Why Teams Switch From Cyara to Agent Testing
Keep real-call rigor, and add agent-level depth: conversation scoring, intent coverage from your docs, and versioned prompt regression.
EVALUATION DEPTH
Score Audio and Conversation
Cyara scores audio with PESQ and POLQA. Agent Testing also scores phone calls for latency and interruptions, and chat and voice conversations on 9 quality metrics.
Try for free
- DNSMOS MOS scoring on every inbound call
- Stereo recording exposes overlaps and interruptions
- Chat and voice scored for hallucination and bias
INTENT & SCENARIOS
Cover Every Intent and Edge
Generate 60 to 100+ chat and voice scenarios from your PRDs, Jira, and Confluence, and up to 20 phone scenarios at a time, then score intent recognition on live calls.
Try for free- Intent Recognition Accuracy on live phone calls
- 60 to 100+ chat and voice scenarios from your docs
- 200+ voices and 15 noise presets on phone calls
REGRESSION & RELEASE
Regress Every Prompt Change
Prompt and scenario versioning flags affected tests when a prompt changes, and every chat, voice or phone run rolls up to a Green, Yellow, Red go-live verdict.
Start Free Testing- Versioning flags scenarios hit by prompt changes
- Threshold verdicts snapshotted at call time
- Red team: 9 categories, 3 intensity levels
IVR Testing
IVR Tests You Can Run on TestMu AI Instead of Cyara
Cyara tests IVR journeys with Velocity and voice quality with Voice Assure. Agent Testing places real calls to your IVR's phone number with a simulated caller, so nothing changes on the IVR side. Generate up to 20 scenarios at a time with personas and languages, or write them from your existing test cases, then run them as a suite or on a cron schedule. Keypad (DTMF) inputs are captured in the transcript, every call is scored on 30+ metrics such as first call resolution and containment rate, and the Go-Live Assessment returns a Green, Yellow or Red verdict.
Methodology
How This Comparison Was Built
We scored each capability against Cyara's public product pages (Voice Assure, Velocity, Cruncher, Pulse, Botium, AI Trust, Number Trust) and its blog, alongside hands-on runs of TestMu AI's Agent Testing. Where Cyara publishes specifics, such as its 145+ country real-call footprint, PESQ and POLQA audio scores and Cruncher's 40,000+ interaction load scale, the table states them rather than a yes or no, and a capability Cyara's product pages do not document, like prompt and scenario versioning or image agent testing, is marked accordingly rather than assumed. Cyara does not publish pricing, and its AWS Marketplace listing offers custom quotes through private offers, so buying is marked sales-led.
Production monitoring is one row of this comparison; our guide to AI monitoring covers the signals to track, alert thresholds and blind spots.
If you are weighing more vendors, our guide to contact center testing tools covers nine, and our Empirix and Hammer alternative and Hamming AI alternative pages set TestMu AI beside each tool one on one.

What Cyara Does Not Document
Image agent testing
Nothing on cyara.com covers image agents. Agent Testing scores them 0 to 100 with brand checks.
Scenarios from your docs
Cyara's generator works from domain descriptions. Agent Testing builds 60 to 100+ chat and voice scenarios from your PRDs.
Prompt and scenario versioning
Cyara's product pages show no prompt or scenario version history. Agent Testing flags scenarios hit by prompt changes.
Business-outcome metrics
Cyara's product pages describe no FCR, containment or CSAT scoring. Agent Testing scores all three on every phone call.
Go-live verdict
Cyara ships dashboards. Agent Testing rolls chat, voice and phone runs into a Green, Yellow, Red verdict.
Published pricing
Cyara quotes every deal through sales or an AWS private offer. Agent Testing starts free with plans from $399/mo.
How to Switch From Cyara to Agent Testing
- Register the phone numbers your IVR or phone agent answers on, with country code selection.
- Rebuild your Cyara test cases as scenarios, since they are not imported: generate up to 20 inbound scenarios at a time with personas, languages and special instructions, or write them by hand.
- Set the caller for each scenario: a voice from a library of 200+, one of 15 background-noise presets, the response timing and the maximum call length.
- Group the scenarios into a test suite and run it, or schedule it with cron and an IANA time zone.
- Read the Go-Live Assessment (Green at 80 or more, Yellow 65 to 79, Red below 65) and the 30+ call metrics, then upload past production recordings (MP3 or WAV) to score real calls without placing new ones.
Chat and voice bots skip the phone setup: generate 60 to 100+ scenarios from your documents or connected Jira and Confluence, then run them as a test suite.
