If you are looking for a strong product that is highly customizable, Onebox is a great choice. It can be difficult to navigate, but almost every feature you would need is included somewhere.

Exotel is well suited for: - Small and mid-sized Internet based businesses where it is necessary for them to have a very strong customer support team working round the clock and in different shifts. - Company making large number of calls and sending mass SMS's. They can do that on a single cloud based platform. Exotel might not be a good fit if: -it is not a call intensive business that you want to cater to. Though the setup cost is very low but it follows economies of scale i.e. more the number of calls, less will be per call cost.

Cons
Ziff Davis Inc
  • The scheduling is very granular, but the interface for setting up the schedule isn't the easiest to navigate.
  • I would like the ability to copy or clone schedules. We have 3 different schedules on three different hunt groups and when there are changes to be made, I would like to be able to make the change on one schedule and copy that for another hunt group.
  • The interface for the users to change some of their settings (password, phone, email, etc) isn't very user friendly. I usually have to walk users through changes, and at that point, it is easier for me to just make the changes myself.

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.

I was not an employee when Onebox was selected, but I have used Avaya and Nortel PBXs in the past and while it is not as powerful, it has a lot of great features and a much lower cost of entry.

Exotel was selected by us because of the following reasons: -Low set-up and maintenance cost as compared to its peers. -Prompt customer service: You want to upgrade your plan or facing any issues around the platform, Exotel team is just a call away. -Call recording Quality was also better than the peers.
