About Talkdesk

Talkdesk is a cloud-based call center solution that helps businesses improve customer satisfaction while simultaneously reducing customer support costs. It uses interactive voice response (IVR), automatic call distribution (ACD) and skills-based routing, callers are routed to the agent who is most qualified to meet the needs based on customizable data.

Talkdesk displays the caller's name, image, contact information, purchase history and contact history in the agent's browser in real-time so they can personalize their conversations. The system automates tasks, so a new profile is created whenever a new contact calls. When a call is missed, Talkdesk sends an email containing call data, a voicemail recording and a transcription. Managers and agents are also able to make data-driven decisions with call monitoring, call recording, and real-time and historical reporting.

The system integrates with several different programs including InfusionSoft, Salesforce, Desk.com, Zendesk and Shopify. Price is per rep per month. Support is offered via knowledge base, email and phone.

Talkdesk makes the job run smoothly

4

Talkdesk is used as the main application for new and old customer contact accounts. It is used by every support and sales department in the entire company. The main difficulty it solves is the ability to reduce the number of windows or screens in the transition between different knowledge areas and, at the same time, display to staff/management when it is available and when it is not. Talkdesk is most optimal for companies that have a lot of knowledge and equally display to staff/management when it is available and when it is not. Your ability to switch between these areas is where it really pays off. That being said, I would not recommend it for a company that is all about email. Talkdesk really offers itself well to companies that use the "talk" function, otherwise it would not be of use to you.

Pros:
Streamline and speed up the difficulties of your usual procedure without affecting your intentions. If you wish, you may use its display mode or position it where you want it on the screen. Reduces the fatigue of switching seamlessly between major workspace tasks, such as email and chat, while maintaining openness with your group about food, meetings and time arrangements.
Cons:
When you log out, if you do not update your status to Offline, it will remain operative until the next time you log in. A note about your inability to customize the options available, it would be beneficial to have the ability to customize the option you have as an appointment or a staff. A major weakness I have been experiencing so far is that it sometimes fails; such as not being ready for calls when it is clearly impossible or not being able to accept calls from another.

Powerful phone system, though focus shifting away from startups

4

We needed a phone system which allowed our distributed team to take business calls on mobile numbers and not expose their personal phones. Talkdesk has empowered this use case, though we wish the apps were easier to use.

Pros:
Product is full featured, including full ability to call anywhere (including internationally), digital voicemail, contact management, calling from a browser, analytics and performance statistics, and integration with CRMs. You can also receive incoming calls via phone line rather than just via data connection. Many customization options including business hours settings, which phone lines to ring in certain circumstances, and a call tree builder are also helpful.
Cons:
For the longest time, Talkdesk did not have apps for iOS nor Android, but now it appears that they do as of October 2019. Even still, you need to activate the app via a technical support request, which is not a very user-friendly way to handle things. The web-browser based version occasionally hangs (nonresponsive) and a page reload is required, even though we are using a modern computer and modern browser. We've also noticed that the company's focus is shifting away from small customers and startups towards only enterprise customers, so the platform is not as easy to deploy or use for this segment as it was before.

Reasons for choosing Talkdesk

Balance between cost and feature set

Reasons for switching to Talkdesk

Grasshopper was not connecting all calls, meaning a customer would call us and leave a message, yet none of our agents were never rang or notified. We haven't had this problem much with Talkdesk (though, not never).

Pros:
This software is incredibly easy to use. Agents learn to use this tool in a matter of moments. Additionally, the Studio for IVR allows incredible flexibility in our IVR. This has made it easier for client to get to the correct team and helped to improve their overall satisfaction.
Cons:
The Reports. Talkdesk recently launched Explore which houses all the reports in one location but it is still really hard to know which report to run. Once you find your desired report, you need to pull it out to excel or google sheets to manipulate the data and build any kind of visual. However, most of the data you want can be found in these reports.

Reasons for choosing Talkdesk

Talkdesk had all the needed features (IVR, Recording, Monitoring call, real time report) and was the right price.

Reasons for switching to Talkdesk

We needed more features at the right price

My Talkdesk experience

5

All people from Talkdesk are very involve since the deployment process. During implementation, we deal with PS, they are just amazing, and they understand very well our organization and how we work. They also help us to improve our contact center. After implementation, we have our CSM and TAM who are taking over and it was very smooth. When we were on "run" the support team have been also very reactive, they answer very fast on all our quick request.

Pros:
The best feature for me is the Salesforce integration. It was on our main requirement and I'm really happy because it's 100% integrated. The other thing very important is the easy way to implement the solution. Talkdesk is a very user-friendly tool and it's an easy software to use
Cons:
I would like to have more options and granularity on the Talkdesk roles and be able to personalize more who get access on which feature

Reasons for choosing Talkdesk

For the very good integration with Salesforce, and we had a better feeling with Talkdesk as we share the same values.

Reasons for switching to Talkdesk

We move to talkdesk for PCI reasons, we had to work with a partner which have a global PCI DSS level 1 certification.

Call quality. If talkdesk could fix the random bouts of call quality issues, then this would be a near perfect solution.

Pros:
We've had a pretty good experience with TalkDesk since we launched it a few years ago. We love the ease of configuration, the built in reports, the great user interface, and the modern design. We switched over from a legacy/long-time vendor that was reliable, but very difficult to customize or even to pull reports from.
Cons:
TalkDesk should do a better job recommending hardware for agents. We had to go through 3 different headsets before settling on a good one. We also did have some complications during on-boarding but this was a few years ago so I'm sure they improved their process.

Cons:
Being in a call center where we connect potential clients with our real estate agents located all throughout the country, it is crucial to have quick access to our agent's personal phone #'s. We haven't been able to add, delete, or update any phone numbers to our "Favorites" list (serves as our internal phone directory) for a couple of weeks now and it doesn't seem like like any solutions are on the way
