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.

Pros
PhoneBurner
  • 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.

  • This product gives me the liberty to very easily and freely navigate all things on my own, which does not require many skills to start working.
  • This product gives us the leverage of creating our own tailored and personalized templates for our teams in just a matter of minutes.
  • This program is so automated that it performs everything on its own from LinkedIn to email search, to even booking meetings.
  • I found the onboarding process pretty great and efficient. I am really happy with the overall customer support. They are some of the nicest people I have met who are there to willingly help me at any time of need and problem.
  • Their usability is also hands down very good. However, I find their user interface to be slightly less user-friendly, so there is some degree of scope in the improvement of their user intuitiveness and user-friendliness.

  • Syncing to other programs. You cannot interrelate Reply with other software in a simple way. Zapier is required and even then it’s not perfect.
  • Similar to syncing, there’s no way to export results of particular campaigns. This is awful. If I send out a campaign to a group, I’d like to export the results to enter into a CRM since I can’t sync the contacts. One of these features must be added ASAP.
  • Organization. While Reply itself is user-friendly, keeping campaigns and contacts and results organized is not. You cannot organize campaigns or file them away when they are done. Therefore you have to delete campaigns to stay organized and lose results, which you cannot even export.

Usability
PhoneBurner
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.

I generally receive a reply in no time at all and found not only the support org. but the sales team to be extremely helpful. Additionally I found a great onboarding process with plenty of resources to consume.

Alternatives Considered
PhoneBurner
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.

These tools are great, but they aren't built for what we use Reply for. Reply is perfect for doing these outbound campaigns at scale, whereas with ActiveCampaign and Vitally we were trying to turn the tools into something they are not.

Return on Investment
PhoneBurner
  • [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.
