    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.

    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.

    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.

    • 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.

    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.

    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.

    • 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.
