Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Amazon Connect
- Telephony is charged separately from the platform, so the $0.038 per minute voice rate is not the whole cost of a call
- Every channel is metered individually: $0.010 per chat message, $0.080 per email and $0.014 per SMS
- Rates vary by region and by third-party provider, so a published figure is indicative rather than final
- Cost tracks contact volume, which makes forecasting hard for a queue with seasonal peaks
