"Efficient Call Management, Needs Better Support"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

I really appreciate Sharpen for its queue callback feature that improves customer service and boosts efficiency. It allows customers to request a callback instead of staying on hold, which helps in decreasing abandoned calls and reduces the need for customers to call back or leave messages. Additionally, setting up Sharpen was easy, which I find highly beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

They could improve support and communication when servicing or updating their platform, which would reduce any downtime. Ensuring customers know the software update schedule ahead of time would help operational planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Melissa Schmitz of Sharpen

Joe, thank you for the feedback on our Queue Callback and Support experience!

It’s great to hear that our Queue Callback feature is successfully driving down your abandonment rates and that you found the initial setup process seamless—we aim for that "easy-to-start" experience. I also want to sincerely thank you for your transparency regarding our support and communication during platform updates. We recognize that unexpected downtime or lack of visibility into update schedules can disrupt your operational planning.

Here is how we are addressing your feedback:

• Proactive Communication: We are currently refining our notification process to ensure customers receive more advanced notice regarding maintenance windows and feature deployments.

• Support Accessibility: We’re working on streamlining our support channels to ensure that when you do have questions during an update, you get answers faster.

If you have specific suggestions, please feel free to reach out to us at csmteam@sharpencx.com.

Best regards,

Rebecca Burdick, Head of Customer Success at Sharpen

"Impressive Company with a closet full of solutions!"
5/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

Sharpen platform is so deep with so many parts to it. To pick one area of "The Best" about Sharpen would do any justice. However I do want to mention that the Sharpen Care Team has been instrumental with our growth. They are always at our beckon call. If an answer to my question is given during the phone call they get right back to me within a short amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

Everything has been great with Sharpen. One downside that Sharpen may not be able to control is user error. I feel the system is easy to use. However some with lesser computer knowledge may have a few extra questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to implement and use. Great to partner with."
5/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

Sharpen is easy to use and support responds quickly. We are excited for functionality we have seen on their roadmap in the near future as well. We have seen a lot of improvements in stability and functionality since going live at the end of 2020. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

Great to partner with and find solutions. We have run into a few situations where Sharpen handles something differently than what we would consider standard on other platforms and require a product enhancement request to make the change. These enhancements may require a global change to the platform rather than a change to just our org. Sharpen support is quick to offer workarounds where possible.

Nothing. They are great business partners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Smart Easy to Use tools and insights!"
5/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

Their helpdesk is probably the most helpful thing I've encountered in any system. Anytime I have questions, concerns, or trying to build, they're always right there to lend me a hand. I know there's no extra charge and they are so friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

The usual cloud glitches. Not capturing interaction notes in reports from email queues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Contact Center Environment"
5/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

The implementation process was fairly smooth, felt very supported by the SharpenCx team throughout the build and were very accommodating when we needed extra support in the training aspect. It is a great contact center solution system as there is a wide range of trackable metrics. Our contact center uses the system daily and it is very user-friendly and has helped reduce our abandoned/missed calls. The system offers several features and the support team has been great at walking us step by step to make sure that we are able to take full advantage of what the system offers. The administrator account does require more time and knowledge to navigate but the SharpenCx team has been great at providing the support when needed. Thank you to Mack, Matt, and Amila for all the support that they have provided, the Jira team is also very quick to respond and troubleshoot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

There are some metrics that are affected by UTC time and it is a bit of nuisance but the SharpenCx team are working diligently to resolve this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient, easy to navigate, and helpful."
4/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

I like how easy it is to navigate the website. I like the feature where you can toggle the queues that you're logged into for the call queue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

I wish it had a speed adjuster when listening to calls so we can listen to a call at 2x speed. Also, an easier interface when you open a call to skip easier, instead of having to pause, move the slide bar and then click. Just a little time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sharpen has been a great phone system. They are quick to respond and resolve issues that arise."
4/5
What do you like best about Sharpen?

I love that our agents can see all of their interactions in one place. Whether Calls, texts, chats, emails, etc. All things in one system make it easier to manage and help our customers. I also love that we can now include our QA score within Sharpen. It really is a one-stop shop for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sharpen?

I don't know that there is anything I dislike about Sharpen. There are a few things that might seem frustrating for some; for example, each reply creates a new interaction so if you are working with someone with an issue, when they reply the interaction does not stay with you. Also, the way you add attachments to an email is weird but once you get used to it, it's not bad. Overall I have had a pretty good experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
