    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.

    Pros
    NectarDesk Inc.
    • 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.

    Cons
    NectarDesk Inc.
    • 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.

    • Call back feature having some kind of info as to who I'm calling back.
    • Turn off the working feature after every call. I forgot to turn it back on, and then I'll be in the working state for 30 minutes later.
    • The messaging system is terrible and honestly non functional.

    The product is great but the price per user is really high in my opinion. I wish that there was a lower tier plan that had fewer features, many of which we dont use at all. Or a lower plan with per user add ons that would be cheaper overall.

    Very easy to set up, and users get the hang of it pretty fast, as most of our customers are provided with a train-the-trainer session and are up and running in no time. Also, the simplicity helps users with years and novice experience start taking customer interactions in no time.

    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.

    While all of those apps main service is to communicate with clients/customers and some of them allows you to have a phone number for multiple people. which is useful when working as a department, RingCentral gives you the ability to personalize your contact number which is better when you have dedicated clients and makes it easier to connect with the people you need while keeping records of conversation transcriptions at a user and management level visibility. It also integrates AI for different use and ability to use it in different devices

    The phone side has been VERY stable as you can see in their metrics. We get notifications all of the time for SMS issues, but we dont use that feature heavily so it's not a big deal for us.

    Return on Investment
    NectarDesk Inc.
    • 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.

    • It helps to reduce expenses in the company since you unify all your means of communications in a single system.
    • I can measure our support effectiveness with various indicators, easily compiling them to give me insight into how to improve our processes
    • I can effectively supervise service agents in real time and visualize their daily activities on a board, which allows me to improve every day.
