Alvaria, Inc (Aspect Software + Noble Systems)
It all depends on the workforce team if they've settled the tool correctly for the company. In a previous experience, the tool was entirely settled with the group balance available, all the segments we need were added and up to date, and we could easily navigate the tool. On the new company though, there is a sentiment of incompletion, the UI slightly evolved over the past 2 years but only for the name and some design. Though the tool itself hasn't really changed and clarity is missing sometimes. We must be used to it to understand it well.

Talkdesk does an excellent job with productivity reports. I can monitor my agent's lives during calls and their current status, allowing me to affect them productively at that moment. I can also download a productivity report on Talkdesk to analyze historical data and see patterns and problems.

Cons
Alvaria, Inc (Aspect Software + Noble Systems)
  • There is a lot of options, probably too many and more than 50% are no use to me.
  • Some views can be very confusing, sticking to the time is best to avoid being confused by any overlapping segment.
  • Lot of options but UI tends to be a bit slow to load and still empty sometimes.

Renewing the use of talkdesk is a cost-effective solution for our company. By continuing to use it, we can leverage potential cost savings and efficiencies. For instance, talkdesk may have features that automate certain processes or enable better resource allocation, resulting in reduced operational costs. Secondly, renewing the contract contributes to enhanced customer service. Talkdesk likely offers specific functionalities that improve customer satisfaction and support. This could include features such as intelligent routing or real-time analytics that help agents provide personalized assistance and resolve issues more effectively. Thirdly, renewing the contract ensures seamless integration and compatibility with other systems or technologies used in our company. Having a unified system across different departments or functions enhances efficiency and reduces potential disruptions caused by incompatible systems. Moreover, there may be benefits gained from data sharing or streamlined workflows enabled by an integrated platform.

Talkdesk is helpful because we use it to receive calls in our BPO. Not only do we track live ques and statuses from agents, but we also receive feedback from our assessors through the talk desk as well as coaching, and it also stores customer contact data; I can track all my calls, and It records all the calls so we can come back to review them. You can also listen live and track your daily productivity. You can change your aux statuses very quickly, and there was an update talk desk that allows you to queue another status while you are on a call or after-call work, which is a great feature.

I have never had a problem making a phone call or an issue getting a line out. More times than not it is the customer that will have a bad connection or have a lot of noise on their end. I have had experience w/ dropped calls, but never not being able to access a line

We've had five account execs in 18 months, three of which were apparently downsized. That makes me question the stability to Talkdesk as a company. We continue to struggle getting timely, effective support when we have questions or issues. Usually, we email the support team, get the initial 'somebody will contact you' message, and then it can be days or in some cases over a week before we get a response.

Nothing is perfect!! Needing the ability to repeat the training so everyone was on board was important. Not real sure how many people had to repeat the training as they trained on their own and given 30 minutes at a time.

Really easy to get set up out of the box. Anything I needed to understand further, I was able to just hop into the Academy and self-teach. I could then bring my team-members to those same sections so they could learn as well without me having to put together complicated SOP's / etc

Talkdesk is used to take inbound and outbound calls, which helps improve customer experience. It also provides evaluations through quality management. Talk desk scores are sometimes behind, but they still work well regarding taking and receiving calls. Some agents blame the Talk Desk because they lack knowledge of how to use it.
