We had many issues with this and spent months after the initial launch in meetings and escalating things that should have been part of the initial agreement. We were meeting with the team almost 3 times in the week because of the issues that we were seeing and the restrictions we faced.

Talkdesk pairs you with a customer success manager, and it is incredibly helpful to get onboarded and ready to launch. I wish there was a little bit more support with UAT testing when it comes to the Salesforce integration, but everything else about onboarding was very straightforward. Talkdesk's knowledge base is also quite robust.

I would have liked to spend more time with out implementation consultant to learn more about call routing. When i had to make new call flows, i had to learn in on my own via the documentation and the support staff (who was very helpful). Otherwise, the staff at Talkdesk is very helpful, available and insightful. A pleasure to work with!

Implementation went well, but it's after the implementation, the support and service is horrible from experience. We use it to integrate with Service Cloud. Our Customer Care team agents use it. It automates many processes but it lacks good customer service. In my opinion, I recommend the company completely redo its customer care as it is absolutely terrible. We also hope they enable the AI features by default rather than make us upgrade and pay extraordinary costs.

The first couple phases of our implementation went well, with Talkdesk being rolled out to the team, replacing our on-prem call management system. Our goal for that first half was to duplicate the structure of the previous system, and we successfully did that with little drama.

The last phase, however, failed completely. That was to be closer integration with ServiceNow, particularly generating screen-pops for our agents. As previously noted, our implementation person didn't even seem to know what a screen pop was, and had very little familiarity with ServiceNow (we consistently had to train them on various SNOW functions). Likewise at the time we wanted to integrate the SNOW knowledgebase into the Talkdesk virtual agent; we eventually gave up as we could never successfully integrate SNOW into Talkdesk.

We had some issues while implementing the product which resulted in several delays in Talkdesk side. This could be avoided with more information in the purchasing part from the Talkdesk's team. Talkdesk was really good in handling this but this caused multiple delays on our side and the service is still not yet integrated in the entire company.

Our implementation team was awesome, they worked with us throughout each step to make sure we knew what was going on as well as show us what they were doing and why so that when we completed the implementation, we were able to manage our system without needing to always go to support.

As far as I am aware, it is easy to employ and deploy people from the tool. We just inform the internal department responsible for it and they usually confirm employ/deploy on the same day, so I would guess it is an easy process to be done, no issues.

Dealing with various VoIP software in the past, I thought this was going to be a year long project. That was not the case! Once I installed it our SF sandbox, it was so easy to get our configurations connected and getting the callbar to function in accordance with our Salesforce. Transitioning to production caused a bit of an authentication issue which we were bale to resolve with their customer support team within a week. They definitely prioritize us the customer and want to deliver the best service and understanding to us as possible.

Once given a chance to explore the program, and understand how it works it was fantastic. Of course, change is not always easily accepted. Although, once they opened the program and were able to review the settings, everyone was encouraged by the change. Our company requested changes to be implemented to better suit our needs. Once that was done, it was better than everyone had hoped. Continue to be happy w/ the product and useability.

Our Implementation Manager was excellent, and was very familiar with our CRM. This allowed us to go very deep and produce/troubleshoot some complex custom behaviors. They truly went the extra miles when it came to getting us off to the races & helped to navigate number porting from our old carrier. Down the road, as we wanted to leverage more complicated features between our CRM and Talkdesk, it became more difficult to figure out where issues occurred between platforms. That is not a point against Talkdesk, as their support team was able to swing in and patch up some of the difficulties.

Talkdesk's online implementation guidelines are fairly straightforward. However, the business should expect to invest significant upfront time in reading through instructions, watching training videos, etc. In that sense, Talkdesk - like any comprehensive solution i.e. Salesforce, PEGA, Intercom, Casewise, Zendesk, etc. - takes time to learn in terms of both implementation and embedding into business as usual.

We were very satisfied with the implementation of Talkdesk. The team was able to gather all the data and information about the system we had in place at the moment and delivered us a Talkdesk plan that suited our needs. We had a few calls after implementation where our questions were answered and gave us the confidence to continue using the system.

It is very easy to use and to set up. I literally started working 20 minutes after I installed it for the first time. You just need to have your account, download the Callbar and you are all set! There's no setup needed, as far as your account is already set up and assigned to a ring group
