    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.

    Lightspeed web filtering using the Chromebook Relay agent is amazing and does a great job for a cloud filtering solution. The reports that are available are great and can be customized and retains data for 90 days. Reports are easily shared with staff and/or parents for transparency and disciplinary reasons. The agent for Lightspeed (Relay) does not work well with OSX and works okay in Windows, but doesn't allow you to access local IP addresses in the web browser. There needs to be a way to bypass filtering for local network access. This can make it unusable in some cases.

    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.

    • It sometimes takes longer than expected for new filtering rules to apply.
    • Sometimes a site is blocked due to sub-sites or links, but it does not easily identify the source of the block if it is buried in the site.
    • They have several reports included, but it would be nice to create custom reports.

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

    It is unreliable and does not function as it is supposed to do so. As previously mentioned, there is a glitch when creating a block list.

    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.

    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.

    We were already a [Lightspeed] customer so the transition was seamless to Relay. Their support and team at [Lightspeed] are top-notch. We have been with Lightspeed for over 20 years and have evaluated on occasions other options and [ended] up back with [Lightspeed] each time. Their price point, ease of use, great team of engineers, and overall customer focus keep them on top in my eyes.
