Pros

  • Brilliant Solution from an evolving provider. A passionate team behind the scenes.

  • Our contacts are responsive and care, you can't ask for more. I like that the platform continues to evolve as we use it.

  • Also the webinars and industry meeting they host are a great benefit that I'd encourage anyone to take advantage of.

Cons

  • Clunky and difficult to use more complex features.

  • Reviewing the data in the lists you use is very difficult.

  • In the past when the system has been down it has affected the business across all campaigns and in return affected the clients and agents costing the business a significant loss of revenue.

"Max Contact Review"

Overall: Great overall experience and relationship with our Account Manager and the Support teams. The product developments and updates makes MC a game changing solution that we could happily recommend.

Pros: Overall functionality and ease of use is the most popular standout feature of MC. The additional features and vast reports the system provides is an added benefit that allows the business to strategise and make informed decisions.

Cons: In the past when the system has been down it has affected the business across all campaigns and in return affected the clients and agents costing the business a significant loss of revenue. However issues were escalated and rectified.

Switched From: CircleLoop
Reasons for Switching to MaxContact: Productivity and efficiency alongside in-depth reporting and strategy building.

"MaxContact review "

Overall: Since working with MaxContact the full setup process has been one of the best ive ever seen. Max pays attention to its customers and makes sure the system works the way we want to across multiple campaigns. They take time to tailor the system to your business and get things working exactly how you want. Standout staff has to be [sensitive content hidden] and [sensitive content hidden] who are credits to the business for sure.

Pros: -Easy to use from admin and agent side -Great integration options for other systems to work seamlessly -Fantastic reporting options -Easy data input and control

Cons: Ive not come across any cons, happy with everything.

"The Max Contact Experience"

Pros: Maxcontact has been a pleasure to use both on the agent end of the experience as well as the administrator end. The reports are extensive and if you find that they're lacking in anyway you can either build your own custom reports or request it be done for you by their excellent support staff. There are all the features you could hope to use on an OMNI channel platform from standard dialling, with the ability to tailor this to your needs on a campaign by campaign basis, but also webchat, text messages and emails. They're also on the front foot when it comes to AI implementation bringing forward features that will benefit any business that decides to use them. But to touch on a previously mentioned point I think one of the biggest and best selling factors for Maxcontact is their support staff, they're always friendly knowledgeable and happy to help with what might seem trivial tasks and in general resolve most issues in a timely manor which is essential to any company having issues with their dialler. Also the webinars and industry meeting they host are a great benefit that I'd encourage anyone to take advantage of.

Cons: Its hard to really pick fault with our experience at Maxcontact, the only real issue that we've had other than the odd outage (which has been few and far between) is that the webchat and email/text features can't be used along side a auto dial campaign.

Switched From: Connex One
Reasons for Switching to MaxContact: Poor support and service on the end of ConnexOne and promised the world which they couldn't deliver.

"Good Product, Good Support"

Overall: good product, good support - esp from [sensitive content hidden] who really led the deployments and after care.

Pros: All changes can be done in a graphical user friendly system. Support is available when required. call recording hostage was catered for without the need to store locally or offline.

Cons: Dashboard creation - however this isn't so much an issue with the dashboard but there was some confusion in governing that to prevent users changing this and being able to display different dashboards using a drop-down I believe at the time was not an out-of-the-box feature and had to completed by max support. This got done usually though and isn't an issue.

Switched From: Aspect Software
Reasons for Switching to MaxContact: Billing, regular outages, legacy system reliant on regular call recording exports but also on-prem telephony provided.

"Well thought out product"

Overall: Positive overall. Constantly looking to improve the product and involve customers with new ideas.

Pros: Easy to use, lots of ideas for new features in the pipeline. Support are quick to respond to issues.

Cons: Issues can take a while to fix, especially minor more UI type bugs.

Switched From: TouchStar Dialler
Reasons for Switching to MaxContact: Lack of new features and support. Product had reached end of life.

