  • Outbound calling for Sales/Support
  • Call routing to Agent Mobiles
  • Inbuild Inbound flow designer

Cons

  • Better Inbound IVR flow designer
  • Better and Faster Customer Support
  • Better Support for APIs

If the use case for colleague is mostly outbound with less followups or random cold calling, then Exotel would work pretty well but if the purpose is for a complete call center solutions, In my opinion, Exotel lacks in many things. Even proper reporting and dashboards.

Exotel- The Cloud calling Platform your company need!

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Exotel is basically used by our SDR (Sales Development Representative) and Customer Support Team in my company for making and receiving calls from our prospective buyers or customers looking for support. It basically provides us a common single cloud platform through which we can make calls at reasonable call rates. It also records every call made through the platform which in turn helps us in checking the quality and look after the training needs of our calling team. It also helps our customers and leads by easily and instantaneously connecting with our team to address their concerns.

Pros

  • Affordable Solution: First and foremost the platform is very much affordable for a small start-up starting their business and want to connect with their leads and serve their clients economically.
  • Easy to Use: Anyone can start using the platform from the Day 1. No extensive training required for it. Just integrate your phone number with the platform and solve customer problems at godspeed!
  • IVR Set-up- Want to have different services on a single number for your Services. Set-up IVR and make your life easy.

Cons

  • UI/UX can be Revamped. Their backend platform is very archaic look wise. They can make it more intuitive.
  • Analytics: Analysis of the calls can be more detailed in nature. The downloadable excel only contains the number of calls made by each call agents. More data points can help in swift decision making.
  • No Auto call facility: If the call agent is busy on another call then another lead calling with not be receiving any busy tone. This effects the user experience. Auto-call facility should be there.

Likelihood to Recommend

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.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used EXotel when we launched our offshore site in India. It addressed having a platform in that region.

Pros

  • VOIP
  • Execution
  • Speed

Cons

  • Communication
  • Not for large companies
  • Volume of texts

Likelihood to Recommend

They are well suited in start up in the Central Asia market, would recommend them for that area. We would also recommend their Voice over internet protocol services for mainland as well. Either the text or VOIP was a good service. The experience overall was great with them. Highly recommended.
