Career Advisor
4.0

Mike: Hi, my name's Mike, I'm a Career Advisor. I would give Five9 four out of five stars. For more reviews like this, please click below. Five9 allows us to connect with our customers spread out across the entire world, mostly throughout the US, but also in other countries, as well. As a career advisor, we help a lot of military families. And being able to connect with people wherever they are without having to dial country codes and just having a seamless system is great. Really, it just lets us keep track of all of our learners seamlessly and efficiently. My favorite parts of Five9 are the fact that it's all contained within the plugin that we use in our Salesforce application. So basically, we can have full access to our phones, our voicemail, transfers, inbound calls, outbound calls, all while working within our CRM. So it's a one-size-fits-all tool for us, where we don't have to have lots of different applications running and everything can just be in one location, it makes it really easy. If I could change anything about Five9, I think I'd make it a little bit more consistent on wireless networks. It's definitely very stable when you are connected to ethernet, but if you are on a wifi network or you're sharing a network, as a lot of people probably are in their remote work-from-home environments, it can be a little bit spotty with some dropped calls and connectivity issues.

President
5.0

Jamie: My name is Jamie, I'm the president. I'm going to give Dialpad five stars. And for more reviews like this, click below. Prior to Dialpad, we were using an old fashioned copper landline phone system in an office. And we were using cell phones when we were not in the office. One of the big problems we had, as so easy as it sounds, is it didn't integrate with my system, so we had to physically dial and had a lot of missed dials and wrong numbers. And then you also had people dialing our landline number, which is different than our cell phone numbers. We decided we needed a system like Dialpad because we wanted a single system. Whether we were in our office, working in a Starbucks, working at home, on the road, from our office phone, from our computer, from a cell phone, one thing that worked for all. Very pleasantly surprised how easy it was to integrate Dialpad, both as a cell phone app and on the computer. And it easily integrated with the other recruiting software that we used. It was extremely easy. I am not overly technical, and it worked flawlessly without even a need for help desk support. Strongly consider Dialpad, even over some of the bigger names that are out there that they compete with. The support is excellent when needed, but I've needed it very little. It integrates flawlessly. It sets up nicely, and the price is right. I would absolutely give it serious consideration.
