Overall Satisfaction with CallRail
Currently CallRail is being utilized in one of our departments within our whole organization.
We use CallRail primarily for call tracking for our clients. Typically the best situation to use a CallRail call tracking number is within a Google AdWords campaign. We set up the campaign within AdWords and assign a phone number within CallRail for this client to be able to track phone calls coming from our paid campaign. This allows us to specifically take responsibility for these leads + be able to listen to recorded phone calls at any point throughout the campaign.

- Tracking phone calls first & foremost! Being able to have a running tally of the phone calls made and listening to the recorded calls throughout the month and providing that information back to our clients is vital!
- Their UI is exceptionally easy to use & navigate. This is important when we have many clients running at the same time and we are able to always determine what report is for which client.
- The ease of setting up a brand new client & their tracking phone number is fantastic! Saves a lot of time when it walks you through everything you need to know & do step by step.
- Some client facing reporting would be great! We typically don't give clients logins, as all of our clients are within one business UI. Having something that a client can log into would be very helpful!
- Although the entire purpose of CallRail is the recorded phone calls - it would be nice to have some additional in depth reporting to be able to report back to a client to give us more insights!
- Pricing tiers could be better for agency type businesses.
- We have been able to utilize this platform to bring a new product to our clientele. We are able to be profitable on it because we can charge our clients to use this service as well.
- Tracking back conversions to our advertising campaigns is a huge win for any sort of publisher/agency.
- Sometimes the invoice can get out of hand if we are utilizing too many numbers and since you have to pay per minute as well, it can get pricey!
We have utilized Google call tracking within AdWords before, but considering it is a Google product, it can sometimes be biased. Having that third party vendor elevates that.
Google Call tracking is only limited to running AdWords campaigns, so if we need to use a phone number in any other fashion within our business, it couldn't be used.
