Deputy Senior Manager, Customer Interaction Management at DEWA
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.

AI automation has reduced handling time and has improved support quality across channels
Some of the best features that TalkDesk offers are ease of use and customization, valuable training resources, responsive support, and also AI and automation capabilities, Agent Assist, and speech analytics and sentiment analysis.All the features that I have mentioned make the biggest difference for our team, providing an intuitive interface allowing for easy navigation and customization options tailored to our collaboration needs. TalkDesk has been really helpful in my organization as this tool has reduced average AHT from four minutes to two minutes, CSAT increased over thirty percent, and our QM team evaluates calls twenty percent faster. Most of the changes that made it possible to reduce average AHT and increase CSAT are low-code or no-code, which lets us maneuver quickly when we need to implement changes or new features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support services are good."
"It's scalable, it's fast, and it is very robust."
"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."
"With TalkDesk, you get to use TalkDesk Studio, which allows you to easily create outbound campaigns, and I am very happy with it."
"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."
"TalkDesk has been really helpful in my organization as this tool has reduced average AHT from four minutes to two minutes, CSAT increased over thirty percent, and our QM team evaluates calls twenty percent faster."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"TalkDesk enhanced customer service with AI."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."
"It is very simple to learn how to use TalkDesk."
 

Cons

"Its scalability means that it is not a simple 'install and forget' setup."
"The solution should be more flexible on-premises. We are currently on-premises and looking to move to the cloud."
"TalkDesk can be improved by providing real-time alerts into Slack or email besides the new tool within Live, which requires the dashboard to be opened."
"The solution lacks some features for outbound campaigns compared to other providers."
"While using TalkDesk, I noticed that sometimes the default color scheme, especially in night mode, wasn't suitable for elderly users."
"There were two big issues, but in a general statement, it is a stable tool."
"One area for improvement in TalkDesk is its graphical environment, which doesn't allow for customized placement of icons or separate pages, making it challenging to organize and maintain complex applications. Additionally, for IVR applications, it lacks certain features like default inter-digit timeout settings or overall prompt timeout settings, which are common in other products. I also faced challenge was with call logging, as the system didn't perform well in retrieving and playing back call audio during development, although this might have been due to our specific setup or data volume."
"The drawback of the tool revolves around the fact that I see it is very slow when loading the pages."
"We faced issues with bulk SMS."
"Reporting can take a long time to load, and the administration user interface can be unintuitive if you are not familiar with it, and it lacks bulk SMS capabilities."
 

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."
