To centrally manage calls from/to our warehouses around the globe that will always refer to urgent needs to resolve van rental Operations and their constraints, assuring the operation does not stop and any issues are resolved immediately
  • Log Disposition codes
  • Amazing reports for data analytics
  • AWT, ACD, missed and abandoned calls, etc
  • IVRs
  • guided tutorials to self design our own IVRs
  • available chat, even with a bot, to ask for doubts, that could be triaged to a human
  • better troubleshooting on bugs like not being able to log dispositions and wrap time up, without requiring CS staff from Talkdesk providing assistance via emails and scheduled calls
Amazing support from all staff, always friendly and helpful, dedicated and efficient. The tool itself, and the service, are great! Seriously, the data you allow us to store is absolute gold, a key factor which is precious for decision-making when the time comes to (re)evaluate staff levels vs workload

Receive calls from dispatchers and carriers. Calls are also transferred between departments. Talkdesk helps us understand frontline staffing needs (knowing the amount of calls IB & OB and well as processing times to handle those calls). Web-based and phone app real time reporting allows managers on the go to always know how we are doing.
  • Reporting
  • Incident Communication & Resolution (Outages)
  • License Administration
  • Creating Phone Calling Trees Within Talkdesk
  • Legacy TD Packages Annual Increase %'s Are High (9%)
Routing: If your business has different departments that needs separate routing, Talkdesk allows for this.
Reporting: If your agents do offline work, in addition to phone work, Talkdesk allows you to create offline states so you can track all production time.
Reporting: If your call volume is sporadic, reporting allows you to understand volume trends.

We use Talkdesk in our virtual environment to provide services to members that call in for medical assistance, across many markets (states) that we serve. We also use Talkdesk to provide outreach to the members served as well. Talkdesk has been very beneficial with reporting and helping us to forecast staffing for future openings in other markets.
  • Reporting tracking agents metrics
  • Creating Ring groups to better support each department we service
  • Provides quick and fast support from the helpdesk
  • Easy use
  • Transferring of calls, we sometimes have to use interpreters and are not able to disconnect transfers without disconnecting the whole call, which agents have to sit and wait or do callbacks
  • Updates to the systems should be sent out to Admins in a timely manner to prepare staff
  • Better update for callbar to prevent freezing
For the work we do, Talkdesk allows me to barge in calls for agents to help in those high-stress moments, and I am to whisper to my agent to talk them through calls so that they are not flustered and help create ease. Having that ability cuts down stressful moments.

Talkdesk is being used by our organization as means to interact with our customers. Yes, it is being used by everyone. Talkdesk addresses communicating with customers.
  • Clear
  • Precise
  • Accurate
  • Reliable
  • Can't think of any
Talkdesk is well suited to answering calls from anywhere in the world. Not just through calls but also through chat and emails. We rarely had some disconnected calls, but that can be blamed for the low internet connection. So, that can't be blamed on Talkdesk still. Overall I can recommend Talkdesk to anyone.

Helps in better customer engagement. User-friendly platform, helps in data, easily accessible on phones and other devices. It is the best application from a business development point of view. Very secure application, and records of data are easy to manage. Can transfer calls; conference facility is available. Also, managers can easily keep track of their team.
  • Mobile app
  • Easy to understand
  • Support is quick
  • Everything is good
The app helps in making calls anytime and any day. Data is easy to pull if required. I was about to get fired once due to an escalated call, and Talkdesk was very helpful in my scenario as it was more than a month since I spoke to that customer, and we dial almost 100-150 calls in a day. It was very easy to pull the recording from a month old and listen to the recording. I am glad to use this platform as it has saved me from getting fired.

Works well for our VOIP needs! It's great that it can be used across several departments and keeps info like commonly used contacts quickly accessible. Connects to Salesforce.
  • Connectivity.

  • Ease of use.
  • Slow at times.
  • Too many pop-ups.
  • Easier/clearer reporting.
Not sure if Talkdesk is the best in the market but there's nothing I'm currently looking for that Talkdesk doesn't have. Good for most small to mid-range companies and the integration with Salesforce makes it so much easier to track data.

We use Talkdesk to communicate with our customers. We have customers across LATAM and Mexico and not all carriers provide coverage for all LATAM countries. Talkdesk does, that's why it works for us.
  • Data exporting.
  • Ease of use.
  • Country coverage.
  • Report personalization.
  • Calls drop frequently.
Overall it works fine, it is great if you are starting up but there are many other options out there that are significantly less expensive and with very similar capabilities.

