Has efficient call routing feature and is useful to make and receive calls
Pros and Cons
  • "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."
  • "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."
