The basic configuration allows for highly customized deployments and is scalable to a large enterprise. Reporting and access to data are critical for our use and very robust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The forecasting algorithm is dated, and additional flexibility in business rule design for WFO would be nice. The flexible scheduling options could use some more development, and the trades functionality needs to be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

Alvaria Workforce is a very robust database for our workforce management needs. We can emulate routing and staffing workflows to ensure proper staffing requirements. I like that Alvaria Education service is more readily available due to subscription pricing being more affordable. My whole WFM team can now take advantage of these services.

Best module to get quick daily info is the Employee Datacenter! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

Very difficult to get a live person when calling the Alvaria Tech services for Workforce Management platform. I often am routed to someone within Tech not supporting the Workforce platform who will take my info to send to someone else for review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

The platform provides an easy way to forecast, optimize, and schedule your workforce based off a large number of factors, it has pretty decent integration with a large number of ACD's and other applications. Support is generally fast when you need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

Interface can be complicated and a bear to setup/ configure. You'll most likely need a full time resource just to keep up with the permissions. Updating is annoying as well and there always seems to be a new version coming out 2 weeks after you upgrade... (This is not the case with the cloud offering) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Aspect helps us optimize our workforce with agent coaching on adherence, IDP based scheduling, forecasting all in one place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Moving over to Alvaria from a different workforce, my company was very nervous as was I. The platform is hands down 100% easier than the previous one we used. Great feedback from associates using it as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

The newest cloud version of the program has considerably improved overall system performance and response times over the previously on premises warehoused servers that fueled our prior installation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

The multiskill capabilities of the system, while functional, are not as good at predictive capability when compared to some of the competitors in the space. This is the space for which I would like to see greater effort applied to bring parity to this product vs. the likes of their competition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

The forecasting component while it should work for most companies is difficult when toggling a complex inbound environment in where there are single and that may or may not include outbound blended intervals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use Alvaria to schedule resources both manually and through the automatic feature, depending on the size of the department. The forecasting team (Which I manage the Collections side) can create a simple text file for the schedulers to utilize and import to Alvaria for scheduling purposes.
