MiVoice Office Application Suite (Mitel Application Suite) vs. Orum

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.

In general, our experience was not good at all, we had been here for two months. We were using Orum. They didn't get one qualified lead out of it, which may not be the actual product. It could just be us. In conclusion, we just fell like a number in a system, and that doesn't really go with our company's values,

• 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

• Our Customer Success Manager, Matt, is my best CSM across all of my sales tech stack.
• It does exactly what it's supposed to. We spend more time talking than we do dialing. Unreal.
• Nice Salesloft/Outreach/Salesforce integrations make it easy to use.

• 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.

• Calls get cut off more regularly than I would expect. I am not sure if that is an issue on Orum's end, but I don't think it is a network issue either so I am not sure why.
• In the search lists, it would be nice if we could add favorite cadences or separate by our own.

It's pretty easy to use and integrates with my other tools well. Only reason it isn't a 10 is because sometimes the pause auto dial option is a bit buggy and at some points the prospect can have difficulty hearing me on the other line. Overall though it's intuitive and easy to use

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.

I have not needed to interact with their support team yet, so I cannot give a valid response. So far, their tool is simple and straightforward to use.

Since Mitel is cloud based, the reliability is upwards of 99% and that is extremely important to us.

PhoneBurner is a good dialer as well and might be a better fit for a different use case, but as of my writing this review, they do not have a direct integration with Outreach. They allow a third-party (PieSync) to make certain "if-than" connections, but PhoneBurner didn't make it clear if there was a way to automatically log calls in Outreach. Plus PieSync brings its own monthly cost. Orum is a bit more expensive but well worth it for me.

• This provides the business with a way to manage phones and calls with screening capabilities.
• The reporting system has helped with looking into certain situations and why things were or weren't done.

• My personal ROI has been approximately a 100% increase in the number of calls I can make in a given amount of time, vs. calling directly from Outreach before (roughly 50 calls per hour to 100+). The increased potential for business is worth the cost of admission for me.
