Aircall is used for all of our reps to make their calls as well as leveraged for call reviews due to call recordings.

Aircall has been a great learning tool for us outside of just making calls.

  • More and better call insights
  • Sound quality at times is inconstant
  • Calls dropped at times

Return on Investment

A reliable tool for outbound sales

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I’ve used Aircall for inbound and outbound sales calls. It allows me to call any country through an app on my phone at low cost.

Pros

  • Multinational calls
  • Multiple (country specific) phone numbers from one device
  • Phone calls when only internet signal is available

Cons

  • For outbound sales calls, it would be great to have an automatic dialler. I.e Submit a list of numbers to Aircall and it keeps dialling until someone picks up.
  • It would be great to be able to automatically leave a pre-recorded voicemail when dialling out.
  • Inbound calls occasionally don’t connect

Return on Investment

  • We had a 20% increase in outbound calls
