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.

RingCentral Contact Center has been one of the best contact center software that I've used. The calling feature is probably one of the easiest to use. The recordings are very easy to access. Also, it is very easy to host meetings but I hardly ever used that feature because it is not something that is widely used by our prospects. However, it was great when we wanted to connect with fellow colleagues.

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

RingCentral
  • They have an app so you do not miss any calls or messages from your customers or leads.
  • RingCentral has everything you need especially if you're working remotely. Therefore, you do not need to use other software.
  • They automatically transcribe the calls as well so if I miss something this normally helps.

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.

  • I would like to be able to text from our main office line rather than only my office direct line, so I can keep my direct line private
  • I wish it was easier for all users to be able to toggle between calls ringing at their desk phone and cell phone
  • It would be nice if the process to add other team member's numbers to our desk phone screen was easier

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.

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!

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.

The user interface of the Ring Central Contact Center is much better than others. Also, the price and cost of implementing, using, and maintaining the product are comparatively lower than others. So, a maximum set of features according to the cost and price. Other than that, the training required for the team and the support agents is also not much required.

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

RingCentral
  • The business is able to take on clients that need after hours assistance because we have a way to communicate
  • We are able to offer multiple forms of communication, which may attract more clients to our office
  • We don't have to purchase separate call recording technology as each user has a built in call recording system that all users can monitor for each other
