Likelihood to Recommend If you need to find a test candidate for your client quickly, this is one of the best ways. Pull yourself a hot list of a couple hundred potential candidates and load them in to CallFire. Then get ready to hit about 50-60 calls per hour. You should have a great test candidate for your client in about 24 hours! It's amazing how quickly you can show your clients the true speed of your company.
Read full review The audio is very clear, but when the two devices are close, there is considerable noise. Also the calling is quite expensive considering that there are countless free tools available which provide the same features. Call recording is an add on so there you need to think about whether it's worth purchasing or not. Also that it can be used on multiple devices with the app makes things easier. For small scale corporates and teams it's all good, but with respect to its competitors bringing so much on plate and that too for free, I rate it 6/10.
Read full review Pros CallFire provides detailed analytics that show what/when callers select within the phone system The text message broadcast feature is a game changer. This allows a company to dispatch text campaigns with specific calls-to-action, with tracking analytics. The voice broadcast feature allows a mass automated message to be sent to client phones. This saves a lot of time when the same notification needs to go out to multiple clients.

So that's something which is very appreciated by customer because they don't have to buy each server like it was the case. They just buy WebEx calling and they have many features. Even if they don't need it, they have it and we can give them the notice to use them and they can use it and they are very happy with this software. Read full review Cons The services are easy to use and robust, but there is room for improvement. Unfortunately, not much has changed over the last 2 years of use. There haven't been any new features or innovations in that time. API integration and automation is not easy for most folks to jump into and there is very little technical support or documentation to take advantage of such features. The standard reports are generally sufficient, but there isn't any customization or intelligence available. Read full review It might be that we didn't have this package, but transcription capabilities were not included. Sometimes, using Webex Calling would make my computer and other programs run slow If screens were being shared, it required a lot of bandwidth and sometimes froze or glitched.

Read full review Usability It is a very easy product to deploy and configure and to really take advantage of. It does not matter if you are using it in an office or your home, or for a security office or a collaboration meeting room - you have the right endpoint available for each case and the configuration parameters to improve the functionality you need.
Read full review Support Rating I have been working for a long time with Cisco as a provider and also Cisco TAC and Cisco Support Engineers. The support starts right beforehand in the documentation of the product you are interested in. From the start you have a good, complete, and detailed and easy to read datasheet and there's always someone available to answer any questions.
Read full review Alternatives Considered CallFire has a pricing structure that is attractive to us as a small business. The "pay as you use" options helps us keep our overhead low, especially with so many softwares already in our tech stack. It's a tremendous value for the cost!
Read full review The differences between both software can be marginal in some aspects,
but for the campaign in a proffessional level it was a clear win to
Webex due the quality and security of the platform, being a Cisco
product has more impact on the final decision, and in the end the
overall experience has been great, having used
Twilio in the past, that
last part is my personal opinion.
Read full review Return on Investment I sent out a broadcast message pretty deep in our data base, well three years out. I had one customer come in and buy thanking me for contacting her. Our holiday season was up 35% over last year, this year we used CallFire more than we did in the past. Read full review I don't make decisions on ROI, but Webex Calling is used quite widely in the organization. The ease of calling definitely makes it easy to coordinate across teams and geographies. Good performance in low bandwidth situations means that employees with lower bandwidths don't necessarily need to upgrade internet speeds to have video calling.
