Scalable solution for Salesforce integration
Owl Labs is currently using Talkdesk for our Sales and CX teams. We wanted a customer facing phone system that would allow us to customize our IVR, be able to transfer calls to live agents, voicemails, and external phone numbers as well. With our previous system, we had a lot of smaller limitations that were adding up and causing it to be difficult to scale. With Talkdesk, we have many ways to scale our system with simple fixes like pre-setting our holiday messaging and hours months in advance.
- Customization of IVR.
- Great onboarding support.
- Integration with Salesforce.
- Lacking continued success manager support. After onboarding, you are transferred to general support. Sometimes, we need help with more strategic & bigger picture decisions post launch that would be great to talk through with a CSM.
- I wish the features available in the web app were available in the call bar app. It would make it a bit easier for our reps to have one less place to look to manage voicemails.

Awesome product! easy and powerful
We use talkdesk not only for calls but also the chat app so that we can have all contact of each customer under the same system. That heps a lot to our contact center to recap information and training. Also we can monitorize and make statistics of inbound/outbound calls, chats, etc
- voice quality
- ease of use
- flow

Talkdesk is a really strong service with some issues to resolve
Our Company has a large outbound sales operations and Talkdesk is used as our dialer setup to support this operation. Our Company also has an inbound line and required a service that could support both types of calls. Also, the reports and integration with our CRM were two of the essential functionalities our Company requires in a dialer and Talkdesk is able to accomplish both.
- Report setup
- Integration with Bigquery and CRM
- Inbound sales
- Outbound sales - they are improving on this
- Integration with multiple accounts of the same CRM
We are in the 24x7 customer support business and it's critical for us to have the interface up and running. Talkdesk does the job for us as expected. We have been using it for the last 2 years, and so far, the overall experience is great. The interface is smooth and easily integrated with Chrome, which we widely use in our company. We needed a phone system that allowed a distributed team in our org to take customer calls on mobile numbers and not expose their personal phones. Talkdesk helped us in this scenario and it's really useful in this Covid time as well. post the covid we have been using TalkDesk with no issues and all seems to be working great.
- The best features are the ones that our Customer Service and Sales team use. The teams have to do calls on a daily basis and our customers are all over the USA. The ease of use and the app is the best.
- Simple migration from existing apps.
- Quick integration and easy to use.
- Easy to install and setup.
- Dependable
- Easy Reporting
- Sometime we faced issues related to caches. Not sure how that can be improved.
- The thing I like least about Talkdesk is the reporting section. We need many customized reports, and for some reason, we haven't really explored this section. We wish it could be simple to use like an API call.

Talkdesk made a big difference for our team!
Talkdesk is being used as the sole platform for inbound and outbound voice contacts across our Customer Service team. We utilize the Studio feature heavily to construct & maintain our IVR, route conversations to the appropriately skilled members of our team and to manage our requested callbacks. Talkdesk has been integrated with our CRM to create new customer profiles when there is a new contact and to update tickets to reflect certain on-call actions like transfers and hangups. We also leverage data dips into our CRM to retrieve user data and affect routing behaviors.
- Granular, detailed IVR flows.
- Segment team into skill sets and route calls accordingly.
- Maintain and manage a requested call back queue when volume is beyond bandwidth.
- Native data reporting and filtering can be clunky for KPIs that don't align exactly with what Talkdesk has out of the box.
- Integration with Kustomer CRM had to be custom built.
- Cannot initiate agent-to-agent calls.
- Had to custom build a module for A/B testing

Simple to use yet powerful solution
Our organisation uses Talkdesk as customer service and sales departments solution. We use national phone numbers and address the calls directly to the departments or we transfer calls once they enter to our customer support department. We implement it with a few CRM software systems to easily manage and record the process of our customers experience.
- Easy and simple to use.
- Easy to be managed and extracting useful reports.
- Implementation with other software products.
- More user friendly expansions to keep notes for the current customers with easy access and option of summarizing it.

Awesome tool for call centers!
We use Talkdesk mainly to have a call center software for the tech support team, customer service, restaurant support, website support, etc., So it's our main tool for communications. It is very helpful since we have several ring groups and we can transfer between each other. Also, it is a smart-assigning call queue, so It's not like the regular call center software where it assigns a call to the agent that has the most time is available, but it assigns it to an agent depending on several factors, like the auxiliary usage, available time, etc. It also has a voicemail feature, where it stores all voicemails and can be assigned to each agent, which is very convenient for each agent to track all voicemails, including contact information. It is also used for QA evaluations, as you can upload your QA form and evaluate the call for each agent, adding comments to each section of the voice interaction specifying on what part of the call you made the note so that the agent that is being evaluated can see exactly where are the comments. It also keeps track of every interaction with time stamps and dates of course. It's great overall
- Assigning calls to the queue
- Transferring calls
- Dialing out calls
- Detecting and using audio hardware, like headphones or headsets
- QA evaluations
- Managing the whole team
- Good Dashboard for live reporting
- Live view of the queue
- Mobile app
- Call-bar positioning and customization

Ease and effectiveness!
Talkdesk is used in some of our other departments. It's easy to use and provides a wide range of useful real-time data. This software provider helps agents who are not as tech-savvy. Personally, I love how Talkdesk allows me to view my other group/team members. I am better able to manage my calls now and the callback feature is great. At first I was worried it may be a bad upgrade but it wasn't, it actually helps me to be more organized and in control of my system.
- Helps to improve customer satisfaction.
- Ensures that we aren't losing calls.
- Great at real time data.
- Ease and effectiveness of use.
- I found it really difficult at first to see real-time data re my live contacts.
- Do more webinars or email correspondence about Talkdesk.
- So far things are great.

No landline No problem! Talk from your desk!
Currently in my department, we strictly use Talkdesk to communicate with NUPD, Students, Faculty, Parents, and Residents of the area. Calls range from temperature, plumbing, electrical, to university emergencies.
This system does allow us to monitor our calls, keep track of what issues the callers are reporting, and a great metrics reporting tool.
The only downside at times is that Talkdesk can be closed too easily, meaning if you accidently hit the X button in the corner it shuts you down instead of in settings the option (hitting close minimizes your screen and runs in the background) or (yes close the application)
The system has progressed so much since we first started using it, and each update has made it better.
I do wish the Mobile option was a tier one option, feels silly their app is only accessible if you pay for the higher tiers. (even if only for Supervisors and Leads)

Talkdesk helps with overall productivity and agent efficiency
We use Talkdesk on a daily basis to connect with prospective leads regarding their interest in our product. Without Talkdesk, we would have traditional phones and have to manually dial each phone number. With the app, we can click to dial and log our call notes within the platform which will translate to our CRM system.
- efficiency with dialing
- call logging
- data analytics of productivity metrics
- Connectivity issues
- Call drops
- lengthy down times

Talkdesk experience.
Chat/email/voice assignation is not accurate or easy to manually assign in case that is necessary; when are unable to see live chats/emails, reassign them in case of a system issue; agents have a lot of issues trying to find templates and some digital interaction get stuck unable to close them because we are unable to see them on the queue or agents inbox.
- Reports
- Live calls view.
- Live agents status.
- There is no way to see emails on queue.
- We are not able to reassign a chat or email if the agent is having system issues.
- Takes s lot of time to get a response when we submit a ticket.

Talkdesk as a VOIP
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.
