is an excellent platform."
"Genesys Cloud CX has very good training material and training – instructor-led training, self-paced training, and documentation – things are very organized and helpful."
"The latest version and updates have been great. It really has everything we need."
"What's most valuable in Genesys Cloud is that it's a complete cloud solution, so it's reliable and 99.99% available. It's also elastic. Genesys Cloud also has chatbots, which I find valuable."
"Its comprehensive single application includes everything from reporting to IVR and workflows."
"The most valuable features include being an omnichannel solution with customer journey insights, full reporting, and continuous updates based on consumer feedback through their portal."
 

Cons

"Give agents the ability to cancel approved requests for time off. Vacation plans do actually change in the real world."
"Being able to "publish" or rerun the schedule for only one agent would be ideal."
"The tool's pricing could be more flexible, and there should be clearer indications of consumption and fair usage policies."
"Process automation in Genesys Cloud is an area for improvement. It's quite a new feature and still has room for improvement."
"The cost needs to be improved, and it should be easier to integrate."
"I would like to see some of that functionality or features from Genesys Engage added to Genesys Cloud."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's pricing structure, as it is perceived to be less flexible than other solutions."
"Issues can happen during technical troubleshooting, which is completely out of our hands compared to the on-premise solution."
"The whole process of creating an agent is quite long and automating quite a bit of that would be very helpful."
"Pricing is the biggest criterion for improvement. If I compare the pricing between Amazon Connect and Genesys Cloud CX, there is a huge difference."
