Aircall vs. Atos Unify OpenScape Voice

Aircall is great for anyone who has multiple team members calling from the same number or a team that needs to call from many different numbers. The way Aircall allows users to organize people and numbers is extremely customizable and efficient. I think just about any business could benefit from using Aircall and highly recommend it!

We have used 3rd party companies who have set up Unify for our customer sites and often it goes well. From a network perspective we often don't need to get involved too much and the set ups are often straight forward. This prevents us having to allocate engineers to new implementations.

• Make representatives aware of connection, time zone, environment. Having a sense of the customers location will help us to assist the customer
• Aircall always asks the quality of your call to be able to provide feedback on connection or issues with the app.

I give this rating as aircall is very easy to use but also lacks a parallel dialing feature which makes it slower to use. aircall has a pretty seamless integration with salesforce which is helpful. For the cost it is definitely very reasonable but it also lacks a live coaching/listening feature which is very valuable as a manager.

I provide this rating based on my overall experience using Aircall. I have used it on my previous company as well and that being said, it is a proof that Aircall is a great tool to use in contact centers and with B2B businesses that has direct communication with clients.

Clients seem to understand new feature sets early on and we don't have to allocate too much time to training. This creates a low learning curve across the board which can be essential when implementing new communication methods. The call quality and application support is generally very good and we don't have many calls logged for issues.

We've enjoyed using Aircall so far and have had no issues with it. The platform is easy to use, looks nice, and makes it easy to keep track of everything.

I am not the right person to answer this because I don't make the purchase decisions within our company. I have worked with several companies, and every one of them has their tools. I particularly liked Aircall among all of them because of the different reasons I have already mentioned before.

As we predominantly have a cisco environment we have used Cisco VOIP solutions in the past, which obviously integrate very well, however Unify does an excellent job at integrating into our networks with out problems and doesn't require too much manual configuring or changes.

• Because of the lack of local partnerships with South African telecoms companies, calls to South Africa is very expensive. This was not originally apparent when opening the Aircall account.
• Not having the option to display a local South African number in the CLIP, means that people are not always eager to pick up the phone when they see an overseas number ringing.
• The only positive impact has been the collaborative experience and being able to maintain a virtual office

• Ease of use gives clients peace of mind
• Easily customisable
• Administratively very convenient
