I like the flexibility and ease of use Aspect Workforce Management allows. It is a very straight forward system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

Sometimes the configuration constraints of AWM are a bit cumbersome. It has great flexibility within the parameters set but sometimes I would like to step outside of those boundaries and perform other tasks that are not allowed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

Great tool to work with! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As an Analyst for JetBlue, We use AWM for everything from scheduling to team member management. One benefit is it provides the ability for housing all of the information in one central location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

The ability to make effective intra-day decisions including live OT and voluntary unpaid time off. The ability to quickly optimize breaks, lunches, and other off-phone activities as business needs change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

One feature that would be nice for the purposes of monitoring my real-time team's performance would be some tracking of acknowledging and responding to RTA alerts. If RTA could linked into Skype or Teams to provide template messages to agents for alerts that would be great as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

If you looking for an all in one solution NICE and Aspect are the two main options in the marketplace but Aspect is much easier to use on a daily basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Improved staffing requirements and scheduling which has greatly improved our occupancy and helped reduce the overall FTE count required to meet business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

We have had some difficulties with communication with aspect, 18 months into our contract. We often need help or some guidance to support our business needs. It’s sometimes difficult to be a happy customer when aspect can be quite rigid with the support. Regardless of this the product itself is good and Aspect seem on board with feedback and generally seem to do what they can to highlight difficult areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

I have touched on it in my previous answer but the support structure is very rigid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are now able to reliably track the time we need to spend on a number of activities we do. We are also able to manage our agents better with WFM and how they are using their time. It’s provided some great insights and ignited some good conversations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

Best forecasting and Scheduling system in the market today. The end user interface is solid and Aspect has made vast improvements on this end in the last 5 years. Back office/Chat forecasting tool is superior to all competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

Support isn't what it used to be. Seldom is there a first call resolution when you call their help desk. Also long range forecasting/capacity planning is lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Make sure your company invests in the subscription service for training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aspect Workforce?

I like the ability to auto-run reports and query database to build custom reporting. I am generally able to get what I need in terms of reporting and analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aspect Workforce?

I would like to see a more functional automated forecasting process and a more robust shift creation tool. We have had more accurate forecasts and are able to create more diverse schedules doing it manually outside of the tool which is cumbersome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Aspect Workforce:

Aspect does a great job. I would recommend avoiding customization where possible since that can add future complexity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