"Max Contact"

Pros: We have worked with [sensitive content hidden] for a number of years, although we don't fit the stereotypical mould, [sensitive content hidden] goes above and beyond to try and ensure that our requirements are met.

Cons: There can be a few glitches or bugs in the system that can be quite timely to get resolved.

Pros: How agile the product can be and is always evolving. The team are always on hand to help with any issues we come across.

"Great product- Great support."

Overall: Our experience has been first class. Setup was efficient and well planned by their team. There was consistent and valuable support throughout the experience and post setup. Any support tickets raised are dealt with promptly and eficiently.

Pros: It is user friendly. The team in MaxContact are very knowledgeable and supportive both in relation to the setup process and after we went live with the product.

Cons: Can't think of anything. We're very happy with the overall service.

Reasons for Switching to MaxContact: More control in relation to data retention.

"Good Dialler"

Overall: Decent. Certainly better than our last provider. But we have seen better in the market. For the price point, you really can't go wrong with Max

Pros: The ease of getting a new agent set up and added to the system to make calls

Cons: Clunky and difficult to use more complex features... Seems like there is always an "if". If you do this, you have to do X somewhere else for it to work properly, without any prompts to do this.

"Max Contact Dialler"

Overall: Our overall experience with Max Contact is a good one and this is reflected in the fact that we have stayed with them for years and continue to use their services.

Pros: As an overall product, Max Contact is the best that all of our teams (agents, admin, it, management etc) have used as a Dialler - and we have tried a few different ones in the past.

Cons: Although it has lots of good features, if there's something which would only benefit your own business or a few businesses instead of the overall customer base, it can be time consuming or costly for Max Contact to implement them.

"Dialler usage"

Overall: Good, they are very much a company that emphasise teaching you how to set up the dialler and use the features but if you do require any help the support has always been great.

Pros: Plenty of features you can use. Not just a software to churn through a high volume of calls. They had set it up to really help with data managing and reporting when dealing with large volumes.

Cons: Reviewing the data in the lists you use is very difficult. Have started to implement lots of new features to give you more options with the data but still not perfect.

"Easy to Use and when not support is there"

Overall: Good, learnt lots about it and find the report i need when i need it and managed to see real time results to help with this

Pros: It can be easy to use and you can create a report or dashboard even if it doesn't exist to make you job easier without struggling. If you cannot do something then support is there to assist and record and play back till you get it

Cons: Sometime it can be drawn out when only a couple of clicks can be done for same resolution

"Utility Renewals Ltd - Max Contact review"

Overall: Right from initial discussions before purchasing the software to deployment the team at Max couldnt do enough for us - There were a few bespoke features we needed adding into the software before it went live, Max got these completed in a timely manner and offered support throughout. Ongoing the support function they offer is good, queries and issues are addressed very quickly and problems solved. We have a good relationship with our account manager and he is more than willing to address any issues we may have, put forward any potential suggestions we have in terms of product development etc.

Pros: The whole layout of Max contact is completely different to the old on-premise dialler we used to use - Its far more up to date and alot more user friendly. Very little training is needed for the end user moving from existing platforms as it is so easy to use and self explanatory. For me the IVR maker is another massive pro to this software - It is so easy to use and create quite complicated IVR's using literally a drag and drop function.

Cons: The reporting function within Max is in constant development. Historical software we have used has enabled us to write reports from SQL queries this isn't a function within Max so there are pre set reports to run - If there are any reports missing Max are willing to write these reports and publish within your instance.

Switched From: TouchStar Dialler
Reasons for Switching to MaxContact: Touchstar was becoming dated and the Hardware we had installed on premise was beginning to fail so we had the option of making the purchase of new hardware or making the jump to a cloud hosted dialler and we could future proof the business - This has turned out to be one of the best investments the company has made allowing us to continue to provide a service to our customers through home working which would have been very difficult to do with older, more out dated systems.
