Overall Satisfaction with Talkdesk

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
  • Increased call volume/talk time
  • Increase in pick-up rate
  • Agent retention
It is a useful platform for our company and important decisions are made using the reports generated from TalkDesk. I personally appreciate the flexibility it gives us to be able to see agent productivity, report on it, and make accurate decisions.
I do not have any visibility on this. It was in use prior to my start in the company.
Unfortunately, aside from what I’ve spoken about already, there have not been any additional instances.
As stated prior, I had no visibility on the selection of using TalkDesk. It was already a system in place when beginning this role.

Do you think Talkdesk delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Did Talkdesk live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Talkdesk go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Talkdesk again?

Yes

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.
