Optimizing communication in Denmark's largest retailer

Our end-users are happy. Our customers gets help faster in our stores, so they are happy too.And from a IT perspective we have zero downtime, and great management features. And there are still new features coming. All in all, a very good experience!
Pros
The management console is the key feature for us in IT. It makes our work easier. The up-time is also a something I feel is worth mention. Not yet did we have any issue on the front. And at last the efficient/fast communication
Cons
It's hard to point out something. A lot of times the issues we have or the request we have is fixed. I think the only feature we're missing now is the option for display names in channels. That gives the option for more and better integration with MDM solutions without leaving the end-user with weird channel names.
Reasons for Switching to Zello
The easy setup process and the management console.- Industry: Telecommunications

Zello is so easy to use and train new employees. Being able to communicate with others in our group is vital and Zello helps us stay connected.
Pros
What I like most about Zello is that I can get ahold of anyone when I need to no matter the location. Our techs were out in the field and I can easily communicate with them at any time. Plus, the battery life is great!
Cons
In some of our territory locations, cell phone signal is very low. This can cause some issues but luckily we do not encounter this often.

We are a police corporation in the state of Veracruz, Mexico. When we arrived to manage the operations, there was a fragile telecommunications infrastructure that did not support all operational services, which made it difficult to supervise officers in the field. With the inclusion of ZELLO, our operations have been exponentially streamlined since each officer has the application on his cell phone or tablet, receiving communications directly and without delay, giving a better response to citizens in the prevention and containment of crimes.
Pros
Its versatility and user-friendliness make it an application that, when used well, has become a powerful communications tool.
Cons
So far, all of its components are essential and well designed to achieve perfect harmony in use.

Pros
It has provided me with a very good cooperation with my colleagues in the fire department without wasting any time in our communication and we have an immediate response in matters of geographical location
Cons
The fact that you cannot have in the Live application the map where the cars are moving to give you directly the moment they attempt.. This is only done on the Website

We had part of our fleet using UHF radio. The rest of the country had nothing so we tested Zello out. Everyone loved it and we instantly realised that we could run despatch for the whole country from head office. We ripped out the UHF infrastructure and have never looked back.
Pros
So easy to deploy and train new users. On-boarding is complete. The technology works extremely well and can be customised to a large extent. We've even taken to using the API to integrate Zello into our own app.
Cons
Users expect it to work exactly like a radio. More of a comment about humans than Zello.

Meets the Needs and Then Some
Reviewed on 2023/05/22
Pros
The most significant benefit for us was the accessibility via the API. While the web management console is easy to use our deployment depends on custom integration services. The documented API is easy to use and the provided SDK's worked great.
Cons
Zello is driving a lot of advancements with their applications, but one area forgotten about is the dedicated radio support. We rely heavily on physical radios from Telo, and some features sometimes don't work or are hard to enable. While we provide feedback on what we would like to see, we have no visibility if there is any traction on the suggestions.

It's been excellent. I took over the role of administrating the product for our frontline team and it was quick to pick up and learn, and we try to use it wherever we can to facilitate quick communication between dispatch, receiving, drivers, and warehouse staff.
Pros
I love how simple it is to manage and deploy this product. My dispatch operators and drivers enjoy how simple it is to communicate between them. The features are plenty and Zello is constantly updating the feature set. Being able to rapidly spin up and down user accounts, creating magic QR codes for zero-touch login, and the integrations with third-party hardware make Zello a no-brainer for frontline PTT.
Cons
At times, the web portal can feel antiquated in a post-material design era, but there is beauty in simplicity. I'd much rather have a web product that works every time than one that has issues but looks pretty.

Pros
It is easy to use and deploy. Our drivers carry tablets, not cell phones this allows us to call them and communicate at a fraction of the cost. The recording feature is a great management tool.

First time I heard about Zello it was in a facebook page that gives road traffic informations. Then I started using it in my work with my team. Its very fast to transmit the audio message . Good notification system and what i liked most in the app is that it is like the police talkie walkie
Cons
I dont think this app have any probleme in using it but what i didnt like most is the theme because its limited and you can only change to dark mode
