Something that needs to be worked on aspect is when you summit vto it takes forever to get approved. I’m not sure if it’s the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I personally like the encompassing employee engagement and business needs can now be both served within the same platform, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

I find the forecasting can be a very tricky element to master. We do our initial forecast outside the system and our interval and daily splits within it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've yet to realise the impact of adherence, however, we have already noticed a key swing in shifts that the system is producing that we never knew was a requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

Speaking to a few colleagues from different businesses it was reassuring to see that others had similar issues to ourselves but on a more inspiring approach some were way ahead and stated how much time they've got back from the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

Nothing really stood out as an issue. Due to the weather it was unfortunate I was unable to stay for the final seat swap to sit with others to understand how they use it for things like colleague engagement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

Take full usage of all the training available as it will just make it more difficult if you don't understand what the tool has to offer.

We started as front office only and now trying to transition to backoffice is harder without the support/training Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

The level of detail and ability to configure as required for the organization. Set service level, operational hours, agent performance, historical data, shrinkage view etc is very helpful. It has the ability to have a parent-child relationship between contact types linked to agents that are skilled to handle them. It has routing sets (groups) that is configurable by single skilled or multi-skilled. Forecast and schedule integration and administration is easy. Features like tracking Multi channel performance, shrinkage analysis and setting staffing tolerances is very helpful for large contact centers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

Ability to access data apart from the scheduled reports section. Reporting from the tool is not compatible or up-to-date with the existing enterprise data architecture. Standard APIs not readily available. Agent schedule integration and connectivity to a scheduling software is not standard. UI is outdated and has latency issues despite being a cloud system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

Easy to use, flexible workforce management tool for large and multi-skilled contact centers. Make sure your company's data infrastructure can easily integrate with the system for reporting and data needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Problems such as intraday and long term staffing requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

Quite honestly - I most like the 'Help' functionality. From anywhere and in any tab, or sub menu, you can find specific help to that section or topic or entry. the 'Help' then allows you to drill down to your specific concern, or point of confusion. I found myself not only learning more about the product but more about workforce and call center mechanics as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

With smaller lines of business, small data, can sometimes generate some questionable data points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

Read the whitepapers - I found them very helpful. If possible ask sales representative if you can reach out to support to see how effective they can be. Talk to others who have used the product. ensure one person from your company attends the Aspect Conferences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aspect Workforce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Rank and preference / performance based rank and preference scheduling. Love the flexibility the 'Multi' preference sets can allow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

Enjoy the ability to manipulate stats as it pertains to the call center. Next day stats are important. Intraday enjoys real time stats. It's the primary way the callcenter checks on who is where they should be. Shift bids works flawlessly. There are many ways for a client to configure their operation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

We don't have a live data-feed for all of our clients that we serve, but that is more to the point of the clients we support. We are hoping to get one in 2019. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

Highly recommend the software. It is a well-rounded suite of tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aspect Workforce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Readily available to have next day reports. Improves decision making, hands-down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

What I like best is that after you get used to the interface and the way all the parts work as a whole, it all makes sense. I really like the way the upgrades look and feel, in line with changing technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

I dislike that in more complex routing configurations, it's not always easy to know what configuration settings to use and what they will do. The Help menu has always been a challenge for me. It needs more real life examples and sometimes it feels like a big circle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aspect Workforce solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our complex routing configuration staffing analysis has helped us to understand future staffing needs to a greater extent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
