New agents are given Balto and are able to take calls successfully from day one. They take incoming calls and Balto listens to both sides of the conversation and when things are said it will prompt the agent to move forward in different ways. It also will prompt if agents are speaking too much or if the agent isn't listening and asking the same question it will prompt them.

Invoca
Management of campaigns is easy with it. It is a great tool if someone [wants to know] which of his campaigns is doing well and getting the most calls. It is quite favorable for all kinds of marketing campaigns and tracking calls is also convenient with Invoca. We are having a wonderful experience of call tracking with Invoca and its functioning and efficiency are beyond our expectations.

Pros
Balto Software
  • Lights up to let us know we are following the script.
  • Makes sure we are asking and gathering all the correct questions.
  • I like that we get confetti at the end to tell us we have done a good job.

Invoca
  • From an accounting perspective, Invoca makes it easy for us to determine where our call revenue is coming from and what call type generated the paid call.
  • Their dashboard is very user-friendly. I like how you can see everything from the top level and see total call volume, commission paid, and conversion rate. But you can easily drill down into each campaign level too.
  • Lastly, you can easily create call campaigns and create individual phone numbers. I especially like how we're able to create a ring pool that allows us to track exactly where the call is coming from, and it's not difficult to setup.

Invoca
  • Learning Invoca can be a bit of a challenge, as many items are hidden in various views.
  • It does lack the ability to speak with 3rd party software with Zapier
  • In certain ways, too much functionality for basic campaign setup.
  • They do not try to take a business development role with their users to help them grow their business.

Invoca
Invoca's client success team is great to work with, which is a nice value proposition for their business (many SaaS providers struggle with this). Their support team is very talented and fully capable of addressing the vast majority of questions that they receive. I haven't encountered any negative experiences when requesting assistance.

Invoca
Invoca is very user-friendly. It was easy to learn how to navigate and has a very user-friendly interface. It's hard to compare it against SaaS solutions like Five9 because their functions are different. Originally we selected Invoca because we were unaware of any SaaS solutions that accommodated all types of campaigns. We've found that now in LeadsPedia, but have still found that many partners prefer going through Invoca, so we still use it. It's an excellent platform for partners to access.

  • It is really useful to set a price you will pay for inbound calls, and let Invoca manage that tracking system.
  • We were able to run campaigns that could not have run otherwise because we had the call tracking for those calls.
