A flexible solution that improves our administrative efficiency
We use Jive-n for followups on details regarding purchase orders, shipping documents, and other information We are able to handle more than one hundred POs at any given time with their shipping docs and info, with only one person in charge. This solution provides great flexibility of permission…

Schedule swaps have improved my daily flexibility but real-time stats and visuals still need work
For us, I think the improvement we need for NICE CXone is to be able to swap our office days, as that is the only thing we cannot change. Currently, we still have to request assistance from our managers. It is probably an organizational block more than a software issue, but anything else seems perfect and I do not think there is anything else to change. I think that there is a bit of a delay in the accuracy and reliability of the output I see in NICE CXone, as I mentioned before. The page tracking and cases, interactions tracking is delayed. I think NICE CXone is a nice system, but if it could update the aesthetics on the display just to make it more easy on the eye, I think that would be great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Jive-n offers the best curated experience of the social-based content for enterprises."
"In comparison to other platforms, Jive-n provides the fastest way to integrate new affiliates into your organization."
"We recently rebranded our organization and used this tool as our primary channel."
"Colleagues are more informed, it is easier to find content, and silo breaking has significantly improved our collaboration."
"Jive came out on top for feature, price, and ability to meet regulatory needs."
"We are able to handle more than one hundred POs at any given time with their shipping docs and info, with only one person in charge."
"The platform works well to collaborate with creating documents or media for a specific goal."
"Various business groups were able to collaborate effectively using this tool."
"NICE CXone has impacted my organization positively by empowering managers, team leaders, and supervisors to be more autonomous and to proactively manage their team in real time."
"MindTouch seemed to deliver the complete package, and we've not looked back."
"inContact has helped our organization greatly by allowing us to see at a glance which agents are available to receive calls and those who are not, we are able to see why not."
"NICE CXone has had a HUGE impact on our contact center, taking us from a place where we had no visualization on contact volumes, handle times, ASA, etc. to a place where we have full visualization on all metrics and can manage and staff our center as necessary."
"If you are wondering if you or your company should use NICE inContact, I would suggest reaching out to them and asking for a demonstration."
"Because of the simplicity and the reliability, NICE CXone is a very nice, easy-to-use product."
"Converting our PDFs to MindTouch is like adding a huge new feature to our software product line and it has, so far, had a great approval rate amongst our clients."
"The system is very flexible and powerful, especially for organizations wanting to control their environment."
 

Cons

"Jive-n can improve their integration, plugins and democratize their configuration abilities."
"Standard Silver technical support is similar to standard support by all vendors, i.e., not quick enough."
"We had major performance issues when our user base went up."
"The mobile app could be better."
"A visual navigator would be very useful as many colleagues have an issue to find their way and connect the dots."
"Create a better way of adding users in bulk by email address."
"The search engine could be improved and also provide some kind of indexing."
"Stream activity could be better organized."
"The audio quality in NICE CXone has room for improvement, as I experience issues like diffused calls and crackling audio."
"The development tools in NICE CXone could be better, as there are some pain points."
"Your docs go on their servers and getting them out is difficult, especially if you want to switch to another authoring format, e.g., Markdown. There are no converters and an automated extraction of the docs from the CMS is not available."
"I was using a very old version (2010), and the user interface was bad making it difficult to perform simple tasks."
"One area where CXone could improve is in creating a more streamlined, user-friendly interface."
"Compared to challengers such as Zoom, which seem more cost-effective, NICE CXone's suite of products is very modular, so as they provide new services, you have to add to your existing package and this balloons your costs since there's an additional license needed to use the new tools."
"However, Stage labels do nothing. They simply label the page with the Stage name."
"Occasionally, the system runs slow and will kick us out of Max, which then has to be restarted, and can cause issues as our call center deals with time sensitive phone calls."

Jive vs Sharepoint vs Drupal Commons
At Mediacurrent we often get requests to compare Drupal to other platforms used for intranet sites and social business platforms (like https://dev.twitter.com/ for example). This is often referred to as “Social Business Software”, which has grown in popularity in recent years. I decided to do a…
