Amazing software for outbound calling

It's an inexpensive solution which allows complete management of any outbound campaign. It's fully customizable which makes it really appealing, you can have different campaigns and different strategies to call. If you don't have too much money to invest, this is your best choice.

PROS

I was looking for an inexpensive solution for a 400 seat call center and I ran into vicidial, it's very easy to use and you can tailor it to your company needs, it's also open source which allows you to add really helpful features. It has all you need for outbound, reporting, tools, dialer, user management, just the best.

CONS

I would say the installation, was a bit hard mainly on the telco side but that would be its only flaw.

If you need a call center, Vici is there for you.

PROS

Free and open source program in active development and works, consistently. I've based my entire business on this software and it's working wonderfully. Even the free version has an extremely active community, including the developers, that really want to help you get the system up and going. I have had better support experiences on the free Vicidial forum than I have on a service running.

CONS

Being free and open-source, i suppose i can't complain too much. But the front-end/GUI could use an overhaul pretty bad. The interface looks like a mid-90s website. Granted behind that GUI is a rock-solid system, it would be nice to have something better to look at every day.

Pretty good software to start a contact center!

Good software to start a contact center business, with ups and downs, weaknesses that affect growth and force you to move to other more complete software,

PROS

Really easy to implement and run, Light and open to be used in any operating system.

CONS

Reporting and analytics are too weak, They should be better to be able to have accurate data and work with the teams and obtain better performance.

Reason for choosing VICIdial

Price and rapid implementation to start a business running as soon as possible.

Vendor Response

We recently added a new enhanced reporting module(VERM) with dozens of new comprehensive reports. It is free and included in the VICIdial software codebase, you just need to upgrade your system to get it.

ViciDial is our dialer of choice for good reason: it's incredibly powerful and is a great value

I've built a great business over the past few years, and ViciDial is the foundation of my business.

PROS

customer service is fantastic. there's rarely a wait for help, almost every time a human picks up the phone right away -- a very experienced and helpful human, at that! I've attended the in-person training at Vici HQ in Tampa and had a great time learning the ins and outs of the software, as well as meeting the very friendly and helpful staff. Love those guys!

CONS

ViciDial takes time to learn, and takes much longer to master -- but that's only because it's so powerful and has so many features. Some people remark that the interface is ugly or not user-friendly, but I disagree -- I prefer less bells & whistles & icons & emojis, prefer a thin interface with more functionality.

Very good dialer system

In general, it works for your purpose, which is to generate a flow of outgoing calls and increase the efficiency of users.

PROS

This app is a very effective dialer for virtual or local call centers, it allows you to load the call list directly to the queue, and they will be assigned according to the campaign that each connected user has in their profile.

CONS

Probably one of the problems with this app is its interface, it is very rudimentary, it seems more a tool from when the internet started, and html was the only language to design web pages. Another problem that it generates is with cookies, sometimes it does not connect since the browser is hung with previous cookies.

Vendor Response

Vicidial does not actually web use browser cookies, and it never has.
