    Cloudtalk is by far the best value-for-price software out there for call center solutions. Packed with features, very accessible, kind and accessible customer support, and cheap, especially when compared with their competitors for the same range of features. Easy entry-level software, especially if you're a startup that doesn't want to make big initial commitments but needs a solution that scales with the business.

    The free version I would absolutely recommend, we've had some great use out of it for the past few years. Presenting, sharing screen, the conference line and some other features are all free. If we did need more analytics and more features, perhaps making it easier for the potential customer to share screen, we might re-start the search and we'd potentially rate UberConference lower, but for the free version it's been great for us.

    Pros
    CloudTalk.io
    • It's extremely simple to install and integrate
    • Their smart dialer option reduces time spent typing in number and helps make more calls
    • It makes life super easy to keep track of calls being made and how long calls are but also to listen back on calls made

    • I appreciate being able to select a local phone number: it adds credibility and convenience for in-market clients/prospects.
    • I like being able to customize the hold music. One of our employees wrote and produced custom hold music for Anvil, which generates discussion and engagement as an ice-breaker.
    • The screen sharing is easy-to-use and is far more reliable than in the past. Prospects and clients do not have to download any app to make it work properly.

    Cons
    CloudTalk.io
    • A lot of features are still missing, some of which are pretty basic like being able to select multiple filters instead of one.
    • Desktop app has had some instability issue.
    • IVR needs to be self-recorded which can lead to a lower quality.

    • Can be very laggy - I have been part of screen share conferences where the connection keeps dropping.
    • Call quality is not always the best.
    • Limited functionality - this cannot be your all-in-one go-to conferencing solution because there are no video call capabilities.

    UberConference is more expensive than some of its competitors and we have not found a real advantage to using UberConference over certain less-expensive applications. UberConference charges per month per organizer and those costs add up quickly, so we will be moving forward with a more budget-friendly option in the coming months.

    Usability
    CloudTalk.io
    CloudTalk is super easy to use and has a great quality. It helps to communicate with the clients easily and we can feel that the sound quality is high, while speaking to the client and while listening to the recordings. This is for our department essential in our day to day work.

    The interface is intuitive and stupidly simple, no complicated sub-menus or configuration settings. Easy to create a meeting space and then have others join with a link or dial-in PIN on the free tier. On the paid tier it's even easier with PIN-less joining and automatic reminder calls to get participants to join.

    They are skilled, experienced, and anytime I need something and contact the support time, I get the right person who understands my needs and reacts to them accordingly. So far I was only pleasantly surprised by the level of support these guys provide and coming from a customer service oriented background myself, I can only say keep it up guys, you are doing a fantastic job!

    I haven't needed support for the most part, which is a positive for Highfive. It's intuitive and most features are straightforward to use. In the one instance that I did contact them, it took them longer then expected to respond, but they were able to answer my question once they did.

    It was a gamble if I'm being honest, plus this is a very nuanced and intricate topic. We didn't necessarily substitute one for the other, it was a much needed state of affairs where we needed the call monitoring and agent tracking pros of CloudTalk more so than ever before.

    Uberconference is by far more reliable and has a better quality of service than the other providers in this space. I have never had a dropped call with Uberconference (unlike Skype and Hangouts). I do think they need to do more marketing because fewer people know about them than others and sometimes people decline to use the service so we have to use one of the other platforms to connect.

    Return on Investment
    CloudTalk.io
    • For a similar price it is not necessary to manage so many cell phone accounts
    • Unlike basic telephony. It is possible to have more control of the interactions with our clients.
    • For administrators it allows better control of commercial actions or the corresponding area for communication issues

    • Our teams use this every day. It makes it easy to meet with clients and share a screen and display analytics.
    • Some of my clients thought that they need to register first to be able to contact me. It's bad that they are not notified in any way that it's enough just to enter its names and that's it.