Talkdesk allows us to track and monitor our department's performance live and quickly. It's user friendly, and has many bells-and-whistles that make it extremely valuable, from reporting, to integrations with Salesforce, quality assurance and workforce management. The team at Talkdesk have always been very helpful and supportive, and you can tell their company is always innovating and growing. We are excited about their new offerings and their plans for the future.
  • Reporting
  • User friendly
  • Live monitoring
  • Reliability - usually related to the live dashboard, but sometimes with calls dropping too
  • More knowledge articles to allow managers to make changes and updates on their own
If you're a mid-sized or large customer contact center (sales, success, onboarding/implementation or service), then Talkdesk is a great software to flexibly manage your customers and team.

  • Good call quality

Talkdesk allows our company to call clients, track and record phone calls, and access voicemails using one platform. It also links with Salesforce to record data which is useful for tracking of daily calls. Having the ability to conduct conference calls and transfer calls also provides benefits other services may not offer.
  • Recording of calls
  • Data analytics
  • Syncs with other platforms
  • Has occasional bugs that give errors when attempting to log calls.
  • Sometimes has log in issues or doesn't sync properly.
Talkdesk is one of the best calling services in the market, and although there are occasional bugs that may be encountered on a daily basis, it still beats other competitors in the market by far with its reliability and consistency. Talkdesk does not have a smooth texting feature, however, and this is an area that could be further improved upon.

We use Talkdesk in order to monitor team members' performance. First of all, we use the Observe AI application that's within Talkdesk in order to give coaching sessions to our team members. It helps us with identifying the areas of opportunity to be improved and the action plans that need to be executed. We also use it to monitor average handle time (AHT), pick-up rate reports, and agent status. The business problems that it addresses are mainly associated with showing detailed visibility of the areas of opportunity in each key performance indicator. In other words, we can address those areas in a timely and more effective manner.
  • It shows excellent reports with detailed areas of opportunity to be addressed in a timely manner.
  • It helps monitor team member's performance in a more effective way.
  • It shows an excellent visibility of crucial key performance indicators
  • When team members take calls, sometimes it gets frozen. It shows an error message with a sad face.
  • It takes long to load the data of some specific reports like the pick-up rate reports.
  • It doesn't show the breakdown of calls that are intentionally disconnected by team members.
Talkdesk is well suited to creating reports like the agent status report that shows the breakdown of the activities being performed by a team member. It helps determine whether the team member is trying to avoid his/her responsibilities or not. I don't think Talkdesk is appropriate while show all the agent statuses online. For example, if want to see whether a member is offline or not, I need to go to a different page.

I´m the admin of the service center. I work with the forecast, schedule alignment, and everything related to the tool. The tool helps the business manage the schedules better and generate a report for better business decisions. Also, help us to monitor service levels in all businesses and have a better understanding of what is really happening.
  • Monitor Service Levels
  • Report building
  • Call flow design
  • Skills grouping
  • forecast accuracy
  • Better coding options
To monitor service level and custom build report the tool is an A+. However, creating a user tends to be tedious because there are no options to group skills, so they have to be added one by one and in some cases, a person can last a day setting up a user just because there is no way to add a group of skills.

We use this tool in our daily work to communicate with users of the platform. The main thing is the outgoing and incoming calls that we make during user support. We process more than 300 incoming calls a day. Outgoing more than 700. This is one of our main tools when working with clients.
  • Handling Inbound calls
  • Outbound calls
  • Monitoring
  • Very often there are problems with non-calls to certain numbers, and it is unclear for what reason. I think the company should think about the error message when dialing. Since at the moment, if we have a non-call, we can't even figure out if it's a technical error or if we just can't get through to the user because he doesn't answer.
  • Very incomprehensible monitoring reports, the timezone is incomprehensible and difficult to track and make a report on agents on the line.
  • Integration with CRM platforms does not work perfectly, sometimes integration is brake and it is not possible to attach calls to chats.
The integration and the very idea of making calls and accepting them are well thought out. However, there are many problems that cause inconvenience to both ordinary employees and management. Pros - The ability to use a convenient mini call bar (a small phone in a computer), integration with CRM platforms, the ability to call by clicking on a number in this platform (there is no need to always copy and paste), the ability to call foreign numbers, the ability to attach local telephony. Cons - the technical definition of problems has not been finalized, integration does not work perfectly, and reporting is unclear for use.

