    I travel a lot and this makes Contivio easy to use, all I need is a good WIFI connection and I am good to interact with the clients anytime/anywhere. The flexibility of not running out the options to get the business running is amazing. The only thing that bothers me is that you may not realize that you're not logged in as you cannot see when the phone logs you out of the application, this also means you might loose out on a running call or the call may not get recorded.

    Once I had to search the logs to find cases and data on a particular keyword, but I was not able to do so as there was no search tool available, nor was there a sort or filter tool. I was totally frustrated as I had to skim through the data to complete my task manually.

    Pros
    Contivio.com
    • Integration into our system
    • Customer support is fairly fast but always solves any issues we have
    • Connects our customers with us in a streamlined way

    • Desk.com automatically tracks analytics on all cases coming in and going out.
    • Desk.com helps prevent multiple people from working on the same case. However, it does allow us to assign the case to someone else if we feel that person is more qualified to address the case.
    • Desk.com has very few bugs or server issues that we've seen. This helps prevent any delays in communicating with our customers.

    Cons
    Contivio.com
    • No mobile app for cell phone use. Seems very weird that you have to be tied to a computer to manage your settings.
    • No web portal for easily adjusting call forwarding or status
    • Requires signing in and out every day because it will log out randomly.

    Discontinued Products
    • Internal knowledge tools are clunky and annoying to access, outside the regular workflow of everyday staff
    • Arbitrary and confusing limitations in business rules and custom fields
    • Arbitrary and confusing limitations in case handling - for example, if you begin a case as a phone call you CANNOT email the customer from the case. As though no one working at Desk has ever sent a follow-up email...?
    • Not very good for B2B, mid-to-large businesses. Difficult to set business rules based on company information (for example, service level/tier) and nearly impossible to track key stakeholders and get clear insight into the relationship at a high level
    • Reporting tools are clunky, slow, and just all-around pretty useless

    I am happy with the application. Contivio is very easy to use, and I hardly ever run into problems so easy to give a decent rating!

    We will be very likely to renew our contract with Desk.com. It is easy to use, and provides us with everything we need to keep our customers and employees happy. They have also been very helpful in catering the application to our specific and unique needs, including working across brands and adding specific content for our products

    Usability
    Contivio.com
    Setting it up can be daunting, but once it's set up, it works great. The admin interface can be a bit confusing as well. It could be better.

    Desk.com and Salesforce Service Cloud's usability is seamless to get up and running, administer, and scale across the organization. It allows us to get up and running in days rather than weeks and has transformed our customer support teams globally into efficient, world-class teams. The best practices that the Salesforce and Desk.com teams provide are also very valuable, as we have the right case studies and tips to implement right away in our organization.

    Their support leaves much to be desired. They do not respond quickly and do not follow up with feature requests. There is also a lack of on-demand or live training available for the teams to use as they learn a new tool. Because there is so much customization, a lot of questions do come up regularly.

    As I stated earlier, implementation of Desk.com went more smoothly than most. The resources in the "Support Center" are fantastic, and I never ran into anything that left me stumped, angry, or disappointed.

    Overall, it performs a lot better than all three combined, with a lot fewer glitches and a lot more user-friendly and user experience efficiency. Any new link that needs to be done, takes a lot less time to execute on desk compared to the three others. Simply advanced when it comes to execution this platform is.

    Return on Investment
    Contivio.com
    • It aids the operations and sales team to keep track of client call data and this is particularly helpful for tracking sales leads.
    • Losing out on an important conversation because either you got logged out in between or the call did not get recorded are two scenarios that are common cons with Contivio.
    • The features that show up on the screen when logged in to the application can sometimes be overwhelming because you don't need to use all the features in one go and some can be hidden for later use when searched for.

    • Better customer service and employee efficiency when dealing with cases
    • It's so universal, meaning that everyone can use it and it's easy to understand.
    • The only negative impact is that our IT department who is assigned tickets has responded to customers instead of to the local reps and we have to ensure they know to change the email if it's assigned to them.
