Chose Exotel
Exotel was selected by us because of the following reasons:

They are well suited in start up in the Central Asia market, would recommend them for that area. We would also recommend their Voice over internet protocol services for mainland as well. Either the text or VOIP was a good service. The experience overall was great with them. Highly recommended.

Usability

For cold calling and outbound callings, to a certain extend Exotel serves the purpose as mutliple DID numbers are available at our fingertips. For company which use outcalling as a form of passing information to users can benefit from the flexibility it provides. They have a recharge and use model which doesnt have certain expiry. Basic API documentation available and lesser support from their support team on this matter makes it difficult to check if the API thows any error

Initially they had chat support which was available faster. But now the chat support gets routed to a virtual agent and unable to get in touch with an actual agent. They also have no support with respect to the API's and other integrations.
