think again before you buy into this service As a small business person I utilize CTM as a “ low cost” alternative for having a toll free number to allow potential CANADIAN clients to connect with me. Sounds good, correct? Well real world experience would suggest otherwise. 98% of the calls I receive are auto dialer spam calls from the USA where I do NO advertising whatsoever as I DO NOT DO BUSINESS IN THE USA. These calls simply deplete my prepayment for CTM and yield ZERO BENEFIT. CTM Help desk has been completely ineffective in coming up with a workaround that actually works. Managing or attempting to manage this issue costs me more than its worth in man hours. Some might suggest that this issue relates to the fact that I am buying in at the lowest price / tier level, however this is not the case as I am aware of large companies spending much more through CTM Who are experiencing similar issues. I would cancel however the toll free number I use is on all my marketing materials.

People answering the phone are not… People answering the phone are not great with customers. There are frequent long pauses or they put the customer on hold for no reason. There are also several phone calls where no one answers the phone. There shouldn't be a "poor connection" excuse.

Best Support Team I've Ever Encountered Call Tracking Metrics has the best support team I've ever encountered. They are all HUMAN and knowledgeable about the software. If there is something you need done, they work to understand what it is you're trying to accomplish and help you to do it--FAST. I always receive solutions to my questions within 5 minutes, or at least a response that they'll be with me soon. I wish all my support experiences could be like the way Call Tracking Metrics has theirs.

Lacking in many areas In our experience, CTM is lacking in many areas. For example: - Reporting: It is missing key KPIS such as - Abandon Call Percentage, Hold Times per call, Peak Call Hours, Avg Calls per minute (simultaneously), Current Wait time, How many calls in queue (LIVE). - Not a single feature request we submitted has been implemented. - Spotty calls via the web based softphone (which I suppose would be an issue with any web based system). - System Setup is not the most user-friendly. - Pricing is high for the quality of the system. - Customer service is always pleasant, however often times there is not always a resolution provided. Overall, I would not recommend Call tracking metrics.

Customer support staff is very helpful … Customer support staff is very helpful and responsive. Follow through on trouble tickets is a big improvement from our previous provider. There have been a few glitches here and there, but very minor and everything has been resolved quickly.
