N/A
Viber, now from Rakuten (acquired 2014) is an instant messaging and cross-platform VoIP software solution designed for personal use and available for both desktops and as a mobile app. It includes features such as video and audio calls, instant message, and unlimited-member group chats. Users can also make paid international calls.
We were recommended CloudTalk basically from everybody in our network so we reached out directly to them at first and since they had everything we were looking for, feature-wise, and also were in our budget, we didn't really consider other vendors on the market. The …
There were several services suitable for our needs. CloudTalk was chosen because of its simplicity, complexity, and brief time needed to use this service. No broad technical knowledge is required to start and operate CloudTalk.
Better value for the money (by far). And besides that, all the features we needed, CloudTalk has them. Shoutout to their support for answering all the questions we had and to their CSM team for giving us a quick demo on the same day when we requested it. Recommended solution!
Cloudtalk is well-priced for what we need from it. The fact that it has many features that we plan to use in the future is a deciding factor, and that gives it a big advantage. So the biggest impact was the comprehensiveness of the solution and the integration with the CRM.

Chose CloudTalk
We tried dealing with Aircall, but their solution didn't seem so flexible and the initial adoption cost was way out of our context. We learned later that the solution was in fact more flexible than we thought, but were disappointed by the little quality of their before-sales …
So much better, much cleaner design. Much less complicated setup process. Has a much more up-to-date program. You can use the browser version or the stand-alone app, both are far more fleshed-out pieces of software. It is also much more reliable, haven't had the app crash even …
CloudTalk is a lot more intuitive and provides more features and analytics than 3CX. The fact it allows for integration as well means we can stay on top of all of our missed calls and know exactly what client rang linking them to their company account.
RingCentral has major issues syncing in real-time. The Web app and the desktop app never showed the same numbers. Often I'd have to wait hours for reports to update and then still had no confidence in the information presented.
CloudTalk is significantly more affordable, easy to setup and the trial month was very helpful to ensure it was what we needed. AirCall can probably do a lot more but I cannot tell you what and I don't believe we need more as we are not a complex business that needs multiple …
The pricing is more interesting and the fact they have a product easy to use with integrations with both our Sales and Support CRM's made us chose them. We were also told that a lot of the features we needed would be implemented in the soon future so let's see if it happens.
I have been using WhatsApp quite often for private and sometimes professional usage and in the past Skype and ICQ. WhatsApp is for free but I would say that CloudTalk provides a higher quality while talking so if I should choose between them for messages is WhatsApp very easy …
The first thing is cost. CloudTalk was a lot cheaper than others. The other thing I noticed is that there were a lot of unwanted or unnecessary features with the other ones that didn't really matter to us, but were more [than] able to ask a higher price per seat. However, the …
It was a gamble if I'm being honest, plus this is a very nuanced and intricate topic. We didn't necessarily substitute one for the other, it was a much needed state of affairs where we needed the call monitoring and agent tracking pros of CloudTalk more so than ever before.
The integration of CloudTalk with Pipedrive makes the native Pipedrive call system practically unnecessary. The latter does not allow searching for calls or generating indicators as well achieved as in CloudTalk.
Before CloudTalk, we used Pipedrive. It also works really well, but it does not have the option of analytics. You could not check things like how many calls were made during the day or a specific time period. That, for me, is the most valuable feature of CloudTalk--all the data …
It's the perfect complement to the other services we use as it permits us to get in contact with our clients in order to not only have good communication inside of the company but also outside the company with our clients. It really rounds up the whole package. It's just the …
CloudTalk service is immediately available once a profile is created and payment is made. Five9 indicated it would take up to 2 weeks to have full access to the service.
Though it was not my decision from switching from Circleloop, when we had originally used CircleLoop it gave some issues with internal transfer and taking calls which heavily affected us. With CloudTalk we can now successfully make outbound calls without any problems.
CloudTalk has a better value for the money spent and has been easier to set up than other peers in that regards as well as better overall integration with already existing Software that we have been using for years in our company. At the end, the communication with CloudTalk …
CloudTalk is much more configurable. It is very easy to send proactive SMS messages with CloudTalk whilst with Zendesk Talk this can only be done through a workaround. Zendesk does not provide Chinese virtual numbers either and outbound calls were not working to Chinese numbers …
End-to-end encryption scrambles my messages and delivers them as a scrambled code to my friend's device, whether mobile or desktop, so that only their device can decode them into plain text. If my friend's phone is turned off or they don't have access to the internet, my …
Rakuten Viber is overall the best. Hands down!!! Even though the other products have their own use and they are well functioning in the market, but Rakuten Viber is still top notch!
I do not know about other products like Viber. Viber works fine on your cell phone and you can also install it on your laptop or desktop. In general I use Viber on my mobile.
