The perfect tool for cold calling

Cold calling is still undefeated when it comes to finding new leads and although with cold mailing you can target a bulk of prospects from a click of a button, cold calling still has a higher chance of gaining the prospect’s trust through live conversation.

A great tool for telephone contact with customers. It has super useful and interesting features such as filling out an aftercall record after the call, where you can label it and leave a note, whisper and listen-in option for the supervisor, after-call survey options, and the PBX set-up is intuitive. In addition, the support team is attentive and responsive. We have been with them for a year now and we won’t be going anywhere!

Power up your sales and marketing agents with the best automatic call dialler software from Ringover. By automating the process of contact dialling, our power dialler helps you dial faster and cover more contacts, thus making your sales team more productive.

I don’t run a big call centre. Can I still use a power dialler?

Yes, Ringover’s is designed for small to medium teams including support or sales departments, even if they are made up of only a few employees. No specific skills or background is required - just select a list of contacts and team members can start calling today.

How many phone numbers can I call?

You can call up to 300 numbers per campaign but you can launch as many campaigns as you wish. A power dialler is ideal for launching small, individual calling campaigns with lists of 10 to 300 contacts.

What is the cost to make calls?

The Power Dialler software is included in our Advanced plan starting at £49 user/month. Calls are billed according to our standard unlimited call plan with calls to more than 110 landline and mobile destinations included in the price.

What is the difference between a power dialler and a predictive dialler?

The main difference is that a predictive dialler is a mass-call automation tool which dials several numbers at the same time, assigning a call to an available agent once it’s answered. The power dialler, however, dials numbers one after the other, ensuring the previous call is completed before dialling the next number. While the predictive dialler is used at the team level, the power dialler is a call automation tool managed at the individual agent level. A predictive dialler is properly designed to be used in large teams and is managed at the supervisor level. It enables the supervisor to optimise call productivity for the entire team. The power dialler is more adapted to small and medium teams.

Power diallers and predictive diallers are automated outbound dialling systems that dial prospects on behalf of agents. While they both help reduce manual dialling time, they have the following differences.

Power DiallersPredictive Diallers
Dials numbers one after the other from a pre-set list of contactsDials several numbers simultaneously and assigns live calls to available agents
Waits for the agent to complete the previous call before dialling the next contactDials the next contact in the queue before the agent completes the previous call
Uses no mathematical predictions – it simply dials the number one after the otherUses complex algorithms to predict agent availability and dial rate
Handles medium call volume – 100 to 250 calls/agent/dayHandles high call volume – 300+ calls/agent/day
Suitable for large teams and campaignsIdeal for small and medium teams
Experiences fewer dropped callsExperiences more dropped calls

How much is a power dialler?

There is no standard or fixed pricing for power dialler software. The charges will depend on the service provider you choose.

For instance, Ringover has no stand-alone power dialler pricing for businesses. It comes included as a feature in the Advanced plan. The pricing for the plan is £49 per user per month for annual billing and £59 per user per month for monthly billing.

Besides the monthly subscription fees, standard call rates will apply for outgoing calls. The plan includes unlimited landline and mobile calls to more than 90 destinations. Charges will apply for calls made using the auto dialler software to out-of-plan destinations.

While there might be cheap power diallers, it is best to choose one that is cost-effective and feature-rich. To learn more about Ringover power dialler pricing and functionalities, click here.

What is power dialling mode?

Power dialling mode, also called automatic call dialler mode, is an outbound dialling technology that automates the call dialling process. When you use power dialler software to make calls, it picks numbers from a predefined list of contacts/prospects and starts calling them one after the other.

An automatic dialler dials a number, connects it to the prospect, and waits for the agent to complete the call before dialling the next contact in the queue. Call dialler tools help agents reduce the time spent on choosing contacts from a list or CRM and manually dialling them.

Are predictive diallers illegal?

No. Using predictive call dialler software to make calls is not illegal in the US or anywhere else in the world. However, you must adhere to federal and state regulations in your country regarding telemarketing calls.

To give a little background, companies once used automatic caller dialler tools to promote their products and services without consent from receivers. Many countries have formed regulations to end this practice and place restrictions on auto dialling and robocalls.

For instance, the US has the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). It prevents marketers that use auto dialler software and robocalls from making calls without obtaining prior consent from the receiver.

Likewise, most countries have a national Do Not Call (DNC) list where people can register their numbers to opt in or out of telecalls. You must first check the DNC database, failing which you might attract compliance issues and penalties.

Are power diallers legal?

Yes. All types of automatic diallers, including power dialler software, are legal in most parts of the world. However, you must comply with all telemarketing rules and regulations in your country to avoid legal repercussions.

Organisations that use automatic call dialler software to make calls in the US, for instance, must abide by the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and avoid calling prospects without their prior consent. Likewise, you should check the Do Not Call (DNC) registry to get the list of people who have opted in or out of telemarketing calls and robocalls.