Talkdesk is our main inbound & outbound phone tree we use for various departments within our organization.

We've used various phone platforms in the past and the largest problem we were having is setting up proper workflows our customers experience when calling in. The Talkdesk application certainly solved this issue we were running into. Their Studio / Flow building was super easy to use and very user-friendly.

My absolute favorite thing with Talkdesk is their Studio Academy. This is what sold us on using your system as it allowed our team to self-service any questions we had without having to call in, set up and appointment to chat with an agent, etc. etc.

We use Talkdesk & Callbar for all our in/outbound call needs across various departments and I'm basically our company's go-to when it comes to setting / modifying items.
  • Studio Academy - We / our team can self learn on how to address our own problems
  • Studio Building - Very easy to draft up a phone tree and have it operational in hours!
  • Onboarding - It's so easy to swap seats for Callbar and then run new members through the Academy to understand how to use the system
  • Studio Builder - Can get messy really fast when building.. I'd love a more free-flow setup. Think something like LucidChart where it's all drag and drop. When I'd finish building our trees, it was VERY hard to show our executives because of how chaotic all the lines looked
  • I'd love to see some additional integration flexibility, aside from Salesforce. We use Help Scout and the inability of "splitting" created interactions from TD to HS creates a challenge with having a CS team and Sales Team. We have to have all inbound calls go through CS and all outbound go through Sales. Then it's just workflow / transfer city
  • Creating an API that would refresh the Callbar / browser window would be nice to avoid things timing out if we don't have calls going in/out in 1-2 hours. What will happen is that our status will read "Available" but when a call comes in, it'll push to VM until we go and logout / in to refresh the system
Talkdesk is perfect for entry-level teams to get up and running but also could be great for more seasoned teams who want a more robust CX. Being able to have callbacks is a nice feature to have right out of the box as other companies will use that as an up charge.

With how complicated the Studio Builder can get, it's hard to ask a co-worker to go in and modify something as it's not super easy to understand / modify. You delete one section of the flow and all the lines change, making it hard to re-connect the dots and finish what I came in to accomplish

Having a reliable VOIP service that offers a remote team amazing tools and analytics to assist our customers. In addition, the WFM and scheduled reports help us provide the best service experience by getting folks on the phones when we need it. The Studio allows us to develop and build our own IVR.
  • Analytics.
  • IVR Development.
  • Time Updates on Live.
  • Understand how to create your own dashboards about stuff you care about.
Small business might be a little out of scope for Talkdesk, but if you are looking to scale to a Large Org - It absolutely needed to assist you with scaling the org - Helps you bring data to the table.

Talkdesk as a VOIP

Vetted Review

Talkdesk is used as the main telephony to support customers for the company. This addresses the communication and support to all our customers. Providing the best and real-time customer support is our top priority. Most of the time, customers would rather call than send emails to address their needs. This is what Talkdesk is providing my business, the ability to communicate to customers and address their needs as fast as possible.
  • As a System Admin, Talkdesk has many services that help in giving the best customer service.
  • I am able to admin agents for my company in an efficient manner and customize permissions given to agents.
  • There are integrations that are really worth having.
  • Better status page. The status page is not updated in real-time and it's really a disappointment when agents are flagging that Talkdesk is having an outage and when you check their status page, it's not updated. We create a ticket to flag this on Talkdesk and they are saying that they are aware of the issues.
Well-suited scenario is when you want to give the best customer experience to your customers. Talkdesk is easy to use and manage as a system administrator. My agents are able to do their work without having so much hassle.

Less appropriate scenario is trying to schedule your agents. some of them lose access to WFM because the settings on the app is getting unchecked for some reason. There are still glitches with the apps for Talkdesk

I like Talkdesk because it is easy to use, and it has good integration with Salesforce. It allows you to re-listen to calls. We have been using it for over three years now.
  • You can re-listen to calls.
  • You can track the number of calls.
  • I would like a mobile app.
  • It would be nice if it could auto detect the country code.
In my work, it is always adequate so I can manage many calls a day. It works very well, we make long calls which can reach up to 60 minutes.

