I would suggest to everyone who is in the sales industry

I am a sales person and aircall's call quality is brilliant..no cracking up like hubspot..no bad line, delays..just a clear sound...is like when you see blur and suddenly you use contact lenses!! I was using hubspot for so long and their signal is really bad..i cant do sales when people cant hear me or i have to repeat myself 3 times...

We recently switched from Toky, and overall Aircall has been much better in terms of call quality

Via Capterra with permission from Aircall

Pros: It's easier to use and the desktop app for calling is better as well.
Cons: The only reason I'm writing this review is because they have a ridiculous pricing ceiling on their Essentials plan, where you can't show the dashboard of calls in your local timezone (everything is set to UTC). This completely screws up the calls reports, as we don't know how many calls were made on which day. I was told by support that I need to upgrade to show the dashboard in my own timezone.
Would Recommend: Yes

I could set up a call center in matter of minutes, and it is very easy to use! And the calls that arrive, we can forward to personal mobiles, that has helped us to make sure that we would not lose any important calls. The best part is, we can record and make a note of all the calls, and we can also put up a setting for greetings. The desktop app is self-sufficient to receive calls, and I should say the quality of these calls are just awesome. The customer service team is very responsive, they have quickly got back to us whenever we had any concerns. The application integrates with pipedrive, slack and thereby had helped our staff to stay connected for better support.

Pros: The application is very much cost effective in comparison to the features it provides.
Cons: We need a strong internet to use this application. There are a lot of updates available every now and then, but updating and restarting of the application has become a very irritating task.

Aircall was really easy to setup, and the team were very helpful and forthcoming with information. They integrate really well with lots of different CRMs and that's where the most useful features of the system come into play.

Pros: Being able to see who's calling, log that straight away in the software, and also have a quick link to click to view that customer/client information means the agent handling the call can in most cases respond much more quickly, and save the step searching for the customer's records.
Cons: It's quite expensive per user, almost twice the cost per user of our current physical phone system, and more expensive than other software phone providers. There also were some strange issues with the bluetooth streaming protocols forced on bluetooth headsets when using their app which hasn't been present in other similar apps that I trialed and tested.

Aircall integrates with our other systems and programs seamlessly, allowing our email campaigns to feed information through with ease. Aircall also offers the ability to track performance and activities across the globe, particularly useful for us when contacting international applicants / students.

Pros: Initial setup was very quick and easy, it took no time at all for us to get everything installed and configured correctly.
Cons: The connection strength can be shaky at best, since Aircall relies on an internet connection this is to be expected, but for our staff who are off-campus somewhere else in the world this can be particularly annoying. It took me and our team some time to get used to the user-interface, trying to figure out where everything is really was a pain. Also, this is made even worse when using Aircall on a mobile device.

I like that it is easy to use and navigate. It's also easy to find recorded calls if you need to go back and listen for something.

We frequently have issues with call quality and dropped calls. It has been a little better since we started opening in Chrome rather than through the app.

Pros: The phone calls that I have used Aircall for have been clear and I have not had an issue with calls being dropped.

Cons: I wish that the software would automatically make you unavailable after a set period of time so that you didn't have to keep doing it yourself.

Amanda B.'s review for Aircall

The built in note taking option that can be made into an Intercom conversation is super helpful. Also, the internet browser add-on makes clicking on phone numbers to call a breeze!

Editor’s Bottom Line of Aircall

One of the newest companies to enter the VoIP space, Aircall has experienced incredible growth.  This is not surprising considering the high quality communication solutions that Aircall offers.  Aircall has been praised for being easy to use. Both in setup and day-to-day use, Aircall solutions are simple and intuitive, which is good for startups and SMBs that don't have a full time IT staff on hand or the time to go through a slow learning curve for a new phone system.

Aircall solutions are similarly easy to scale, which is another benefit to growing SMBs.  Despite the simplicity of Aircall, they offer an exhaustive list of cutting edge features (as can be seen in the list above). Advanced call analytics, which are usually only available at premium price points, are offered by Aircall at their mid range tier. In fact, nearly all of Aircall's advanced features are available at the mid range tier, with the exception of an SLA, API support and Custom Analytics.  This fact combined with a very low minimum number of users to start the plan (only 3) makes the Aircall professional plan extremely accessible to businesses of all sizes.

The one drawback to Aircall is price. At $30/month per user for their most basic plan, Aircall is not the cheapest service.  It should also be noted that Aircall charges by the minute for outbound calls.

What you get for the price, however, is a powerhouse service that will allow you to not only communicate, but better serve your clients through tracking, analytics, collaboration and integration.  If you have a business or call center that mainly works with inbound calls, Aircall is an excellent value.  If your company makes a lot of outbound calls, it would be best to contact Aircall directly and set up a custom plan that includes the outbound minutes you need.
