The ability to schedule and forecast real time great for our environment. Would like to see better forecasting model for omni-channel.
It is always loading or lagging and, combined with all of the drop downs and tabs, makes for a very frustrating experience even when trying to accomplish a simple task.
The agent dashboard is great. Agent experience is very nice, they enjoy the ability to see their schedules and flexibility to change their breaks.
Can be difficult to admin. Establishing new FG's and SG's or group allowances can be very confusing and is an overly complicated multi step process.
Easy use and the good performance, I'm happy to use the solution. Try this solution is make me feels more easy to staff our agents with a complex customers forcasts.
Sometimes my leave days are cancelled because system allows many people to overbook leave on same day.
Ability to schedule reports and download them later is a great feature. Ability to normalize for holidays is great.
The aplication sometimes has slow performance also this aplication has a problem, Automatic log outs.
Excellent user interface and allows for easy edits of timecards and punches for all employees. The product is easy to use and provides great flexibility for the work environment.
This was the worst implementation I have ever gone through, it was worse that SAP, which is very sad. I could go on and on, but I won't.
The ease of use with the finger reader and software has been a great benefit. We are an auto dealership with sales and technicians, the ease of use is a great benefit to people not tech savvy.
The interface is really slow and some of the buttons are in strange menus. The whole program is just a pain to use and most people will avoid it unless necessary.
The other great experience is the people - just about everyone we've worked with is amazing, from the implementation teams to the technical support staff.
I'm not sure if it's just at my location but sometimes there will be an error when I clock in and have to wait a couple of seconds for the message to disappear.
This software is user friendly and helps my company to streamline the HR tasks. The price of the software is very affordable and the customer service is also great.
Makes me sick to my stomach thinking we are stuck with this for at least the next 3-4 years. Company seems too large to be nimble.
Bernard: Hi, I'm Bernard contact center as a service consultant. And I rate the Alvaria Workforce Management a four out of five. For more information about Alvaria and its solutions click below. Before using Alvaria, a solution involving a customized homegrown solution with Microsoft dynamics was being used without the power of a true workforce engagement management solution. And so Alvaria was by far more appealing for a larger enterprise in general. Alvaria is the most logical solution for an aspect, a branded contact center, which is where this essentially originated from many years ago. It's very tightly integrated into the workflows. And as a result, you can create the workforce engagement models for voice and for email and for chats and other forms of communications in a contact center. And it works extremely well. Alvaria's solutions are really designed to be used by professionals with experience in the workforce engagement environment. And so if you are a professional, who's worked in the workforce management field and know the lingo and the overall metrics. It's very easy to get started. I would say that this is a solution that's really more geared to the more sophisticated, larger enterprises and for a mid-size type business it may not be the best solution for you. And there's some other alternatives that may be suited to a business that wants very basic requirements. For those evaluating a workforce engagement solution or workforce management solution. I would suggest that you work with a workforce management consultant who can assist you in setting up the overall workflow, logic and business goals for the actual configuration. For most mid-sized companies, you might want to look for solutions from NICE and from Verint and a few others, or Calabrio that are more geared to the more cost effective cloud-based mid-market solutions. However, the Alvaria solution definitely is one of the leaders and will meet your requirements, especially for the larger enterprises.
John R.: My name is John. I'm a Corporate Director of Human Resources of a company called Colorvision. We have about 325 employees, and we are in the photo technology industry. And I would give UKG a rating of five out of five because it is a wonderful platform that has worked very seamlessly for our team. We were previously using Paycom, and the experience was that the support level really wasn't what we needed it to be. We had some people that were not as overly technically savvy, and it really just wasn't working from a support standpoint. So the RFP went out. We flipped over into UKG based on the selling of their support, which since we have contracted with them, has been exceeded within fulfillment. We went into UKG Ready for a couple of reasons. Number one was the experience we were having with our previous provider, Paycom, and the support that we were receiving. But second, it was based on the support that was being sold to us. The sales rep, great relationship that really kind of dug in to learn what it was we were looking for, what we wanted the system to do, and they really crafted the system and then especially the pricing around what was going to work for our business at that point in time. The implementation of UKG was amazing. Their support team handheld us throughout the entire process. When there were questions, we had resources that we could talk to, a number of people involved in the process, and it was just virtually seamless. Even moving from Paycom into UKG, the imports and where the data was getting stored and housed, it was just such a relatively simple process. Yes, there was a lot of work to do to get it set up, but it didn't really feel like work because UKG was so supportive and helpful throughout that process. My recommendation would be there's a lot of companies out there that are going to sell what I would call a pipe dream. They're going to sell the stars and the moon and probably land somewhere in the middle of an ocean with the fulfillment of that. And that has not at all been my experience with UKG. I've had some questions throughout our time with UKG, and I've actually reached out to some of the highest senior levels inside of UKG and gotten personal responses from people who would normally delegate that out to their assistants. They really live and practice what they call 'your partner for life' with their model, and I actually feel that. They are invested in our success and our use of the system and getting out of it what we need. And I would highly recommend anybody that is considering UKG, take that in mind, because they are absolutely delivering that. They are not selling a pipe dream. They are selling a reality.