It is being used to dial out to all of our leads. It is used across the whole org. It allows us to use to be as efficient as possible, switch between numbers we're dialing out from and connect to leads in a very fast fashion. It rarely ever has issues, but sometimes customers do complain about the call quality and that we're cutting in and out.
  • Quick to connect.
  • Switch between numbers.
  • Auto-dialer.
  • Customers complain that we're cutting in and out.
  • Call quality.
Well suited for dialing out to hundreds of leads per day. You can easily call 400+ leads if you put your head down and just do it. I can't think of a scenario where it is less appropriate but I'm sure if you were only using it to make a few calls a day and sometimes the quality wasnt good then it would not be a good software

We leverage Talkdesk primarily for our customer support call center. We migrated from a more entry-level product looking for more robust reporting and a more friendly user experience. We have been able to provide a user-friendly platform to our associates that have a cohesive feature set. We didn't want to introduce any added complexity to the agents' workday or workflows. It has the added benefit of being rather user-friendly on the admin side. We have been able to enhance our call routing and introduce SMS into our communication channels with little to no involvement from a developer.
  • User Experience.
  • Historical reporting.
  • Live dashboard configuration.
  • Admin experience.
  • Conversion of legacy features.
  • Support knowledgebase.
  • Parts of Omnichannel setup.
We have a relatively small call center with no integrations currently. I would highly recommend Talkdesk to a mid-tier call center looking for a robust product that isn't going to require a high maintenance cost. We were looking for a platform that had adequate reporting, a strong feature set, and an intuitive user experience. What we found in Talkdesk is a platform "right-sized" for today with ample opportunity to expand as we do.

The main use is to communicate with all parties involved in our daily operations. We use it to solve customer-related issues, problems with orders, questions about payments, condition of the products, etc. Talkdesk is used each and every day to make hundreds of calls, all of them are recorded and we can review the calls to give feedback when necessary. The recording quality is pretty good and it also allows us to use coaching during the call!
  • Practicality
  • Searching calls
  • Coaching during interaction with the customer
  • Reporting
  • Phone compatibility
  • Chrome extension
  • Routing issues
  • Monitoring
  • Service outages
Talkdesk is great, it's pretty straightforward and easy to install and start using it. For example, for specific cases, you can have a dedicated line where only X person would be calling, which is an amazing tool. As I mentioned it's really easy and during the pandemic it was one of the easiest tools to set up on agents' laptops, just install and start using it, you could also use the mobile app which gives you more flexibility! Of course, there are some downsides as well. For example, we had routing issues, also the downtimes are unexpected and can last for a few hours.

Originally implemented for a small remote call center team. It worked so well we made the decision to move our entire organization over. Cost and ease of use make it the perfect solution for our employees. Our previous solution was bulky and built on old POTS technology. TalkDesk is far superior to Momentum and other outdated telecom solutions.
  • Studio call flow enables custom creation and manipulation of telephony operations.
  • Reporting is simple and easy to use, freeing up time for other tasks.
  • Live call monitoring is a snap. One-click and you're in. One more and I can join the call if necessary.
  • Infusionsoft (CRM) integration creates a seamless connection.
  • Latency in some VOIP calls.
  • SIP integration could be improved.
  • Independent operation from CallBar would be amazing.
  • Mobile app could use some improvement.
Small or large call center operations would benefit greatly from this solution. Other new technologies just do not stand up to the TalkDesk platform. Superior support and customer service overall. Implementation was a breeze! Our organization was caught up in a bulky non-solution that made almost every task difficult and created many barriers that were difficult to overcome. Our previous provider's support was horrible and we had outages constantly.

Our team uses TalkDesk to run reports on our agents on a daily basis to ensure that they are meeting set expectations. The reports I use frequently include the ‘Calls’, ‘Agents Report’, ‘Inbound’, ‘Service Level’, and a custom report. It allows us to recognize areas of weakness and strengths and use those reports to train and coach on these areas with our agents. Some business problems we have run into are seldom, but we do have them on the occasion. I have noticed that when calls are answered by an agent and then transferred to another phone number, that agent’s call and talk time do not reflect those transferred calls in the ‘Agents Report’. In addition, there is a bit of a delay when the agent ends the call/moves to a different status, ie: ‘After Call Work’, ‘Away’, and ‘Available’ versus real-time. When trying to ensure agents are staying focused and on task, this does cause a slight worry on the occasion, but nothing that vitally affects their day. Hope this helps!
  • Provides a wide variety of reports
  • Allows us to be aware of productivity
  • Transfer calls
  • Quicker in-real-time data
Best suited for situations requiring reports from a specific date/time. Less appropriate when having to know what is going on in real-time. The time between the agent hanging up the call and switching to “After Call Work” or another status is delayed and gives a false impression on the agent slightly. It is by no means a large delay, but it is one nonetheless.
