Considered Both Products
Dialpad Connect
Chose Dialpad Connect
Dialpad Connect was much easier to set up (Twilio's regulatory bundle approvals are inconsistent-- the documents I sent them using our account were rejected, but were approved using the same documents when I applied for a phone number from Close CRM's Twilio integration).

Chose Dialpad Connect
I can't really tell you as I haven't tried a competitor, I'm not sure what others there really are. I guess it's better than Twilio but that's not an apples to apples comparison.
Chose Dialpad Connect
Vonage Business Communications, Nextiva, 8x8 Contact Center and GoTo Connect
Chose Dialpad Connect
For the smaller center, Dialpad is a good fit
Chose Dialpad Connect
My previous provider had bad call quality, calls would drop and my phone would randomly dial other numbers. All of these issues have been alleviated with Dialpad. It has been a great and useful service since I signed up.
Chose Dialpad Connect
I'd say Dialpad was similarly priced but had more features. OpenPhone was the best in terms of usability.
Chose Dialpad Connect
It's more user friendly and private, i don't receive any unrelated messages from outside our work organization.
Chose Dialpad Connect
Panterra is dependable and has good support. Dialpad Connect has more features and an easier interface. AT&T has a lot of features, but Dialpad Connect's interface is easier. AT&T does not do call transcription that I know of. Comcast BVE and 8x8 services are lower quality and …
Chose Dialpad Connect
Been many years, as i was in previous job. Travel agency that worked like a call center. But its been 5 years on Dialpad and it functions for us as a call center. But has better options
Chose Dialpad Connect
Dialpad checked all the boxes for us, from Integration capabilities to being a single pane of glass for both the admin and end user.

The other products were varied in what they offered vs what we were looking for. Some had features we liked, but didn't like the overall look or …
Chose Dialpad Connect
Dialpad Connect more than holds its own against its competitors. It's pricing and support are very good. Additionally it's free trial offer is instrumental in demonstratingto a customer it's ability to pay for itself without concerning potential new clients with immediate and …
Chose Dialpad Connect
Zoom is a popular option, but not that easy to set up - not even close compared to Dialpad Ai Meetings!
Chose Dialpad Connect
Company decided on a service that was more inclusive then just using Zoom or something similar. Also we have had some bad experiences with Ring Central
Chose Dialpad Connect
More expensive, but way more functional
Chose Dialpad Connect
We canceled Slack for our internal communication and meetings
Chose Dialpad Connect
Dialpad Connect is very helpful for everyone. After switching to Orum, I feel that Orum better fits our business needs as it can serve as both a power and parallel dialer. The best part is the live coaching feature, where I can listen in on any calls in real-time to coach my …
Chose Dialpad Connect
Other products we looked at did not work with our customized Salesforce environment.
Chose Dialpad Connect
As mentioned before, features are inituitive on DialPad and easy to use. Sound quality, scheduling and other features available are as expected.
Chose Dialpad Connect
Neither Zoom nor Teams automatically send your conference recordings to the chair or organizer; you have to go in and download them. Zoom/Teams will notify when the meeting is about to start; however I have never been contacted by the system or auto-connected to the meeting by …
Chose Dialpad Connect
Dialpad is designed with a mobile-first approach, making it a strong choice for teams that need to manage calls, messages, and meetings on the go. Dialpad may be better than Zoom for businesses that need a comprehensive communication platform with a strong emphasis on voice …
MiVoice Office Application Suite
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
Though not the same thing, we find that Zoom works well with our messaging needs. We use it to communicate quick information with the agents. It's a separate type of app so it's hard to compare the two but both are instrumental apps for our business and we will continue to use …
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
Since Mitel is cloud based, the reliability is upwards of 99% and that is extremely important to us.
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
Mitel was by the easiest to integrate and had the easiest and cleanest interface.
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
I have not evaluated another phone system.
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
Mitel beat Cisco on price every time. Cisco seems to have more growth capacity for large enterprises, however Micollab / Mitel Applications Suite are easier to setup and use. I used and deployed both environments and both have their pros and cons, however end users seemed to …
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
In retrospect, Mitel was not the right solution for us but it has sufficed while we look for a replacement that integrates with our CRM. Skype for Business was being phased out, we were currently using RingCentral, and we anticipated the conversion back to ShoreTel (we had a …
Chose MiVoice Office Application Suite
MITEL offers an exceptional phone system that provides great services and support to your entire organization. Compared to the competition it stacks up pretty well as far as calling features. It has a robust traditional phone solution that offers comprehensive contact center …

Likelihood to Recommend
It is well-suited for basic calling functionality, but has been a poor experience for us when used for texting, as it lacks some of the features of other platforms, such as Haymarket. It is also challenging to capture good analytics, as this is neither easy nor clear for users to find.

Mitel helps us when our client care/customer service has detail phone calls with clients where we need to address their problems. Our company audits a report of voicemails to make sure we have checks and balances across the company. The system is so easy to use that there is not excuse for calls to be dropped.

Pros
  • I can make calls through the app & the caller ID shows my office line - I can toggle between the main business line and my direct line.
  • It keeps all of my voicemails & transcriptions in one place.
  • The desktop login allows me to access everything as well.

  • Enabling users to load their profile to an unassigned desk phone, which is useful for switching work locations
  • Transcribing voicemails and forwarding the transcription to the user's email
  • Ability to configure scheduled holidays and company events into the automated answering service workflow

Cons
  • The previous call window was way better to see full screen.
  • Having the call options down below makes it uncomfortable and users need to take more steps to do thing that used to take just a click or 2.
  • I would like to adjust the left side menu a little more

  • Mitel Connect Client at times does not sync to Outlook in a timely fashion.
  • Added features such as share screen and file attachments would be helpful.

As of now, the way this system allows us to call each other, text each other (inner office) as well as communicate with customers while being fully integrated with our CRM (Service Titan) has made everything so much easier for everyone. Thus far, I am super thrilled with the ease of use, integration and all the reasons we chose Dialpad Talk are working great

Usability
Dialpad Connect is good and recommended for any organization. It is a good value. It can accomplish everything that your organization is looking for, and no one will say it is outside the budget for any 50+ person organization. The AI feature is very useful. The dashboard could be a bit easier to manage, and the integration with Salesforce could be a bit smoother.

Reliability and Availability
There have not been any outages that I am aware of and we have had consistently good coverage since the start. There can be a slight lag from the office to the mobile app, but it is not terribly noticeable and it has not resulted in any calls being prematurely hung up

Performance
The emails of voice transcription come very quickly after a call has been completed and except for a few fairly difficult names are pretty accurate. The ability to quickly listen to the voicemail from email without having to open the app is also a bonus. I have not noticed or heard of any slowdowns

Support Rating
  1. Dialpad Onboarding support was okay. I think this was because we used a 3rd party vendor. We had a lot of issues with provisioning the phones.
  2. The Dialpad sales rep forgot to mention that Dialpad is only compatible with Polycom desk phones so we bad to purchase new phones last minute.
  3. We were supposed to get 3 months free when we signed up with Dialpad as a courtesy but the charged us for the 3rd month. They have resolved this error but I think there was no designated point of contact on Dialpad's end to help things move more smoothly.

Great technical support. My only recommendation would be to have staffed support after hours. They have an after hours answering service and while the technicians always called back it would be good to reach support immediately 24/7. Technicians are very knowledgeable and helpful as is their sales staff. They also have great training to take.

So far, Dialpad has been a great improvement for our organization. It allows everyone to be on the same service and the integration with the mobile app means everyone is still using the "office" numbers even when on the go which makes it easier not having to balance multiple phone numbers from people
