As with Dialpad, subscribing to a Google Voice plan gives businesses the ability to make and receive calls through desk phones or web applications.
Dialpad offers an easy-to-use Android and iOS app through which users can make or receive calls and access select features.
Like Dialpad, GoogleVoice subscribers can make and receive calls through a free mobile application for Android and iOS devices.
Incoming calls to a Dialpad account can be routed through an Interactive Voice Response system. Callers can hear the menu in one of ten languages and input responses accordingly. These calls can then be routed to agents in ring groups. The Standard plan ring groups can have 3 agents while the Pro plan ring groups can have up to 10 agents.
Universal availability of call routing through IVR for all Dialpad subscribers gives it an edge over GoogleVoice. The Standard and Premier plans are inclusive of multi-level auto attendant facilities. However, the Starter plan does not include routing through IVR or auto attendant.
Rather than use the default voicemail greeting, Dialpad users can record greetings on the web browser or app. 1. Select the Call Handling and Voicemail tab on the Settings menu. 2. You can upload a recorded message or record a new message.
Similar custom greeting options are offered by dialpad and GoogleVoice. The Google Voice app and web browser can be used to customize greetings. Step 1: Open Voicemail greetings from the Settings menu. Step 2: Click on the Record button and start recording your message.
Calls made by Dialpad subscribers can be monitored for quality control irrespective of the channel chosen to make and receive the call. Dialpad’s call monitoring facilities include listening to live calls, coaching agents during calls, joining calls and taking over calls if required. Calls that cannot be monitored live, can be recorded. Dialpad also offers voicemail transcriptions.
Google Voice offers limited call monitoring options, making it challenging for businesses to efficiently track and manage their calls. This lack of comprehensive monitoring features may impact overall call management.
Dialpad offers call recording as part of its comprehensive communication platform, enabling users to easily record and review important calls for better business management and customer service.
Google Voice provides call recording capabilities, but they are available only in specific paid plans, limiting access for users who require this feature for their business communication needs.
All Dialpad subscribers can make and receive unlimited free calls to the USA, Canada and domestic numbers. Other calls are billed at a location-specific per minute rate. For example, calls to Australia are charged at $0.03 per minute fee.
Limited free calling is included in Dialpad and GoogleVoice plans. Google Voice plans include unlimited calls between Google Voice accounts and numbers in the USA and Canada. International calls are billed at per minute rates based on location. For example, the per minute call rate for Australia ranges from $0.01 to $1.95 per minute.
A Dialpad account is quick and easy to set up. You can create an account with your existing number or get a new number with a local US area code. Once the account is created, you can use Dialpad services from a chrome extension, smartphone or desktop application or certain IP deskphones by Polycom, Obihai and Yealink. If you don't already have these deskphones, they can be purchased through retailers or Dialpad.
Like Dialpad, all Google Voice accounts can be set up and accessed from the web browser/ app. Standard and Premier plan users also have the option to make and receive calls from desk phones with Obi Edition firmware.
