Questions we hear

Can't find your answer? We'll go through it in the demo, on your own set-up.

Is Puzzel an alternative to Genesys?

Yes, for many UK and European contact centres. NICE CXone is a large enterprise platform used in more than 150 countries. Puzzel is a European ecosystem for contact centre, AI, ticketing and Workforce Management, with UK and EU hosting and packages for voice-led and omnichannel teams. The better fit depends on your scale, channels and AI plans.

How does pricing compare?

NICE publishes per-agent list prices from $110 to $249 a month, billed monthly in arrears, with consumption-based charges for some AI features (as at November 2026). Puzzel quotes Resolve, Impress and Power to your agents, channels and volumes. To compare like for like, price the same channels, AI features and Workforce Management with both.

How long does it take to go live?
It depends on the scope and complexity of your requirements. Some of our AI products can go live in as little as 2-4 weeks, while a full contact centre implementation typically takes 12-16 weeks. We’ll give you a realistic timeline for your own project during your demo.
Where does Puzzel store customer data?

Puzzel operates its private cloud from data centres in Norway and Sweden, alongside Microsoft Azure regions in the EU/EEA and, for UK customers, the UK. Customer data is not processed outside the EU/EEA/UK unless a customer asks for it, and data residency is covered in our Data Processing Agreement.