Viber comes close to WhatsApp with its similar features, that said, I still prefer WhatsApp as more friends and coworkers use it. I prefer to use Slack for my other profession as a remote English teacher as it allows me to get notifications in a format that avoid annoying …
Skype's user interface is really glitchy and doesn't provide same functionality in terms of fun elements - emojis or gifs. Slack is excellent communication tool but as well doesn't provide fun elements as Viber does(emojis, memes, gifs and more). I should also mention that …
We started using Viber many years ago. The WhatsApp application was good to connect with people via text messages but it did not have the calling feature. Free calls could be made using Viber. Hence, it was used as a mode of communication within our group. Viber could also be …
I have compared Viber to Skype in the past, and there are two main differences I see. First, with Skype, you are not limited to calling only other Skype users (this limitation exists with Viber). Second, Skype's call quality almost always wins, which I believe is thanks to …
Before Viber, we were using Slack. Our colleagues were using slack only at work. But Viber is used for personal needs too. That is why we switched to Viber because we can reach to our colleagues anytime and from anywhere.
Better pricing than Skype. Skype has a better platform. Skype really excels in terms of video conferencing capability, the quality of image and the platform is clearly better than Viber. Viber and Skype have been in the market for a while, yet no one relies on Viber for video …
We evaluated Whatsapp and Line as 2 other tools alongside with Viber and finally decided to go ahead with Viber since we found Viber's call quality especially on international calls to be really clear and much better without any disconnections or static when we compared it with …
It's faster than all of above, better for cross platform communication and unlike the above examples (Skype for business and Slack), not directly tied to organization. Its other alternative (not listed on TrustRadius) is WhatsApp, which, in my opinion is a copy of Viber. Viber …
Skype has UI problems and makes the fun elements such as emojis and gifs hard to use. Slack is a good communication tool but has again less fun elements and is more work-oriented so it doesn't contribute a lot to a fun working atmosphere. Whatsapp was never even in the game …
Skype offers similar communication features as Viber, but Viber is more convenient as it uses the phone number as contact details. So instead of having to remember the user id, you just need to add your business partner's contact number and you have their viber already. Al, o …
While comparing these two applications with the Viber, I would say, the main advantage of the Viber is that it is very widely used in my region unlike other two. Otherwise, the functionality and other stuff are pretty much the same, while I slightly go for the Viber's voice …
Cloudtalk is by far the best value-for-price software out there for call center solutions. Packed with features, very accessible, kind and accessible customer support, and cheap, especially when compared with their competitors for the same range of features. Easy entry-level software, especially if you're a startup that doesn't want to make big initial commitments but needs a solution that scales with the business.
It's perfect for messaging and group messaging, especially when users in group are from different places, organizations... (unlike slack where you have to be member of same organization to be in same group). The video calls are the weak point of the app, so Viber is not good for conference calls, video calls and especially for group video conference calls.
As far as I can tell, Viber lacks the feature to block specific callers/numbers. I've never needed to do this, but I'd like to know I have the option.
Viber cannot be used without wifi, so it is not possible to connect with contacts who aren't also using Viber. (Unless you want to use the paid service.)
This isn't a major complaint, but I find the layout of Viber to be a little cluttered. Comparing it to WhatsApp, I don't find it to be quite as user-friendly, and I sometimes stumble around to find my way to a contact to call.
CloudTalk is super easy to use and has a great quality. It helps to communicate with the clients easily and we can feel that the sound quality is high, while speaking to the client and while listening to the recordings. This is for our department essential in our day to day work.
They are skilled, experienced, and anytime I need something and contact the support time, I get the right person who understands my needs and reacts to them accordingly. So far I was only pleasantly surprised by the level of support these guys provide and coming from a customer service oriented background myself, I can only say keep it up guys, you are doing a fantastic job!
I have not frequently used the support for Viber as I have not had many problems with it on my phone. I did use support one time for problems with the computer application and used the forums to solve my problems. They were fairly easy to follow and I appreciated the online help in that format.
It was a gamble if I'm being honest, plus this is a very nuanced and intricate topic. We didn't necessarily substitute one for the other, it was a much needed state of affairs where we needed the call monitoring and agent tracking pros of CloudTalk more so than ever before.
Rakuten Viber is overall the best. Hands down!!! Even though the other products have their own use and they are well functioning in the market, but Rakuten Viber is still top notch!
Rakuten Viber allows me to delete any type of message I've sent
Rakuten Viber can't access or read my private conversations in the first place, Viber can't sell them.
Hidden Chats allows me to keep whatever chats I want away from my main chat list, so they don't show up in my main chat list. Only a PIN that I set gives me access to Hidden Chats.
