As a Cisco SolutionsPlus partner that’s a direct replacement for Cisco WFO, we want to make sure companies understand the migration paths as WFO goes end-of-life. Cisco announced end of life for Webex WFO. The last day to order it was July 25, 2026. Current customers can renew or add licenses until July 30, 2027, and Cisco will support active subscriptions through July 31, 2031 (Cisco EOL notice).
If Webex WFO runs your recording, quality management, scheduling, or speech analytics, the replacement decision belongs on this year’s plan.
| Milestone | Date |
| End-of-life announcement | July 1, 2026 |
| End of sale | July 25, 2026 |
| Last date to renew or add to a subscription | July 30, 2027 |
| Last date of support | July 31, 2031 |
The notice covers the full Webex WFO suite: call recording, quality management, analytics and transcription, workforce management, storage, and reporting add-ons. Cisco points customers to compatible products in its partner catalog, or to the AI features built into Webex Contact Center.
Most teams are weighing three choices. Each one moves your data, your forms, and your users, so it is worth comparing them on what you get at the end.
Since you are migrating either way, this is the right moment to look at what else is on the market.
| Cisco WFO module | Moves to | What you gain |
| Workforce management | SuccessKPI WFM | Machine learning forecasts, real-time adherence, and long-term capacity planning on Webex |
| Quality management and recording | SuccessKPI QM | Automated scoring on the questions you configure, plus calibration, disputes, and coaching |
| Speech and text analytics | Speech & Text and the GenAI suite | Deep Prompt, Auto Scoring, and Topic Miner across your conversations |
| Reporting and data | BI and Command Center | Webex data joined with other CCaaS, CRM, HRIS, and survey data |
Here is when you should choose SuccessKPI over your existing setup:
1. You Need Advanced AI-Powered Quality Management (QA)
2. You Want Real-Time Agent Coaching & Guidance
3. You Require Deep Executive Analytics and Cross-Platform BI
If your biggest pain points are insights, compliance, and agent performance. If your scheduling is relatively simple but you are blind to why customers are calling, what your agents are saying, or how to improve first-contact resolution, SuccessKPI is the right fit.
If you choose to migrate to SuccessKPI, the platform introduces features focused heavily on modern, cloud-native automation and AI, which differs from legacy WFO tools:
You keep what you built. Your evaluation forms, scoring weights, categories, compliance phrases, and KPI definitions become the starting point for the new setup.
You score far more than a sample. Most QA teams review a small slice of calls by hand. SuccessKPI scores interactions automatically against your own forms, and human and AI agents land on the same scorecard.
You can ask any question of every conversation. Phrase lists find words. Deep Prompt answers questions such as “Did the agent verify identity before discussing the account?” on every call in scope, and returns the answer as a field you can report on.
You get help during the call. Agent Assist and Playbooks put guidance and compliance prompts in front of agents while the customer is still on the line.
Your reporting reaches past WFO. WFO dashboards show WFO data. SuccessKPI puts Webex queues, IVR, digital channels, speech, QM, and WFM in one data model, then adds the business systems around them.
A phased transition, run side by side
SuccessKPI Professional Services can run the transition with both platforms live, so planners and QA leads can compare results before any team switches over. Your Cisco WFO contract continues through its term.
New interactions can flow into SuccessKPI from go-live. Your existing recordings stay available in Cisco WFO through its term, and we agree on a retention approach that fits your compliance rules. Smaller single-site centers typically finish in a few weeks. Multi-site operations take longer, and the plan is confirmed after discovery.
Start with the module that matters most

Cisco stopped selling Webex WFO on July 25, 2026. Existing customers can renew or add licenses until July 30, 2027, and support for active subscriptions ends July 31, 2031.
The main options are SuccessKPI via SolutionsPlus, Webex Contact Center’s built-in AI tools, or Calabrio ONE purchased directly. SuccessKPI is a strong fit for Webex Contact Center and Webex Calling customers who want WFM, QM, BI analytics, speech and text, and more, in one platform and want the ability to migrate everything at once, or one module at a time.
es. As we understand it, moving to Calabrio ONE still requires a new contract, a new tenant, a data migration, SSO reconfiguration, and a new support path, so it is a migration not completely unlike the other options.
Yes. SuccessKPI connects to Webex Contact Center through an included connector and syncs agents, teams, queues, and interaction data.
Yes. Teams usually start with the module that matters most, such as QM or WFM, run it side by side with Cisco WFO, and add the rest on the same Webex connection.
New interactions can flow into SuccessKPI from go-live. Existing recordings stay available in Cisco WFO through its term, and the retention approach is agreed during discovery based on your compliance rules.
Smaller single-site centers typically finish in about 4 weeks. Larger multi-site operations take longer. The plan is confirmed after discovery.
Yes. SuccessKPI also works with many other CCaaS players. One strong benefit with that is you may have some of your contact centers using Webex, but others using Genesys, Amazon Connect or someone else, and we can pass information from all CCaaS platforms into our system for a central repository of WFM, QM, analytics, and more.
