Inside Sales PowerDialer

Pros

  • PowerDialer allows us to call with local area codes.
  • PowerDialer allows us to use customer phone numbers to call people.
  • PowerDialer allows reps to automatically pull leads into their name to keep calling leads.

Cons

  • It is a little expensive.
  • Reps can keep clicking next record to cherry pick the good leads.

Return on Investment

  • It allows us to call hot leads which translate into millions of dollars for our company. Without a way to call route and call these leads we would be missing out.

PowerDialer Review

Pros

  • Ease of use
  • Speed and efficiency for reps to reach out to leads in pipeline and maintain opportunities
  • Local presence helps to get in contact with prospects in different locations

Cons

  • The messiness of duplicate accounts
  • Notes - in the box where you can leave notes on a lead page, I wished many times that there was a "edit text" box with the Bold/Italic/Underline options as well as Left/Center/Right positioning
  • The call system can be a bit buggy sometimes. Either the line ends up being garbled or it fails to dial, fails to record

Return on Investment

  • InsideSales.com PowerDialer has helped us to be more efficient at our organization which in conclusion means more opportunities are passed and revenue generated.
