The best chat portal!

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: I have a five star experience with this software, this the best and so far.

Pros:

I work as a chat support in our company, I can say that this chat portal has a lot to offer compared to any other platforms we used to have. We have this text feature that our customer can chat with us even if they are not with their computers. Giving them the best experience possible with the help they want anytime anywhere. The dashboard itself is really cool, you can see all chat reports like average handling time, numbers of conversation and may more that helps in calculating our monthly statistics.

Cons:

So far, I can't see any down part on this software. I can say that this was developed perfectly.

A child could report metrics better than Quiq

1.0 4 years ago

Comments: Quiq has been nothing but trouble. It reports more chats than we've taken which is an important metric in my company, provides incorrect response times which leads to even more issues, and frequently bugs out and counts chats as missed or agents as unresponsive. There are way better softwares out there for Messaging. Customer support is also non-existent.

Pros:

I guess a point in it's favor is that settings can be tinkered with to make the experience more pleasant.

Cons:

Reporting is inaccurate and timing is not counted properly.

Cyprus Text Implementation

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: At our institution we did not have a texting or chat solution and we knew that it was something that we required given our type of business and our size. Quiq provided some answers to questions that we weren't even aware that we had. None of the other texting platforms had solutions for an entire contact center. We love the fact that the contact center can switch between text and chat, and that text can be an alternative to an inbound call. We also love that texting can be the primary communication medium for loan transactions because that is how borrowers want to communicate. This is a great company with wonderful customer service and people that really care about their clients. I feel like they are genuinely concerned about my success and will do anything possible to help me be successful.

Pros:

I like that the software seamlessly moves between text and chat depending on the device being used by the consumer. I can use the software for my entire call center, for outbound marketing, and for one on one interaction between loan officers and borrowers. I also like that the product appears to be on the cutting edge technologically. Some of the things we discussed involving Apple Business Chat and the road map make me very excited for the future of business text and chat.

Cons:

There is nothing that I like least about the software. Our only challenge at this point is deciding how we want to use it. I would suggest however that the implementation and initial training be a little more clear. However, because our institution didn't have a dedicated person to handle the initial implementation, I think the delay and confusion has been mostly our fault.

Quiq is easy, convenient, and effective

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Overall it's been a great experience. We wanted to try out SMS and have been really happy with our customer's response as well as how easy it was to implement. We also added Apple Business Chat and it was super easy and has worked great.

Pros:

The setup was super easy, it's easy to navigate and use.

Cons:

It's still new so there's not as many features or as much functionality as we'd like. However, their Customer Support is fantastic and they're working hard to make improvements and help us however they can. They're very responsive.

Great Product

4.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Easy to use, provides a simple response platform, allowing any user internally to respond in real time to guests. Offline feature is highly customizable as well.

Cons:

The response que box should indicate when a max # of words have been used. It's too easy to over type a response in "email" form when it's actually appearing on the customers phone as a 'text" and could become too lengthy.

Easy to onboarding and effective usage by customers. Good product overall

4.0 7 years ago

Pros:

Love the templates and easy use for the team. Love the sms features. They work well with ease. The admin tools are very good as well.

Cons:

Need more platforms for customers to use. We also would like to tag conversations around their topic to track why people use the platform. Mobile response would also be super helpful.

Easy to use and not too complicated.

4.0 7 years ago

Comments: Best benefit is the ability to have an agent work on more than one client at a time. Helps reduce FTE.

Pros:

Gives our customers that are out on the field, easy access to our call center. Most of our clients/dealers don't have easy access to a laptop when out on the field, so this is a great solution.

Cons:

Call center agents typically have multiple screes that they view during the day. It would be great if there was a pop-up feature that would appear when a call comes in. Just in case you're viewing another screen.

Even Older Demographics Use Messaging

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Quiq allows us to seamlessly switch between multiple customers, even those on different messaging platforms (sms, kik, etc). The Quiq environment is ideal for collaboration, so when it makes sense to transfer a customer from one agent to another, the transition is so smooth it is basically unnoticeable.

Cons:

The user interface is not as intuitive and nimble as I would have preferred. It takes multiple clicks for me to join a queued conversation.

Quick Quiqs and Messages

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: We use this for both customers and our field technicians. Along with the leads that generate from our website, bringing in new customers, we also send a lot of outbound messages to customers, requesting a picture of their system. We're able to provide quick accurate quotes, without a home visit. We also send our technicians any same day cancelations as well. Previously we were using MightyText and a cell phone in office for all of our outbound stuff, but we were having syncing issues, where messages didn't always appear in the app. Overall, the experience has been great. Interested to see what happens as our inbound continue to pick up steam.

Pros:

Quiq allows us to have a stronger online presence, and with snippets, you can be on the phone and in the chat, or in multiple chats at the same time with ease. Easily Editable Auto Response messages help let customers know available hours. Added a visual aspect to online/phone quotes by sending pictures to a group inbox via text.

Cons:

I wish it had a contact list, because of our outbound communication with field technicians. It's probably the only thing we lost when moving over from Mightytext. Quiq did help me setup bookmarks with phone numbers automatically populated to get me a work around, but now I have 50+ bookmarks, in folders.

Amazing Product for Sales/Support and a phenomenal dev. team.

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Quiq is a highly customizable software and the integration with Zendesk allows for a lot of automation and customization on both a Sales and a Support Side. With the use of Zendesk we're able to automate SMS flows and have timed responses in cases where a user doesn't respond to initial outreach. It has helped us grow quickly and efficiently through the uses of triggers, automation, and detailed reporting in and out of the software.

Cons:

At times of high congestion (300-400 active conversations concurrent), it can get a bit slow for agents but it isn't an issue 99% of the time. Lack of automated daily reporting exports/emails in the dashboard. Lack of query abilities for current conversations/searching for current conversations that are open and ongoing in the Manager / Reports View.

Comments: Becoming more multichannel. Giving our clients more options to contact us outside of the phone.

Pros:

Ease of use-Very user friendly tool. We are able to train users quickly and efficiently with no issues. Excellent customer service and support-The Quiq team is always available and willing to help us wherever needed.

Cons:

We are still relatively new to the platform and from what I have seen so far I have not run into any cons. This may be a case of not knowing what I don't know as I am still learning all that Quiq has to offer; however, I am not finding any cons at this point.

Quiq pilot to launch

5.0 5 years ago

Pros:

The simplicity of use, ease of integration and the team support from all levels at Quiq to ensure our success.

Review

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: I believe that Multichannel Messaging platform has benefited our company in many ways from customer satisfaction to the operation of our Service Center. I would definitely recommend this to others.

Pros:

I really enjoy being able to quickly connect with multiple customers at one time leading to an increase in customer satisfaction as well as improving my team's efficiency.

Cons:

I feel that when I have needed assistance regarding creating new logins, I did not receive the assistance expected. One of my CSRs did not have access for months because I was not assisted in finding a resolution.

this software is the definition of innovative

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

this software is the definition of innovative for messaging platforms. the options and functions available are really so informative that you do not need to look for information on chat status that you need. Also the function of the software to be able to chat with customers that are using their phones to text is really a big plus for this software. We just recently replaced our old chat system with this and so far I am really super satisfied.

Cons:

sometimes it's just really confusing since there are so many graphs showing on my window

The ease for the visitor as well as our team is what I enjoy most about working with Quiq. Plus, the Quiq team is always available should we have a question.

Cons:

There isn't something for me to call out as a "like least" or a con. I am nothing but extremely happy with the program and the Quiq team.
