Talkdesk does an excellent job with productivity reports. I can monitor my agent's lives during calls and their current status, allowing me to affect them productively at that moment. I can also download a productivity report on Talkdesk to analyze historical data and see patterns and problems.

  • Being able to check on colleagues on whether they are available.
  • Able to track your work for the day, the amount of calls you made and received.
  • Being able to check your Daily and monthly score from QA.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • The core maintenance, migration and deployment of Voice prompts, functions alongwith flow changes is crucial and is a key missing feature. Development in Production was a shocker and led to lot of confusion and limitation during the implementation and testing.
  • The AI feature is not as supported and reliable in Non English language
  • The Support team seems very lean to handle heavy loads of issue thereby delaying the resolution of the issue. One of our critical issue took almost 2 months to resolve which could have been handled better by proactively driving the issue from talkdesk end.
  • The support ticket does not have any escalation process. It needs to add the severity/ impact to number of agents and have people to support escalation especially involving Call Quality/network/Reporting/storage

Talkdesk is an enterprise grade solution for telephony service. Zendesk eould be the only other option in terms of solutions I have implemented and seen in practice. It is easy for business users to learn how to use talkdesk and develop call routing paths dependong on the nature of the customer's request

Usability
No answers on this topic
It's good for monitoring and quality checking. Overall, I'm happy with Talk Desk. Call quality is great, recordings are high quality, and playback has no issues. Administrator features are well-designed. Talkdesk is a great platform for our Customer support. It has many features and is an omnichannel platform. I like the IVR design the most; it has a lot of functionality to customise interactions between agents and customers.

Talkdesk is very handy but, sometimes we do face issues were the system can just kick you out and not be able to do calls or receive calls but, what I like about the system once you start refreshing or troubleshooting, everything becomes normal it is a unique system and very modern we don't usually have system issues with Talkdesk.

Performance
No answers on this topic
I give this system a full 10/10 once you refresh or troubleshoot you do not wait for too long to use it . It easy like ABC . I honestly recommend this system, even when you check the QA score card, you do not have to wait that long; you just click on the notification bell and view your score card.

Support Rating

If Talkdesk had a dedicated phone support line I would have given this rating an overall 10. Their knowledge base is absolutely HUGE and at times very helpful. It's easy to search through and their customer support chat system works perfectly fine, but there are just some times that you need to speak to a human on the phone to ensure you are always on the same page.

Nothing is perfect!! Needing the ability to repeat the training so everyone was on board was important. Not real sure how many people had to repeat the training as they trained on their own and given 30 minutes at a time.

Really easy to get set up out of the box. Anything I needed to understand further, I was able to just hop into the Academy and self-teach. I could then bring my team-members to those same sections so they could learn as well without me having to put together complicated SOP's / etc
