RingCX, based on the former Dimelo, is an AI customer interaction tool built to power digital customer engagement.
I would recommend Nectar Desk if you are going to launch it across an entire organization. By launching for only one department, it has been extremely difficult to not have the connectivity we want across the entire company.
RingCX solved a lot of problems we had as an organization. Being able to have easy tracking, easily managing call queues, setting up call rotations, and more is really awesome. The app is also very user friendly and we all appreciate how great the integration with Salesforce. If I had to make any complaint, or note where they could improve is turning off the call queue via a better calendar integration (Eg: if I am in a meeting automatically turning off call queues). We mainly use RingCX for troubleshooting/support calls and it's so easy to log and track (for accountability) in Salesforce.
Customizing Multiple Ring Groups: Allows for different call routing options depending on what phone number is dialed by a caller
Agent Login Tracking & Analytics: I can see minute by minute details of my team's login status and better understand how they're using their time
IVR Set Up: I can set up and edit/change IVR settings with the click of a few buttons, it's super easy!
Call History Tracking: I can easily filter and view all calls for the day to see what was inbound vs outbound, how many calls were handled by each agent, how many calls were missed, how many were outside of business hours, what the dispositions for each call were, and MORE. The Call History analytics are GREAT.
Reporting. The analytics and reporting is very detailed and customizable.
Call Queues. We have the option of having all phones ring at once, in a certain order or the person who has been idle the longest. This helps spread the work amongst the departments.
When a caller becomes assigned to an agent, SMS notifications are only sent to that agent. This is difficult for our call center manager to monitor if the team is handling all SMS replies efficiently and effectively.
Because Nectar Desk is a chrome-based calling software, we are limited in accessing the platform. Due to the ongoing pandemic, this presented a challenge in making sure that all agents' at-home computers were capable of running the software.
Currently most of our needs are being met, although the WhatsApp solution is weak and does not allow for calls and coexistance, the rest of solutions for Webchat, Social Media, and calls are meeting our needs. The other missing element is simultaneous ringing, but we have been ablet to configure priorities which we didn't have before.
The reason I gave this rating was I would like to see global rules created for say holidays. Currently I have to create 37 individual custom rules for say Memorial day. Which is quite cumbersome. Or maybe a template that could we could make a copy. A copy feature would also be handy.
I rated them an 8 because their support team is highly responsive and reliable. Whenever we need to reach out with a problem, they are quick to respond and do an excellent job of keeping the ticket updated. I really appreciate that they make sure to keep us posted throughout the entire troubleshooting process, so we are never left in the dark wondering what is going on. Most importantly, they consistently resolve our issues in a timely manner, which is crucial for minimizing downtime and keeping our daily operations running smoothly.
There are far more features in the RingCX platform than in our exploration of the other platforms. Additionally we utlized another service that had stability issues along with higher costs for overall local phone services that we were able to consolidate when we made the switch to RingCX along with 3rd party services to handle various Omnichannels that were all avaiable in the RingCX platform.
As the marketing agency that implemented this software for a client, we have 100% insight into call performance. Our client previously throughout random numbers, was always guessing on his team's performance, and now we have actual insight into how the intake team is truly performing—we know 100% of the inbound calls they make, how many outbound calls are made in a day, and how much time is spent 'idle'. This has allowed our client to hire the appropriate number of call center staff based on actual data and has allowed us to shift our marketing budget to focus on driving the right callers.
