Implementing Contact Center wasn't terrible. It is the issues that were discovered after implementation that are causing headaches for staff in the organization.

Webex Contact Center Likes & Dislikes

Like

The administration of agent creation to call flow build is solid and not overly complicated. I really appreciate that features are consistently improved and rolled out without having to wait for a full software release.

Like

I like the updated UI and presentation, dark mode feature was also nice. Overall it is a user friendly experience

Like

Ease or deployment, and feature rich. Integrations with so many third party solutions, APIs that make senses

Dislike

The downside to being linked to a cloud-based service is that large-scale issues can affect the entire contact center, leaving few options for mitigation. Agent to Agent calls via extension is an issue when using WebRTC. Agents were accustomed to calling each other directly using Finesse but using the WxCC Desktop app and drop down menus was a more clunky alternative. When using the Webex App to make an outbound call requires the agent to answer an inbound call before the call is extended outbound to the PSTN. This is a very confusing and counter intuitive process. I look forward to a solution that would incorporate the Webex App within the WxCC Desktop to avoid the agent having to use multiple Apps. It is also very hard to explain the difference between Webex Contact Center Desktop and Webex Desktop App. We attempted to use only the WxCC Desktop but found it necessary to use the Webex App in order to have personal extensions that were accessible using DID phone numbers.

Dislike

issues are with functionality when making calls/transfers within Contact Center to another Contact Center queue within the organization. we've reported this issue several times, but the biggest complaint is not being able to make calls in contact center or transferring to another queue within the organization. Been told its being investigated and known, but months later and this is still occurring to Contact Center agents. The last couple times I've created TAC requests, the agent had stood me up for a troubleshooting appointment and took days to respond. We also have an issue where calls are being dropped when coming from outside the organization, which is also being worked on by Dev team for WebEx/Cisco.

Dislike

AI is coming fast and Cisco has responded with a great new set of features and AI Components- Pricing models are tricky to understand

    Inclusive Contact Center Platform Offers Deep Resources and Extensive Integrations

    5.0
    Sep 30, 2025
    It is one of the most inclusive platforms for contact centers. When you see how easy it is to manage, build and deploy, you will have earned the highest praise from your admins. It is very flexible and comes with more than enough embedded solutions and partners that its no wonder it has been chosen in the top. We have been on this now for almost four years coming from on premise. The support and resources for gaining the best use and deployment is extremely deep with their engineers and sales and support.

    Ultimately excellent with some caveats for custom CRMs.

    The contact center itself is top notch - very easy to understand and set up from scratch. Combined with IVRs, attendant consoles and hunt groups, this has severely reduced the amount of unnecessary call transfers to get our customers to where they need to go. However, it does have some significant trouble when integrating with customer CRMs. If you have another big-name third party CRM, it works swimmingly. But with a custom CRM, be prepared for a much longer implementation process while you try to get the API to talk. All in all, I would absolutely recommend this product.
