Likelihood to Recommend Aircall is a great fit for any SaaS organization for sales and support groups. Since I come from sales, I cannot talk about support, but for the sales team, it's a great help. It's intuitive and user-friendly. No need for formal training as it's very easy to access all the features you need. I particularly like the option of taking calls on my mobile phone while I am away from my desk or traveling, and also how I can easily manage my working hours and schedule. I also like its ability to interact with different CRMs and other useful tools like
Slack , etc.
Read full review We use Nextiva every day in our company. I like how we have a lot of different customizable options. You can use Nextiva in several different ways. There are also several different ways to use/manage Nextiva, with their Mobile App, Desktop App, and from a browser. Their support is reachable via phone, chat, or email. Nextiva makes integrating with other platforms and implementing new features or functions easy. Just a heads up, depending on how you use Nextiva daily, the backend setup for call centers can be a little tricky.
Read full review Pros Aircall's integration with HubSpot is fantastic. I can call from anywhere in HubSpot and know that my call is logged automatically. During my call, I have easy access to a contact's record and can pull up any information I need in just the click of a button. The only limit I've found is that it doesn't (yet?) auto-log to tickets. This seems to be pretty common among other integrations so it wasn't seen as a con in our buying decision. I really like the Aircall dashboard and being able to customize who has access to what number. We even have the ability to give outbound calling privileges only to certain team members. It's also great that you can set up each individual number's answer tree to ring to the correct person. There's a lot of cool features that don't make sense for our particular business, but I think Aircall's metric tracking and coaching abilities would be really useful for a lot of teams. I remember in my first call hearing about a feature where a manager can listen in and "whisper" tips to a rep during a call that only the rep would be able to hear. I can see how this would add value in a coaching situation. Read full review Nextiva allows you to set up the Contact Center to fit your exact needs. The Contact Center has a consistency of quality. Dropped calls or interrupted calls are very rare. The voice quality is always great on both ends. The Contact Center allows us to have a Call Center with 50+ numbers to assist our customers attendees. At the same time, it allows us to have a main line for our Customer Support, Sales, etc... Read full review Cons No schedule for bank holidays No feature to update more than one phone line at the same time Admins don't have access to the timeline of a call to see with which agent it rang Missing agent-specific stats when your phone lines are organized in teams If calls are setup to ring to a first group and then a second, if the whole first group is already busy, it does not go to the second group but puts the customer on hold Read full review I'd like to be able block numbers globally through the web portal rather than having it done through tech support. Mobile app sometimes continues to ring even though the call has been picked up via the desktop app or physical phone.

Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review They are very nice, friendly and you can really feel their willingness to help. They are proactive in finding out potential issue and they sometimes extend their service by calling me and making sure I'm still happy with the service. They have Live Chat support, email, and hotline that you can use to connect to them.
Read full review Alternatives Considered We used to answer phone calls on our fix line when at the office. The quality was very bad but we had in mind that a VOIP solution would be too expensive. When lockdown began last year, I had to redirect calls on my own mobile phone which was not efficient. Also I couldn't receive voicemails, have a history of calls or choose working hours.
Read full review It isn't just about clear calls- which they have in spades. The features on this platform are like little productivity cheerleaders. We can track calls, analyze performance, and even set up call routing so the right seller gets the right lead
Read full review Return on Investment 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 Read full review With Nextiva VoIP Call Center, we don't need receptionist on call all the time... that is good we receive a lot of complains of people calling and no one answering, but when we check the call history there is no trail of the incoming call... that is bad...
