Zoom Revenue Accelerator , the evolution of Zoom IQ, is a conversation intelligence tool, available for users of Zoom Meetings.
RingEX is a great solution if you want reliability and flexibility. We can trust that our phones are just going to work when we need them. Our users love the ability to be able to use the app on their mobile phones or computers when they are on the go. The ability to review the call logs makes troubleshooting very easy. The call quality is also very good.
Well used and appropriate if you are on the Zoom ecosystem for your company and you use Salesforce. It is important to mention that if you book meetings via Outreach, then the meeting will be booked by using the PMI (Personal Meeting Identifier) which is basically a static meeting link your SDRs/AEs have. This PMI is not intended to be used for outbound calls, but more for private 1:1 conversations within your org, thus Zoom Revenue Accelerator has a hard time recording those by default and it needs the user to consent it every time. This is not an issue with Zoom Revenue Accelerator, however, but important to know. If you use systems such as Chili Piper for booking your meetings, you can set up and make sure that every meeting booked with Chili Piper will always be a unique Zoom ID, which is how Zoom Revenue Accelerator is intended to be used, and then the system works properly and all those meetings are recorded by default as that's how Zoom Revenue Accelerator expects you to use the default, one-time, external unique Zoom ID meetings, instead of the more private Personal Meeting ID. All-in-all, just be mindful of the tools in your ecosystem when considering this tool and make sure you tick all the boxes for it working right and the implementation to go well, otherwise you won't get the desired results which, again, isn't a lacking on Zoom Revenue Accelerator's side but your org might just not be using Zoom Revenue Accelerator as intended.
VOIP calling - call quality is excellent and has replaced our traditional landline phones
Video meetings - video quality is great(provided you have a good webcam) and the video features(multiple hosts, screen sharing, multiple room management) is 2nd to none.
Screen sharing - As an unexpected benefit, the ability to do a screen share has helped our IT crew in being able to remotely diagnose and fix problems with faculty or staff machines.
We are grandfathered into our unlimited toll-free minutes plan. We are very unlikely to switch because of that. It has been the major factor saving us a lot of money compared to switching to other solutions. I don't know any other company that still offers these unlimited plans.
They were working on updating a few of the modules while we were going live, so this made usability difficult to train on once they did go live with those changes. Now that the changes are in place, we have really enjoyed the usability of the platform
It is quite reliable, we have the support of being able to identify failures and escalate it, also monitor the failures that are posted on the web about the status of the failures and evolutions. Its easy start-up and access allow us to have better performance and productivity, which in the long run turns into benefits.
Occasional bandwith issues. In addition to this, I have one individual whose calls are blocked. We were not able to determine whether this was a RingEX or a carrier issue.
I have called RingEX a few times for assistance in setting up call handling or implementing changes in our call handling structure. The wait time to speak with an agent is usually minimal and the ones I have spoken to are excellent at walking me thru what changes I am trying to make as well as ensuring I understand what is being done so I can handle it myself next time if the need arises.
If someone has an existing system I tell them to keep that running initially and keep RingEX separate initially until the system is configured and tested to one's satisfaction. After testing and configuration is completed, then roll over the main phone numbers to the new RingEX system. I've seen one person who immediately flipped over to RingEX without properly configuring/testing the software and had many issues with missed customer calls until I helped him sort out his configuration.
During the tender process, we met with several other vendors. During this phase, we realized that RingEX was the only vendor we were investigating, and it was its own telecom provider – instead of offering phone software running on someone else’s network. So, we figured, ‘Why not cut out the middleman and partner with a cloud communication provider that also knows how to run a phone network?' More than any other cloud communication vendor, RingEX seemed to understand what we wanted. They listened to our needs and came back with a proposed solution that proved they heard us. They never tried to sell us on bells and whistles they knew we didn’t need. That’s what you want in a tech partner.
The features these sales enablement tools provide are pretty much the same in the aspect of usability and functionality. The advantage Zoom IQ gets over others is easy of integrating it with the default communication and collaboration tool from Zoom. Keeping things connected helps in better insights and value add.
We have 75 users and 85 phones on the system and have yet to have any noticeable outages. The system just works all of the time without issues. Our old VOIP system on Voyant would go out all the time for multiple hours. RingEX is much more stable and reliable.
