Most Helpful Positive User Review
“Dialpad makes Unified Communications really easy. It’s all cloud-based, so I can use it on any computer either with the apps or Google Chrome extension. The mobile apps work great on my iPad, iPhone, and Android devices, and the set up is a breeze. The best feature is the fact that they don’t overload you with features, settings, and unnecessary controls. The recent floating Dialpad Anywhere mini-control app allows me to get out of the dialer and have controls like call transfer and hold visible to me, while I’m working in another application on the screen of my Mac.”

Most Helpful Negative User Review
“The biggest issue for me is the call quality. I’ve used a few other VoIP dialers with the same internet, same headset, exact same situation, and they have all been better in call quality and connectivity. The way they organize missed calls and voicemails make them easy to accidentally miss or get lost in the mess. Also, the mobile app makes it so difficult to receive calls on your phone from Dialpad as any other number looks the exactly the same. Even after uninstalling the Dialpad app on my phone, I would still always get Dialpad calls.”

Dialpad makes Unified Communications really easy. It’s all cloud based so I can use it on any computer either with the apps or using a Google Chrome extension. The mobile apps work great on my iPAD, iPhone and Android devices and set up is a breeze.
The best feature is the fact that they don’t overload you with features, settings and unnecessary controls. The recent floating Dialpad Anywhere mini-control app allows me to get out of the dialer and have controls like call transfer and hold visible to me while i’m working in another application on the screen of my Mac.
If Dialpad falls short its that their conferencing product, UberConference lacks video conferencing. The great music on hold, and the simplicity of file sharing, calling out to get someone on the call more than makes up for it though.
Not much. I was using Dialpad from the day the service started as Switch because I was a UberConference user since it started.

Very simple and intuitive interface. The call quality is excellent. It’s really easy to do what we need to do. I like that we can call and text from our numbers.
Sometimes it is a little too simple. There is a limited set of settings.
I knew the founder had started the original dial pad and also google voice. I knew this company would be big and I knew they would be successful. I have not been disappointed.

The interface is easy to use for the most part. I think what they have really done well is the connectivity between the mobile app and desktop app. It’s really easy to switch between the two which is an amazing feature. Text works great, call history works great. Has all the basics that you’d want.
The biggest issue for me is the call quality. I’ve used a few other VoIP dialers with the same internet, same headset, exact same situation and they have all been better in call quality and connectivity. Also, the way they organize missed calls and voicemails make them easy to accidentally miss or get lost in the mess. Also, the mobile app makes it so that receiving a call on your phone from Dialpad or any other number looks the exact same. Even after uninstalling the Dialpad app on my phone I would still always get dialpad calls.
I wish I knew that the connectivity wasn’t good. That’s been the biggest issue.

The UI/UX of their software is great. It is by-far the most user-friendly and nicest software of any of the VoIP solutions. The mobile app is great and they really nailed the design side compared to competitors.
Configuration/setup is great. Setting up an auto-attendant is super easy as well, but it is not as fully featured as some other VoIP’s like RingCentral. Does enough for what I need it to do for my business though. Configuration is straightforward and user-friendly versus many of the competitors.
The call quality/dependability is so iffy. Sometimes it works and works well. If I’m hard-wired on my computer, it tends to work well. Most of the time when making calls on my cellphone though (even on dependable wifi), I have been told that I was choppy and they could not hear me. It has really made my look bad in many areas.
There is the “beta” data calling feature that has been in beta for like 2 years now and whenever I give it a try, I end up shutting it off after a few days. I want it to work well, but in practice, I have had more issues with it than using the cell forwarding aspect.
The contact management is also a mess. I often have like 3 duplicates of the same contact and I never know which one has the history in it. There is no way to handle duplicates, they are claiming often that the duplicates are inside of my Google Contacts, but I go in there and run “remove duplicates” and it finds nothing. I can’t seem to find the duplicates on my end either. It has just been a rough experience. I expect more out of a company that deeply integrates with G Suite.
They also significantly lack integrations. They don’t even connect with Zapier even though tons of the community has been requesting it for ages. This is supposed to be a SMB VoIP solution, and yet, very few SMB companies are using Salesforce as their CRM. Yet that’s the only thing they integrate with.. Feels more like they made that integration for their own usage. Why not do it for other big CRMS in the SMB space like ProsperWorks?
I wish I had known the issues above. But even with them, I find myself sticking with them. The pricing is great and I really do love the UX of the apps. I’m continuing to give them the benefit of the doubt 2 years later and hoping that they eventually get their act together.

Easy provisioning, pricing structure, mobile and desktop apps are excellent.
Support is just OK – email only, no instant chat or phone support.
Nothing.
