Five9 vs. Squaretalk

Five9 is suited for both large-scale and small-scale companies. If your company deals with marketing more than the technical aspect, Five9 gives a mode of communication and getting in touch with our customer or client in the most reliable way rather than setting physical meetings. In the covid period, Five9 has made it easier to work on calls.

It has helped us a lot with the communication flow of the company, employees have better communication with each other, via chat or if they are out of the office. They can also answer the chat or calls without problems with the mobile application. Very useful in all aspects, that's why we highly recommend it.

Incentivized

• Easy dialing and call logging. The process of starting or answering a call, then logging a call disposition with its notes, is simple and easy.
• Voicemail drops. You can pre-record voicemails to leave for customers without needing to speak the voicemail content each time. This is a huge timesaver for our reps.
• You can customize the call dispositions / call labels to match what's used in your CRM.

Incentivized

• Excellent reception of calls and video calls, looks very clear, which makes it a better experience and information can be passed without any problem.
• Screen sharing is excellent for video conferencing, when we need to explain a task or show a file from our computer, everyone understands and is satisfied.
• I like that even if I am not in my work area, from my mobile devices such as my phone or tablet, I can access the application.

Incentivized

• Java based desktop application is a pain to keep updated.
• The user interface for the agent desktop application is clunky and outdated. It could use a facelift.
• The help center for documentation isn't well organized and the documentation needs substantial editing.

Five9's Customer Support team is also based in Manila Philippines, thus turnaround email response times for our reported issues are great for our requirements. Their CS agents also facilitate mobile calls to followup on outstanding issues and operate on a 24/7 schedule. We've also had experience working with the senior tech agents to investigate recurring issues to completion.

Initially selected Five9 but have since switched to RingCentral which has given us what we needed. Better CRM integration, simpler and in my opinion more robust reporting capabilities and the same omnichannel solution at a fraction of the cost

Incentivized

• Cost savings: Five9 replaced a premise-based outbound dialer and a different virtual call center solution for inbound.
• Cost savings: Five9's voice over IP is less expensive than the land lines we were using.
• Cost savings: Five9 requires significantly less management than our previous solutions.

Incentivized

• A very easy-to-use program that does not require external technical support for installation or learning. Employees are more focused on their activities and the easy way to send files, which is a considerable saving of time and man-hours.
