## Cresta Reviews
  ### 1. Cresta game changer

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chad S. | University Director of Admissions, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Cresta real-time coaching with representatives has improved productivity with the middle of the pack members. Representatives are getting prompts real-time to improve conversations without waiting for call reviews with a manager. Seen B players rising up the ranks.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

Cresta is great product, dislike its your AI and it takes time to understand your business model and call methodology. You have to have patience and really a dedicated person who is almost an AI linguist once you figure it out everything changes but pack patience once you have it down its amazing.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Real time coaching with all representatives, it eliminates managers time to listen to live calls or recordings to provide coaching. Cresta provides us real-time coaching tools and coaching plans for each individual. 100% of conversations are captured for quick analysis and training.

  ### 2. Powerful Call Analysis, But Knowledge Assist Needs Improvement

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 09, 2025

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

The AI analytical ability.  It is able to analyze all telephone calls and help identify insights very easily.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

The model used for Cresta's knowledge assist is not very accurate in understanding the overall caller's intent, so the questions/answers it identifies are not relevant.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cresta has helped agents become more efficient on calls and helped reduce onboarding time.  It has also helped iwth call analysis.  We have also started using Cresta for quality assurance which is allowing us to review most/all calls instead of just a sampling when we were doing it manually.

  ### 3. Inbound Sales Chat

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Charles D. | inbound sales, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

What I like most with Cresta is that when you receive a chat, you have valuable info right there ready for you with the account number, name, and phone number to make it easy to pull up the account and have that ready to go. It is also great that you can see prior chat history so you can check that out to see what the customer needed last so you are fully prepared for what the customer throws at you.  I do also enjoy the predictive text to save having to type everything out though it can still be better.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

What I dislike most about Cresta is sms and app chats, there are fewer predictive text options if at all available. The payment system is terrible for new accounts that are inactive that need to send payment links to as there is no service to select as the account is not active to create the payment link causing issues and poor user experience for both agent and customer.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Automated responses help with handling times and create a positive experience.
Chat history helps with customers coming back for offers and being able to see previous offers mentioned to create a positive experience

  ### 4. Amazing  AI-Powered Coaching Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Emily R. | Digital Sales Manager, Inbound, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 13, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Cresta is a great coaching tool that allows me to review and score chats efficiently. I can read conversations and pull up the score guide on the right-hand side seamlessly. When I coach consultants, Cresta allows me to activate real-time hints in different conversation areas for each team member. Through the Cresta AI, the system learns to place these coaching hints from the thousands of conversations properly.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

I don't have complaints about the Cresta system at all. Once in a while, there will be a few bugs that prevent me from pulling up my team automatically, or I get a random error message when I try to score a chat, but these are very rare. If I report a problem, Cresta responds to my request in an appropriate amount of time.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In the past, I had to read chats and score in a different system, which often took a long time since I had to switch between tabs constantly. Everything I need to coach, conversations, hints, and coaching plans are all stored in one centralized system. I spend less time scoring and more time preparing and helping my team have great conversations.

  ### 5. Cresta has improved the way we work.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 13, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

For my consultants, they can't imagine working without it. As a leader of a chat team, the majority of my day is spent in Cresta Director and it is invaluable. It makes it very easy to review my consultants Coaching Plans and to score their conversations. For new hires, I enjoy the LIVE viewing feed so I can monitor the team easily and flip back and forth between conversations so I can provide immediate, on the spot feedback.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

Not really a dislike but with all technology, you want it exactly the way you want it and you want it to be right now. I would like to see some more personal customization and have it on the go. But with that said, the Cresta team is very responsive to change requests and evaluates based on priority.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The customization of Cresta Director so it has everything I need to make my job easier. It has all of my Coaching Plans in one organized place to review for myself and my consultants.

  ### 6. My experience with Cresta has been very enjoyable.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Marcus F. | Marketing Reservations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

I like being able to see the conversation. That way, if there is something I forget, I can go back and look over it. I also like the fact that we can review calls after they are completed, in order to improve our skills and become better. Being able to see what is being said is very important in the space that we work in, so it helps with call reviews and training as well. I think this is the type of technology that will be incorporated into many call center and business settings. I would definitely recommend this product to my peers and colleagues.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

The only thing I would want to improve would be the application itself, at times it doesn't work correctly. When I first started in the department,  I could not get the application to work correctly and had issues with the IT team so that these issues would be resolved. Also sometimes the words I use aren't always shown, which may be an error on my part to make sure I annunciate correctly.

**Recommendations to others considering Cresta:**

I would tell people looking at cresta that it is definitely a positive and should consider it.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They are solving the problem of misrepresentation, since the calls are being logged. Now we have the ability to ensure that when a guest says that they were told one thing or another, we can have the script and read through while we listen, so that we are sure of the information that we are consuming to be true. There is definitely a space for the information to be utilized.

  ### 7. I like that cresta allow you to review the call logs after the call.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ruth D. | Travel advisor, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 01, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

I like that cresta transcribe the audio call to text and we are able to follow through as we go through the call. However, it will be nice if cresta can transcribe it properly for the bilingual customers that have accent. When you read the text, it's completely different from the audio.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

I don't like when the guest provide their phone number, cresta hide the number and show it as asterisks. That is not helpful at all, I don't know why they switch it from the original format.

**Recommendations to others considering Cresta:**

I would say go for it, it's easy to use and provide resourceful tips.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cresta is making review calls easier and more thorough for team members and managers. I think it's very beneficial and useful for us especially if the guest claim something was offered when it wasn't.

