What do you like best about iContact?

I like how easy it is to use and how the quality of the calls is clear! I am a customer service representative for Titan Technologies that helps individuals with unemployment benefits, so I need to be able to switch between several individuals over the course of my work day! InContact seamlessly makes this transition while also allowing me to log how each individual call goes. This makes it very easy for my company to keep records of the type of calls we are receiving and the user interface to achieve this is very easy to use as well! Thank you very much InContact for a reliable service! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iContact?

Occasionally it will disconnect or encounter a technical error, but it can easily be fixed majority of the time with logging out and logging back in and or switching browsers. There is also often times what appears to be a manual log off by the supervisors, but I believe that would be an issue concerning my own company. Over all, very stable! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is iContact solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to connect with several individuals in an average day is exactly what we needed as an assisting Agency in order to do this job during this time! It allows me to switch between several individuals as I have previously mentioned in a matter of a minute, which allows me to help out many people reliably, in a timely manner, and effectively! The problem being solved here is how a large company can manage thousands upon thousands of calls per hour while still being an effective agency and being able to help out. Its my company that trained me to become knowledgeable of the databases we use and its InContact that is the most effective tool to connect the knowledge base, a live agent, and a wonderful claimant!
