A Great Tool with a Great Future

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use it for internal communication and joint calls with clients as I focus on marketing research. Connecting with Hubspot allows me to sync data to know when a client is ready to talk. The interviews are easily recorded, and I evaluate them later. It's great that I don't have to search for the data in different tools, but I can get it in a few clicks, which makes marketing research easier.

Pros

  • Connection and synchronization of data with existing CRM
  • Great support who can always advise and is available when we need them
  • Independent of the fixed telephone line running on the VoIP protocol

Cons

  • I don't know about anything suits me

Return on Investment

  • Saves a bunch of time that can be devoted to other things. This has a higher return and makes more sense compared to the competition.
  • Salespeople have all the information they need in the CRM, including research, allowing them to make better decisions, strategies and increase sales.

Looking for a simplistic, effective and fantastic system? CloudTalk is for you then!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

All of our work is based in the US, so CloudTalk helped us gain a US number as we are located in the UK. We have Salesforce as a CRM system and CloudTalk made it super easy to install their app and also to integrate it with our CRM system. It's great to have a system all in one place and one that is so simplistic.

Pros

  • It's extremely simple to install and integrate
  • Their smart dialer option reduces time spent typing in number and helps make more calls
  • It makes life super easy to keep track of calls being made and how long calls are but also to listen back on calls made

Cons

  • I honestly could suggest any improvements at this time but that may change in the future

Return on Investment

  • With helping us gain a US number, it's made us able to call candidates and clients which we've completed multiple deals
  • Being able to integrate CloudTalk with Salesforce, saves us a lot of time typing in numbers individually in which we can make more calls

Excellent tracking tool for us!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We're using CloudTalk to monitor the source of our calls and to operate the right dispatches to the right salespeople. This enabled us to have a clearer vision of the ROI of our actions, especially when it comes to printed media. We also needed a tool that offered ease of setup and maintenance, compatible with our numerous Hubspot workflows.

Pros

  • Tracking
  • Ease of setup.
  • Ease of adoption by our sales team.

Cons

  • The documentation could be clearer.
  • Personalization seems confusing at first, and requires a bit of test and learn.

Return on Investment

  • Positive: tracking of our printed efforts.
  • Positive: ridiculous cost for our sector.
