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.
