Considered Both Products
FrontSpin
Chose FrontSpin
Works much better than Xant - I would avoid that one at all costs. Is easier to use than Groove and Outreach but does lack some of the more advanced features.
Chose FrontSpin
It is good for basic calling but it isn't made for email templates and setting up a cadence as Outreach does.

Outreach has a better format for seeing who has called what lead and being able to see who you have called that day.
Chose FrontSpin
Based purely on cost - the other two were more robust and did more, but we had a limited budget and FrontSpin more than covered our needs.
Chose FrontSpin
The cost of ConnectLeader far outweighed the benefits in our specific case and didn't have most of the functions of Frontspin.
Salesforce's and Hubspot's dialer aren't power dialers so you can't load a list and go. That is a HUGE benefit of FrontSpin.

Chose MiVoice 250 / Office Application Suite (discontinued)
Though not the same thing, we find that Zoom works well with our messaging needs. We use it to communicate quick information with the agents. It's a separate type of app so it's hard to compare the two but both are instrumental apps for our business and we will continue to use …
Chose MiVoice 250 / Office Application Suite (discontinued)
Since Mitel is cloud based, the reliability is upwards of 99% and that is extremely important to us.
Chose MiVoice 250 / Office Application Suite (discontinued)
Mitel was by the easiest to integrate and had the easiest and cleanest interface.

Chose MiVoice 250 / Office Application Suite (discontinued)
Mitel beat Cisco on price every time. Cisco seems to have more growth capacity for large enterprises, however Micollab / Mitel Applications Suite are easier to setup and use. I used and deployed both environments and both have their pros and cons, however end users seemed to …
Chose MiVoice 250 / Office Application Suite (discontinued)
In retrospect, Mitel was not the right solution for us but it has sufficed while we look for a replacement that integrates with our CRM. Skype for Business was being phased out, we were currently using RingCentral, and we anticipated the conversion back to ShoreTel (we had a …
Chose MiVoice 250 / Office Application Suite (discontinued)
MITEL offers an exceptional phone system that provides great services and support to your entire organization. Compared to the competition it stacks up pretty well as far as calling features. It has a robust traditional phone solution that offers comprehensive contact center …

Works extremely well for an SDR/BDR team whose main focus is outreach through phone calls. Less appropriate for organizations looking for email cadence or a Salesforce add-on to work within Salesforce.

Mitel helps us when our client care/customer service has detail phone calls with clients where we need to address their problems. Our company audits a report of voicemails to make sure we have checks and balances across the company. The system is so easy to use that there is not excuse for calls to be dropped.

Support Rating
They do well with their support. Wait times are low, and they are eager to help.

Great technical support. My only recommendation would be to have staffed support after hours. They have an after hours answering service and while the technicians always called back it would be good to reach support immediately 24/7. Technicians are very knowledgeable and helpful as is their sales staff. They also have great training to take.
