    DialogTech
    DialogTech is well suited for franchise business models for both the franchisor and franchisee. For the franchisor, we have great insight into all of the calls that are happening for all locations. We can see what channels are driving the most high-quality calls and where we are seeing areas of opportunity. We utilize this data to coach our franchisees and digital agencies on where to spend more digital dollars and where to pull back from.

    We use KickServ for nearly every aspect of our operation and cannot think of a scenario when it is "inappropriate" or "less appropriate". It is the backbone of our operation and is used for everything from data gathering to estimates to invoices to payments and accounts receivables to reports to tracking to storage of photos and past invoices. Better searching abilities would be good instead of having to create tags for things we don't know we are going to need later.

    • Organization - keeps everything organized nicely and has several different filters that you can use to view only the information you need.
    • Simple website - this was important because you want it to load quickly when you are in the office and on the road.
    • Database - keeps track of the things that you enter. This is nice when trying to get information on a product or a price when requested by the customer.

    Cons
    DialogTech
    • Improving the reporting to include graphic displays/data visualization natively rather than exporting to Excel.
    • Customize call length reporting and filtering. Options now are <1 minute, 1-5 minutes, etc. But < 2 minutes is a better option because it takes a minute just to get through prompts and listen to a voicemail greeting.

    • Integration with email marketing
    • Advanced searching capabilities (i.e. If I wanted to search for every job I did that had the words "water damage" in their descriptions).
    • More ability to customize templates (like adding additional artwork, pictures)

    The only reason we would not use IfByPhone again is if our resellers do not need another IVR Solution.

    It is intuitive enough, but there is some training that will be necessary because of a perceived redundancy within their workflow. It can be hard to distinguish which stage a customer is in (thus what the most important thing to be working on, if you are in sales, for instance) without some training.

    DialogTech
    They were typically easy to deal with, and solved our issues quickly, especially later in our use time. In the beginning, it was sometimes difficult to get a fast resolution because the nature of our problems resided in partnerships that they had with vendors for telecom routes.

    Very good technical help. The team is well-versed in their product and what to look for, particularly when interacting with other software platforms. You nearly always get a live person when you call, and if you don't, they will return your call promptly. This is another factor in my client's decision to move forward with their solution.

    DialogTech has more pricing options. The onboarding process flows very smoothly and professionally. Their interface is very user-friendly and they offer continuous support via their communication channel and resources provided. The setup is very easy and fast to get going with. I am very content with their current solutions overall.

    Easier to use than Salesforce. More robust than Zoho. More functionality that is easier to learn than both.

    Return on Investment
    DialogTech
    • Overall they offer a good service at a fair price
    • Their reverse look-up fees are to high limiting the amount of call data collected

    • We are essentially paper free. No paper work orders.
    • We've been able to avoid a layer of middle management by supplementing this layer with technology. KickServ is a part of that layer.
    • Negatively speaking, like all technology, it has created a void of human level connection. Because we know that we can deliver work orders to our foremen remotely, we are less likely to drive up to the shop and shake a hand or see someone face to face. We had to learn that lesson the hard way, that both technology and human connection are necessary to maintain our culture.
