Genesys Cloud offers a great experience from a Product and Engineering Perspective

4.0
May 27, 2025
We've been using Genesys Cloud for a year now and overall it's been a really solid experience. The tool itself is packed with features that our users find helpful, and there are many integrations and ways to customize the user interface, and internal settings to fit our needs. From the technical side, working with Genesys Architect has been a great experience too - it's a very intuitive drag-and-drop platform that makes building flows and desigining the contact center architecture really straightforward. It makes the design and configuration process a lot less painful than other tools in the market. Genesys' sales and support team has been good to work with. They're always available, and maintain a friendly and attentive relationship - which is outstanding as a vendor.

Transition to Genesys Cloud Reveals Integration Costs and Feature Shortcomings

3.0
Nov 12, 2025
We chose Genesys Cloud through a selection process where we compared it to other options. We had been on the Pure Connect product prior to the transition and were pretty happy with that product, which certainly also played a part in our final selection. The build out and transition went fairly smooth, but after going live and now having used the product for 3 years, I have been surprised to find some things, things that I considered to be no brainers for a system that had been around already for at least 8 years, were missing in the new system. A poorly designed Messenger platform that doesn't really work as a substitute for a chat option. The inability to transfer ACD calls directly to a business user's voicemail. The inability to include a stand alone phone in a ring group. The inability to stream hold music from a third party provider. These are all examples of options that were all readily available within the Pure Connect software, which Genesys obtained by buying out Interactive Intelligence. All in all, I'm not as impressed with Genesys Cloud as I thought I would be, and although we have signed a new service contract we opted to go with a year to year plan so that we could leave our options open to selecting an alternative in the coming years. That all depends on what Genesys is able to do in the next 6 months or so.

    Very powerful and stable, well-featured platform with continuous improvement.

    Overall, the platform is very strong, and very stable. It is very well featured, and very powerful, without needing to build every component from scratch like in some platforms. This is reflected in the price-per-license. There are always features we would like to see added but generally, most things can be achieved with Genesys Cloud, or by using the third-party APIs. One downside is the level of support. For general tickets, I find the Genesys support is lacking. Things take a long time to get resolved and the quality of updates is often missing.

    Genesys Cloud CX: Intuitive Design, Superior Uptime, and Efficient Supervision

    5.0
    Jun 4, 2025
    We activated Genesys Cloud CX in October 2020. We were handed a blank canvas and were able to configure the system with minimal support from the Genesys team. The design was logical, and the implementation proceeded smoothly. Since that time, we have added additional functions and features, and they have all performed flawlessly. The Supervisor tools are easy to use. Supervisors can quickly and easily pull historical data with only a couple of clicks. System maintenance is simple. We have nearly 200 agents and can maintain the system without a large IT staff (we only have 1). System Uptime well exceeds five 9s!
