Chose CallRail
We haven't used any other type of system that is equivalent to CallRail. For some of our campaigns, we utilize CallSource, but CallSource falls flat in the keyword and landing page data. We are only able to get call recordings from them, and while that is useful, we can't …
Chose CallRail
Callrail has a very seamless and easy to use Dynamic Number Swap function. In other call tracking that we looked into the integration was either not as easy to use or required much more work to implement. Setting up CallRail has been so easy even our entry-level employees need …

CallRail
This is great software for differentiating where phone traffic is coming from. Whether it's paid/organic search, you can see exactly where the calls are coming in from. I'd love to see them add text/SMS features in the future, but it does what it claims. I'd also like to see more CRM integrations, but not sure that other users share the same sentiment

CallSource was great at seeing where we were failing as a company on the phone calls. It allowed us to tighten up a few spots to close those gaps and increase our call performance.

Pros
CallRail
  • Tracking phone calls first & foremost! Being able to have a running tally of the phone calls made and listening to the recorded calls throughout the month and providing that information back to our clients is vital!
  • Their UI is exceptionally easy to use & navigate. This is important when we have many clients running at the same time and we are able to always determine what report is for which client.
  • The ease of setting up a brand new client & their tracking phone number is fantastic! Saves a lot of time when it walks you through everything you need to know & do step by step.

  • The reporting is easy to access and use with little to no training. Pretty straightforward.
  • It does what it's supposed to -- creates usable tracking numbers, with added features like call whisper and call notifications that can be sent to a number of email addresses.
  • It can be integrated with our CRM, Salesforce, for ease of use!

Cons
CallRail
  • The integration with Hubspot is not as seemless as I would have liked. We had an issue where a person who was already in Hubspot called in, and their contact information was not matched to the caller ID correctly which created some duplicate entries. A little bit of a bummer, but from what I understand they may have fixed this. We had to stop using them for a little while because our outsourced sales team was more confused by adding CallRail, so we'll be re-implementing this once our new sales team is fully trained. Hopefully the record miss-match issue gets fixed.

  • Phone Call Recording: The only place where I would like to see improvement is the number of calls that you can listen to. Calls are kept in their database for 30 days, and while they do give the option to download the calls I would prefer to be able to login and pull past calls as needed. Past calls, months down the road can be important to clients so they can compare the strength of their sales teams and see where improvement is needed. It lets you monitor overall campaign effectiveness, and if Callsource added this feature then they'd be unbeatable.

Usability
CallRail
The platform is easy to use and we really don't have any complaints with using it so far. The information is invaluable for clients that rely on phone calls to drive more business. Not much negative to say about it at this point. We're actually really happy with it so far and the cost is manageable.

Support Rating
CallRail
CallRail support normally gets back to us pretty quickly when we submit a ticket and they have a good knowledge base for common questions. I've heard mixed reviews from other local marketing agencies that use this tool, but overall in my experience, support has been knowledgeable and quick working through our problems.
