Kixie vs. PhoneBurner

Suited if you want to hear old calls. Not suited for teaching new SDR's how to talk or what a good call is and why. Kixie doesn't transcribe either.

I like that you can dial out so many leads and double the efficiency of the agent. The only thing that bothers me is sometimes, system down issue.

• Kixie integrates seamlessly with our CRM (Zoho), meaning it updates call notes directly on the customer's CRM profile.
• The one-click dialing feature directly through our CRM is a great feature. It's so simple; just search for a name, one-click, and you are on the phone.
• The local presence feature is a nice touch for cold calls. It provides a local area code when cold calling to increase the likelihood of an answer to the call.

• PhoneBurner connects to Hubspot so that my team doesn't have to go back and forth.
• The amount of time it takes to get through a list of calls has almost been cut in half.
• The opportunity to do leave a voicemail without having to leave it on each call is a huge time saver.

• "Power Dialer" doesn't work all the time.
• Only records; doesn't give any type of analysis.
• Getting your account set up correctly can be confusing.

• Could be a little better on the pricing.
• Could offer a better central administrative function.
• Could provide more updates to the app.

PhoneBurner as I said before, has an excellent graphical interface, super friendly, with menus that the user can easily find and program the calls. The layout is good, fast, and has little delay and errors. I really like the tool and from the beginning, I had no difficulty with the usability.

Every interaction I have had with any member of their support team has been pleasant. Issues are quickly addressed and their response time is excellent through the chat service.

Kixie integrated much better with our CRM (Zoho) than CrazyCall. In addition, Kixie had increased reporting features that CrazyCall did not offer--CrazyCall's reporting was limited and not detailed enough for our purposes. Lastly, at the time, CrazyCall did not have the inbound call services that Kixie offered. In fact, CrazyCall did not have any inbound services when we were using the software.

We selected PhoneBurner because it is very easy to integrate with Zoho CRM and if you have a silver plan, you can do a lot such as Sending SMS and unlimited calling, you can also record and drop voicemail, timezone calling is automatic. It is a good dialer to use if you are part of sales.

Incentivized

• Negative- the "Power Dialer" doesn't load
• Negative- missed calls because not loading correctly
• Positive- can call anyone with a click of a button

• [I believe] it has cost me a fortune in wasted time trying to make the Hubspot integration [work] (to no avail).
• [I believe] if the Hubspot integration actually worked, we would probably get decent ROI from the speedier calling.
