What it is
Complete system
What it does
A sales CRM built around calling, SMS and email, with a power dialer, sequences and an AI assistant that logs activity and books meetings.
Adopt it when
An inside sales team does high-volume outbound calling and email and wants dialing built into the CRM.
Watch out
It is a poor fit for field sales or account management, and calling costs add to the seat price.

Cloud service and mobile app
