    We normally have an amazing time with Five9 but when their systems go down they are really bad at communication and support during that time and that is extremely frustrating.

    Pros

    Five9 is a very powerful and reliable cloud contact center that helps us achieve all of our business objectives for our customers.

    Cons

    Price and some parts of the system are still Java based. It has created issues regarding sending and receiving data because Five9 is stuck in the past with their API, which needs to change.

    We were able to realize that we had an issue with ACW and Hold time throughout our department that was having a negative impact on our customer experience. With that insight, we were able to be strategic with our coaching which had a positive impact on customer experience and ultimately customer loyalty.

    Pros

    I love the reporting capabilities that five9 provides. There's so much data. From handle time, ACW, Hold time, Idle time, whether or not an agent disconnects first, etc. The reporting gives you a deeper insight which allows you to coach metrics that will increase the productivity on your team.

    Cons

    Connection issues cause frequent system issues. Dropped calls and missing call recordings are common issues.

    The overall experience is great as you can focus on running your business rather than fighting with software. The multiple modes of dialer is extremely helpful too.

    Pros

    After several trials with other dialer systems and getting out of a contract with another dialer company, Five9 is simply one of the best systems for large organizations. Not only is it user friendly and easy to set up and management, the reporting functions are great and customizable. So easy to add/remove users and update skills. Uploading leads is a synch.

    Cons

    The ability to view agent chat sessions needs to be improved. It appears there is functionality there but in fact, you must log on as the agent to view. Upon doing so, you must kick the agent out of production.

    Reviewed on 28/07/2022

    Pros

    How easy it is to get started and the tools that they offer you to customize the skills, teams that you need, to keep it organized and generate better reports.

    Cons

    It would be better if Five9 could add some options to keep the historical data for more time or at least select what set of data can be stored longer.
