Considered Both Products
CloudTalk
Chose CloudTalk
We were recommended CloudTalk basically from everybody in our network so we reached out directly to them at first and since they had everything we were looking for, feature-wise, and also were in our budget, we didn't really consider other vendors on the market. The …
Chose CloudTalk
There were several services suitable for our needs. CloudTalk was chosen because of its simplicity, complexity, and brief time needed to use this service. No broad technical knowledge is required to start and operate CloudTalk.
Chose CloudTalk
Better value for the money (by far). And besides that, all the features we needed, CloudTalk has them. Shoutout to their support for answering all the questions we had and to their CSM team for giving us a quick demo on the same day when we requested it. Recommended solution!
Chose CloudTalk
Cloudtalk is well-priced for what we need from it. The fact that it has many features that we plan to use in the future is a deciding factor, and that gives it a big advantage. So the biggest impact was the comprehensiveness of the solution and the integration with the CRM.
Chose CloudTalk
We tried dealing with Aircall, but their solution didn't seem so flexible and the initial adoption cost was way out of our context. We learned later that the solution was in fact more flexible than we thought, but were disappointed by the little quality of their before-sales …
Chose CloudTalk
So much better, much cleaner design. Much less complicated setup process. Has a much more up-to-date program. You can use the browser version or the stand-alone app, both are far more fleshed-out pieces of software. It is also much more reliable, haven't had the app crash even …
Chose CloudTalk
CloudTalk is a lot more intuitive and provides more features and analytics than 3CX. The fact it allows for integration as well means we can stay on top of all of our missed calls and know exactly what client rang linking them to their company account.
Chose CloudTalk
RingCentral has major issues syncing in real-time. The Web app and the desktop app never showed the same numbers. Often I'd have to wait hours for reports to update and then still had no confidence in the information presented.
Chose CloudTalk
CloudTalk is significantly more affordable, easy to setup and the trial month was very helpful to ensure it was what we needed. AirCall can probably do a lot more but I cannot tell you what and I don't believe we need more as we are not a complex business that needs multiple …
Chose CloudTalk
The pricing is more interesting and the fact they have a product easy to use with integrations with both our Sales and Support CRM's made us chose them. We were also told that a lot of the features we needed would be implemented in the soon future so let's see if it happens.
Chose CloudTalk
I have been using WhatsApp quite often for private and sometimes professional usage and in the past Skype and ICQ. WhatsApp is for free but I would say that CloudTalk provides a higher quality while talking so if I should choose between them for messages is WhatsApp very easy …
Chose CloudTalk
The first thing is cost. CloudTalk was a lot cheaper than others. The other thing I noticed is that there were a lot of unwanted or unnecessary features with the other ones that didn't really matter to us, but were more [than] able to ask a higher price per seat. However, the …
Chose CloudTalk
We used local VOIP provider, but it was slow, manual-based and expensive solution.
Chose CloudTalk
It was a gamble if I'm being honest, plus this is a very nuanced and intricate topic. We didn't necessarily substitute one for the other, it was a much needed state of affairs where we needed the call monitoring and agent tracking pros of CloudTalk more so than ever before.
Chose CloudTalk
The integration of CloudTalk with Pipedrive makes the native Pipedrive call system practically unnecessary. The latter does not allow searching for calls or generating indicators as well achieved as in CloudTalk.

Chose CloudTalk
Before CloudTalk, we used Pipedrive. It also works really well, but it does not have the option of analytics. You could not check things like how many calls were made during the day or a specific time period. That, for me, is the most valuable feature of CloudTalk--all the data …
Chose CloudTalk
It's the perfect complement to the other services we use as it permits us to get in contact with our clients in order to not only have good communication inside of the company but also outside the company with our clients. It really rounds up the whole package. It's just the …
Chose CloudTalk
CloudTalk service is immediately available once a profile is created and payment is made. Five9 indicated it would take up to 2 weeks to have full access to the service.
Chose CloudTalk
Though it was not my decision from switching from Circleloop, when we had originally used CircleLoop it gave some issues with internal transfer and taking calls which heavily affected us. With CloudTalk we can now successfully make outbound calls without any problems.
Chose CloudTalk
CloudTalk has a better value for the money spent and has been easier to set up than other peers in that regards as well as better overall integration with already existing Software that we have been using for years in our company. At the end, the communication with CloudTalk …
Chose CloudTalk
CloudTalk is much more configurable. It is very easy to send proactive SMS messages with CloudTalk whilst with Zendesk Talk this can only be done through a workaround. Zendesk does not provide Chinese virtual numbers either and outbound calls were not working to Chinese numbers …
Readymode
Chose Readymode
I think it stacks up very well to UJET. The systems are different and have many different features but it's been a great experience trying to use both. I feel like having all the access in one area is very helpful in this program.
Chose Readymode
Aircall provides chat, phone, and email support in less than an hour if the chat agent is unable to help you he will book you a call with a technician who will do the zoom meeting with you and solve the issue then and there. They will ask for the screen control and take care of …
Chose Readymode
MojoDialer is very easy to use and you can get started with little to no instruction. My cold caller is in the Philippines and it's easier for her to use and track prospects. The whole design of Mojo makes more sense, it's simple, easy to map contacts to predefined fields and …
Chose Readymode
Vici dial - This was only a calling software and it stored notes, it did not have the exclusive reporting XenCALL has.

Likelihood to Recommend
Cloudtalk is by far the best value-for-price software out there for call center solutions. Packed with features, very accessible, kind and accessible customer support, and cheap, especially when compared with their competitors for the same range of features. Easy entry-level software, especially if you're a startup that doesn't want to make big initial commitments but needs a solution that scales with the business.

XenCall is well suited for any company looking to make outbound calls to prospects more efficiently and effectively. It might not be appropriate for calls where you want to have a more quality conversation unless you stick with the 1 line dialer. Using multiple lines allows companies to hit many prospects in one day.

They are skilled, experienced, and anytime I need something and contact the support time, I get the right person who understands my needs and reacts to them accordingly. So far I was only pleasantly surprised by the level of support these guys provide and coming from a customer service oriented background myself, I can only say keep it up guys, you are doing a fantastic job!
