Desk.com (discontinued) vs. Verint Workforce Management Professional (discontinued)

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.

Verint Monet has been a great tool for someone, like myself, who has had little to no WFM experience the opportunity to learn and grow along with learning and utilizing the tool. One of the biggest contributors to this success, I feel, is the Verint Monet support team. Our contact center has been able to build a rapport with them and they have a clear understanding of our needs.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Scheduling daily activities
• Agent reports
• Real-time adherence monitoring

• 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

Incentivized

• Should better show chart for better analysis.
• Filter is resetting every time I open the tool.
• Some reports can be included or combined in one place.

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

Because it's almost a year and they still haven't fixed the issues we're having in terms of feeding data from Talkdesk OMNIchannel, as promised.

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.

Because the data feed for Chat and Email won't work and I can't forecast w/o the feed or I had to manually import data which consumes a lot of time

We've never had a problem with Desk.com's availability.

Fast, responsive, gorgeous, and fun. It's always run like a thoroughbred for me.

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.

Incentivized

It's hard to report using their new platform. They ask lots of requirements that I think they can replicate. Or better yet, have a call with their customers to get the ticket resolved quicker

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.

I have had the opportunity to see many of the other Verint Monet products at Engage but our Contact Center does not use them or have a need to at this time.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Positive in a way [because] we can manage our daily staffing.
• [It helps] planning [the] schedule ahead of time.
• [It would be] best if we [could] customize the interface based on [the] company's aesthetic.
