Overall Satisfaction with Talkdesk

The QA team uses Talkdesk to make phone calls and audit the phone calls that the reps make with our customers. We also export data about the phone calls for analysis, headcount planning, and agent performance. As a third main activity, we export the agent activity from talkdesk to calculate levels of efficiency and service.
  • Call Recording
  • Phone Calls Data Export
  • Agent Status Detail Export
  • Filters when exporting data
  • Dashboards seem to be useful but most people never really use them
  • Support page is ok, but takes time to find out what TD can or can't do
  • I don't think that the telephony system has much to do with ROI and KPIs performance, some tools help but I would not attribute the failure or success of any campaign to talkdesk.
I like that it is mostly web-based, having to download the call bar to make phone calls makes it more difficult for the user. Dispositioning phone calls is a real downer, TD has only one lvl dispositions so it is hard to categorize phone calls especially when you have multi-skill reps.
I really don't have much of an opinion here, when I got to the company it was already implemented.
I haven't had the need, I normally just find an article on the help page, I have had some questions answered but I wouldn't call it exceptional, they weren't bad at all, just what you expect from a support team is all.
  • Five9
I didn't select Talkdesk, the company did, I had no choice but to embrace it, I think Five9 is somewhat better because it is 100% web-based and it is really simple to manipulate agent groups, and data exports. TD can improve on that, Team Leader licenses are very limited.

Do you think Talkdesk delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Talkdesk's feature set?

No

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

It is a great tool because it is almost 100% online, I hate the fact that I have to download something additional to use the phone, the call bar I believe its called, I think it is good to have a call bar that can be put anywhere on the screen but it would be great to simply log in and call without having to do anything else at all. Also, Ring group exporting is not great,
