Now, let us look at scenarios and cases.

Which Telecalling Software is Right for you?

(A) When to go for - Cloud Telephony

  1. If you want a single virtual number for Incoming and Outgoing calls, you should go for cloud telephony. 
  2. Although cloud telephony is much more suitable for inbound calling. 
  3. Also, if you compulsorily need an IVR to manage inbound calls, then Cloud Telephony is preferable. 
  4. Cloud Telephony can provide you with Agent Efficiency reports to analyse your agent’s efficiency. 
  5. However, it can’t provide you with an agent’s Effectiveness Report. Because it doesn’t have a built-in CRM.

    From a Business Perspective, an effectiveness report is more important than an efficiency Report. 

(B) When to go for a mobile sim-based Telecalling Solution

  1. You should go for a Mobile Sim-Based Telecalling Solution – if a Business Analytics Report is more important.
  2. Mobile Sim-based Telecalling Solutions are very economical—almost 1/4th the cost of Cloud Telephony.
  3. As Incoming and outgoing calls happen from the same number, it avoids all confusion for prospects/Clients.
  4. You don’t get an IVR for Call Routing with a Mobile SIM-based telecalling Solution; calls are dialled from and received on the Agent’s phone directly, so an IVR is not even needed.
  5. You can’t do Voice Broadcasting with a Mobile Sim-Based Telecaller App.

    But here is a question: How often do you answer and listen to voice broadcast calls?

(C) When to go for - Call Centre CRM

  1. If you need the best of Cloud Telephony and mobile SIM-based telecaller Solution, you should choose Call Centre CRM.
  2. If you are more interested in knowing the outcomes of calls, you must go for Call Centre CRM.
  3. Does the lead get converted to sales after the call is made?
  4. Whether the ticket was resolved after the call was made?

    You don’t get such analysis with cloud telephony.

    The same report can be obtained from Mobile Sim – based telecaller app i.e. Samvad.
  5. Call Centre CRM also comes with IVR, so you can choose Call Centre CRM if you compulsorily need IVR.
  6. Calls from Call Centre CRM are not held from a Virtual Number. This is Call Centre CRM’s advantage over Cloud TELEPHONY.
  7. Virtual Numbers have a lower call-answering rate and are more likely to get spammed. 
  8. Call Centre CRMs that are premise-based usually have higher 1st-year installation costs due to the servers and software installed at your premises. 

    However, if you consider the long-run cost, Call Centre CRM is a more affordable solution than Cloud telephony.
