Abeer ELADAWY - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides omnichannel AI features and has good routing capabilities
The routing capabilities are excellent. We have priority routing set up for VIP customers, disabled customers, and those with special needs, ensuring they receive prompt and efficient service. We have implemented a use case where AI helps when a customer calls and says, "My bill is high." The AI searches the customer's profile to check if the high consumption is real or just a misunderstanding. If it is high, the AI creates a notification for the backend to check the issue. The system automatically generates the bill and the notification for the agent, who then views and either submits or rejects the notification. I recommend using the solution for all the features I have mentioned before, including the excellent AI experience, omnichannel, self-service, and customer journey features. I rate it a nine.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's scalable, it's fast, and it is very robust."
"The technical support services are good."
"The solution is quite user-friendly."
"TalkDesk enhanced customer service with AI."
"With TalkDesk, you can use add-ons, like extensions, from another application. TalkDesk allowed us to leverage metrics and analyze long calls using additional add-ons. I remember using Observe.AI, which was a game-changer for our project involving governmental information."
"I believe it is a great return because our last solution did not have this strict relationship."
"TalkDesk and their online support being very helpful. I collaborated with another resource who managed call routing, and my role was to develop applications that interacted with the routing system as needed, such as taking over calls for payment processing and directing any issues to the appropriate support personnel."
"The tool is similar to RingCentral. It automatically integrates with your systems, so you can make calls directly from Teams instead of making calls with the TalkDesk application. It also has sentiment analytics features, similar to AI features, where you can analyze the tone of the person you're speaking with, determining if they are angry or happy. You can pull back data and analyze it on a separate system."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its calling feature. It is very stable for outbound calls, and the tool's call routing feature is efficient. We integrated it with Zendesk. I answered the calls in my queue and transferred the ones that were for escalation. TalkDesk is very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"The solution should be more flexible on-premises. We are currently on-premises and looking to move to the cloud."
"Its scalability means that it is not a simple 'install and forget' setup."
"There is room for improvement in the flexibility of the dashboard and reporting customization."
"Inbound calls are shaky, especially if your internet speed is not high. It happens because of the internet bandwidth. The solution must be stable for regions with slow internet speeds, such as South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya. It is because Africa doesn't have a good internet infrastructure."
"While using TalkDesk, I noticed that sometimes the default color scheme, especially in night mode, wasn't suitable for elderly users."
"The solution's reporting feature is sometimes delayed and could be improved."
"The product must automate certain features so the agents do not have to do things manually."
"The drawback of the tool revolves around the fact that I see it is very slow when loading the pages."
"One area of improvement is the customization options for cloud storage."
"We faced issues with bulk SMS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Avaya Contact Center solutions might not be the cheapest solution available (but you certainly get what you pay for)."
"If we need less number of licenses, the pricing will be high."
"TalkDesk's pricing is with the investment."