  ### 8. Efficiency at it's best!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stacy R. | Regional Contact Center Training Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

The Cresta application gives the ability to see the call transcript.  This is good for future review of the customer calls but especially important for coaching the agents to the next level.  This feature also allows the agent to self-check their performance to determine what they can do better on the next call.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

There aren't many downsides, but what would be nice is to see the agent's view.  When training the database currently, the only way to explain the application in its entirety, we must use screenshots of the agents.

**Recommendations to others considering Cresta:**

Use it daily!

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Efficiency and effectiveness are huge problems that Cresta is tackling.  I especially like how the Cresta team listens to our needs and shortly after there are new features added to offer us additional abilities to make Cresta a one-stop-shop for coaching and quality assurance.

  ### 9. Inbound Sales Chat

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Courtney B. | Inbound Sales Chat, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Cresta is helpful with having the account number, and if the customer is logged into the account. I also enjoy I can see when the customer is typing. I can take more chats if I want.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

I find it hard for the system to stay connected to our VPN and it will time out. Also, the suggestions that come up sometimes are not even relevant to the conversation. The payment option dose not always work.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cresta helps my wrist not be so tired all day from typing. It also benefits me because I am able to easily transfer a customer to a different department, as well as read what another agent said to the customer from a previous chat.

  ### 10. Very helpful in remember what guests said.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jalana T. | Guest Love Agent, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Good to remember conversation and verify what you or a guest said. Also very helpful in keeping track of call throughout the day. Very helpful to backtrack if you want to remember a telephone number or name without getting the guest frustrated.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

Sometimes it does not transcribe properly or pick up on calls. Also when you review the telephone calls it bleeps out all the number which i know it is more for credit card privacy but sometime shearing the telephone number is useful.

**Recommendations to others considering Cresta:**

Very useful to keep track of work and calls

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Holding agents accountable for what they tell guests and promise during the time of booking. For training purposes easier to pull up the call versus our actual phone system that we use.

  ### 11. I really feel that cresta is very helpful

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** hazel p. | marketing Reservations, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

the feature i like the most is the recommendations when talking to a guest

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

i dont like that the phone number is in stars sometimes you really cant here the guest very well and before you can see the number it was super helpful. If they can find a way to not allow the credit cards number to show but allowthe phone number would be awaesome.

**Recommendations to others considering Cresta:**

Since having cresta it has been more easier to get my job done and sufficient.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

for me its very helpful cause im a very forgetful person so i dont like asking questions the same questions over and over with cresta i can go back and see what the guest stated if its in dates or any problem.

  ### 12. Inbound Sales Chat Supervisor

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mike N. | Inbound Chat Supervisor, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

The responsiveness from the company. They take out feedback and execute very quickly with suggestions. They have roundtables and ask about our likes and dislikes about it.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

With new updates it can be buggy at times. Like for example: clocking and timing out occasionally. The bright side is a responsive support email available to us and they give updates a long the way

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

"Chat Flow" As a supervisor my duties are split between coaching and meetings. Cresta is a little piece of AI that gives my agent a side by side to remember to do the right selling behaviors even when I am not there.

  ### 13. Cresta Review 3.0

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jalana  M. | Guest Love Team Agent, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

I like that it can translate your conversation. I often use it to go back and fill in information , I may have forgoten to add to my guest profile. I have never use another brand.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

I dislike that it records you if you on a call or not. It often doesn't translate words correctly. This product could be better if translate words correctly. Improvements should be in translation.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Creasta helps us go back and review conversations easy. I am not benefiting financally off of this. This doesn't affect my productivaty. I think performance has increased in communication skills, it helps our team with reviews on how we could say things differently in similar conversations.

  ### 14. Great ApplicatioN

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bianca C. | Guest Love Agent, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Great concept, that helps to see in live time calls to verify what agents and guest are stating.   It is also great for coaching agents on calls.  Helps go back when you want to make sure what was stated on a call

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

The phone number is removed from when you are speaking with someone, where as in previous it would show up.  Not everything that is stated shows up in the transcript properly.  Scrolling works weird.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My memory is bad so being able to review the call in real time is really helpful feature.  Also being able to search for older calls.  Copy and paste transcripts.

  ### 15. Cresta A.I.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jason L. | Director - Contact Center Training, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 17, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Cresta has helped our Reservations Team improve conversion by almost 5 points since inception.  Our leaders love Cresta Director to manage their teams better, saving time and helping with retention.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

Currently, there are no dislikes.  Cresta seems to listen to our team members and leaders to build what we need specific to our business, and they do it at lightning speed.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cresta is customizing our call flows, hints, and transcripts, allowing us to have real-time coaching with our team members.  Doing this has proved invaluable to both our sales agents and our leaders by saving time and helping our agents book more effectively.

  ### 16. Cresta the Timesaver and Organizer!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Valerie H. | Divisional Manager

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2022

**What do you like best about Cresta?**

Cresta helps us doing our jobs more effectually. For the agents on the team, it helps guide them through their phone calls. For leaders, it helps them to monitor the agents phone calls and provide timely coaching’s.

**What do you dislike about Cresta?**

I wouldn't say their are any downsides to Cresta, it is AI, so it learns over time and gets better each day. This will improve the transcriptions of the calls.

**What problems is Cresta solving and how is that benefiting you?**

One of the biggest wins for us would be the time saved to coach an agent. This prior would take 15-20 minutes to pull a call, review it and document the details of the call. With Cresta, you have the ability to coach an agent right on the call in the Director screen, it auto saves as you go to never lose where you were. This has reduced the time to 5-10 minutes to prepare this for the agents.
