Dialpad
It is well-suited for basic calling functionality, but has been a poor experience for us when used for texting, as it lacks some of the features of other platforms, such as Haymarket. It is also challenging to capture good analytics, as this is neither easy nor clear for users to find.

Well suited for sites where the product is hardware because with those if there are any questions then the site could help eliminate having to contact the company directly and waiting for answers days later. This would be suited for products as the answer could be given and the more complex questions would be directed to the company.

  • Google Cloud Contact Center AI is based on the same foundation infrastructure and services as Google Assistant, therefore, it is robust and flexible. The APIs are very well built and documented as well. Any newbie can start using the service with a very little learning curve.
  • Seamless integrations are also a great add-on. Google makes sure that Contact Center AI service integrates well with leading customer service platforms which helps any user to use only the required functionalities from Contact Center AI and meanwhile use any other primary platform.
  • Robust documentation which is always alive and is updated within no time is of great help! Google makes sure its end customers know what to do where and when in clear plain text and any issues/ bugs are also documented.

Cons
Dialpad
  • The only example I can list for improvement is that occasionally the message has some mistranslation(s). But I can usually figure out the missing words. The 'southern USA' dialect may be partly to blame....
  • The functionality is really great. It is the best app I have used for messages in all of my customer service jobs.

  • It's still in the beginning phase of sentimental Analysis and more data sets can really help during tough conversations.
  • Automation can be made a little simpler and basic for anyone to be able to work on it.
  • Each instance of the software can have its own AI learning for a wider range of real time issues.

Dialpad Talk is easy to use and no one has had a problem using it. Even when we have had questions/problems we have been able to fix it ourselves without having to go to Dialpad to ask for help, which saves everyone time. We don't have any reason to cancel our use of this product and we are very happy with how it performs for our team.

We are happy with the implementation and functionality of the software and associated systems. In general, unless something better can replace this system we intend on continuing. We think the ease of systems implementation and integration adds value and substantiates the use and excellent functionality of the product and associated services.

Usability
Dialpad
Dialpad Connect is good and recommended for any organization. It is a good value. It can accomplish everything that your organization is looking for, and no one will say it is outside the budget for any 50+ person organization. The AI feature is very useful. The dashboard could be a bit easier to manage, and the integration with Salesforce could be a bit smoother.

Generally intuitive and easy to learn. I would like more guides but the learning curve is rather quick and makes the software rather an easy study for the average user. Generally, the support and functionality of the software make for a generally good outcome and easy implementation of the software and user experience.

Reliability and Availability
Dialpad
There have not been any outages that I am aware of and we have had consistently good coverage since the start. There can be a slight lag from the office to the mobile app, but it is not terribly noticeable and it has not resulted in any calls being prematurely hung up

Performance
Dialpad
The emails of voice transcription come very quickly after a call has been completed and except for a few fairly difficult names are pretty accurate. The ability to quickly listen to the voicemail from email without having to open the app is also a bonus. I have not noticed or heard of any slowdowns

The original date for roll-out, was unable to happen because there was an issue finding our existing phone lines to port them... The only reason I gave a 9 is [that] the original person we have been working with, Rolled out phones. Pro without telling anyone and then went on vacation, I only say this to explain that there is a gentleman that took over to help us named Brett and he was FANTASTIC! He allowed a ton of calls and answered all of them, walked us [through] settings, profile set up, and even emailed screen shares so we could help other members of our team! Thanks so much, Brett you ROCK~

Panterra is dependable and has good support. Dialpad Connect has more features and an easier interface. AT&T has a lot of features, but Dialpad Connect's interface is easier. AT&T does not do call transcription that I know of. Comcast BVE and 8x8 services are lower quality and service is not great.

Only IBM Watson Assistant has been the one we have used in the company, in fact, it was the first to use it because currently in the market there are not many options to use, and if there are they are not receiving enough publicity, so we have limited ourselves to google cloud contact center AI.

Scalability

So far, Dialpad has been a great improvement for our organization. It allows everyone to be on the same service and the integration with the mobile app means everyone is still using the "office" numbers even when on the go which makes it easier not having to balance multiple phone numbers from people
