2. • Limited platform functionality and limits the integration
with legacy applications, either through an agent console
or API’s
• Doesn’t do well in B2B service centers where escalations,
complex knowledge, multiple or product-level SLA’s
and/or a large number of agents are the requirements
• Offers an open platform in which customers can access
their underlying data through an API, although many report
challenges in doing this on a large scale.
• Doesn’t do well in complex global environment.
Environments with complex escalation, collaboration
across department/groups or broad global foot prints are
not areas of strength.
