Talkdesk is a cloud-based contact center platform with voice, digital channel, and workforce engagement management capabilities. Talkdesk’s key features are its customizable user interface, built-in AI automation, and its integration with numerous CRM and helpdesk applications.
We selected Talkdesk only because we were getting mixed country data on Zendesk and thus felt the need to move to our own system. Zendesk provides data such as first response time, tracing a call and the transfers and changes in that process is easier, drawing data is far …
Zoom Phone has all CX requirements met for our team, but we worried about prospecting/outbound options for Sales and ability to grow with our team in the future. We opted to use Zoom Phone internally for our non-customer-facing team instead. The downsides of Ring Central …
Talkdesk was by far the best fit for our company and the most user friendly. They really invest in their company and it showed from the start. Talkdesk was also more fairly priced.
the user experience is better, as the layout and interface is more user friendly and intuitive. With a low support from the engineering we can make a big progress. We also have more autonomy to test new things by following the articles from the help center. Also, it is easier …
At the time we felt that Talkdesk offered some more user-friendly solutions. Looking at CCaaS solutions was a new experience for us, so we really didn't know what we didn't know. If I had to repeat the selection process today, I'd have better questions and honestly am not …
Talkdesk accomplished all the functionalities our Company was looking for in a dialer operation setting - predictive dialer, dashboard elaboration, CRM integration, Bigquery integration, call forwarding, IVR, Inbound operation, among others. This is something that the other …
The new features that Talkdesk has made it easier for us as a company to make the change, the software is easy for agents/supervisors and managers to work with. They are always trying to improve the features as well as Support is awesome to work with.
Talkdesk is much more visual than Genesys and has many more functions. When I used genesys to work a couple years back, it was more of a status tool, while talkdesk is so much more, for example performance tracking tool, customer satisfaction managing tool, and it did not have …
We use a combination of Nextiva and Talkdesk. We've found that Nextiva works well for general soft phone usage vs Talkdesk which is best from a support standpoint
Talkdesk beats the competition because it understands integrations between CRM systems much better than the competitors. VoIP software's tend to focus on the quality of the calls, the actual dialer and that part of the software. Talkdesk focuses on the the customizable …
I honestly do not remember what program we had prior to Talkdesk. That in itself says a lot. It was nothing compared to what Talkdesk is capable of. I do remember it being limited as to the different options that were available. I truly believe the move to using Talkdesk …
The transfer features available to us in Aircall were nearly impossible to use. Agents had to be in a wide-open status that allowed both inbound calls and transfers to be routed, requiring a complex ballet of "turn on your availability and get the transfer" within a split …
Honestly, it had to do with cost. Talkdesk offers a very great product at a very competitive price. While the other products had several things, Talkdesk gives you the ability to use what the business needs at the time instead of giving everything at once at a higher price. …
Our contract with Five9 was finishing and we found a modern alternative which is much easier to use, which has a nice and easy interface, and which automatically connects with Salesforce. These differences were ones of the most important in the decision of changing the product …
Despite the cost, the ease with which you are able to navigate the system is actually tedious. We have to have specialists in the business to aid in getting some of the reports and making changes to the system. Calls are delayed between us and customers as there is no tower on our continent for the system.
From experience, customer service is terrible, we've had 5 account executives over 18 months, extremely difficult to get timely answers to pressing issues.
Integration with other tools, such as ServiceNow, is not truly integration (in my opinion). There was a marked difference between what the salesperson communicated during the evaluation period and what we actually got once we purchased and implemented the product.
We continue to have stability issues which force our agents to restart the Talkdesk client. I frequently receive vague error messages ('something went wrong') that can be frustrating as there's no actual detail to what happened. To be fair, it has improved since we implemented the tool, but if you were to ask our agents what frustrated them, Talkdesk would be at the top of their list.
Being a multi-channel platform was one of the things that drew us to Talkdesk; however, the chat channel lags way behind voice in customization and reporting.
Lack of training resources. The 'Talkdesk Academy' is often very out-of-date. Would be nice to have actual webinars or online training (even paid training) for various functions of the tool like reporting, WFM, IVR, etc.
Renewing the use of talkdesk is a cost-effective solution for our company. By continuing to use it, we can leverage potential cost savings and efficiencies. For instance, talkdesk may have features that automate certain processes or enable better resource allocation, resulting in reduced operational costs. Secondly, renewing the contract contributes to enhanced customer service. Talkdesk likely offers specific functionalities that improve customer satisfaction and support. This could include features such as intelligent routing or real-time analytics that help agents provide personalized assistance and resolve issues more effectively. Thirdly, renewing the contract ensures seamless integration and compatibility with other systems or technologies used in our company. Having a unified system across different departments or functions enhances efficiency and reduces potential disruptions caused by incompatible systems. Moreover, there may be benefits gained from data sharing or streamlined workflows enabled by an integrated platform.
Talkdesk so far has lived up to its mission grants us a platform to use and engage with our population. They are able to reach us consistently and as they need with very few interruptions in services which for a tech company is not an easy thing to achieve. The platform is very simple to use and understand
I have never had a problem making a phone call or an issue getting a line out. More times than not it is the customer that will have a bad connection or have a lot of noise on their end. I have had experience w/ dropped calls, but never not being able to access a line
If Talkdesk had a dedicated phone support line I would have given this rating an overall 10. Their knowledge base is absolutely HUGE and at times very helpful. It's easy to search through and their customer support chat system works perfectly fine, but there are just some times that you need to speak to a human on the phone to ensure you are always on the same page.
Training was simple as the app is easy to use. The phone has gone through upgrades since but it's very adaptive and doesn't require a complete session. There are articles available for self help in case something is forgotten. There are a lot of functions to talkdesk and we have not used all of them
Really easy to get set up out of the box. Anything I needed to understand further, I was able to just hop into the Academy and self-teach. I could then bring my team-members to those same sections so they could learn as well without me having to put together complicated SOP's / etc
We were unable to easily access call metrics using WM. Since the switch to Talkdesk, we have not had to struggle with our reporting at all. All the information we need is readily available and can be exported. We are also able to modify the metrics that we need and have them compiled in different ways. The information on Talkdesk is modifiable and makes it easy for us to get the numbers that we need at the end of the day.
We have over 200 employees in 11 states across the United States. Everyone uses Talkdesk. I believe that says a lot about the product and its flexibility. We need to be able to rely on system in order to assist our customers. Reliability and sustainability is important to our success
