Open source call center software with predictive dialer

About VICIdial

VICIdial is a contact / call center software suite targeting the telephony and communications requirements of every business up to and including enterprise level. Built on an open source platform and boasting a global installation base, VICIdial boasts a full-featured predictive dialer while also functioning as an Automated Call Distribution (ACD) system. Agents are therefore able to predictively or manually call through campaign lists while also handling inbound and outbound calls on a blended basis. From within a single, centralized web-based interface agents can also respond to inbound emails and engage in live customer chat sessions embedded into an existing website via widget. Routing options and queue prioritization rules then ensure that calls and emails are directed to the most qualified agent, with managers able to listen in on agent calls to monitor performance.

Boasting over 2,000 features in total, VICIdial goes on to include automatic call recording that can be stopped or started at any time, while logging calls and call status. User levels and permissions can be set to restrict certain features or campaign accessibility, before web-based data exporting and sharable real time reporting enables authorized agents, managers and team leaders to analyze call campaign performance.

  • Calls can be recorded automatically, starting and stopping the recording of an agent’s calls at any moment, while all calls and call statuses are logged alongside agent monitoring such as time breakdowns.

  • Built-in reporting capabilities include several real time and summary reports available, while

    Highly customizable and very reliable software, it just works!

    Highly customizable and very reliable software, it just works!

    Pros

    We have requested and implemented numerous customizations to our ViCi system from routing, reports to the agent interface. The ViCi team is always available for support and general questions when I may need further insight regarding modules and settings.
    The class in St. Petersburg is a must if you want to really know the system from an administrator's role and you will get to know the team that built the ViCidial system.

    Cons

    I wish the class was 5 days long and had more about the Asterisk system that ViCi uses. Other than that I have no issues with the ViCi software.

    Call center with over 300 agents working very well.

    Pros

    Easy to understand and easy to use and follow, with linux as base OS you can edit the conf files as you wish. Very complete dialer for any needs. just a few steps and minutes for installation. The deployment is very fast. No time wasted. You can find forums online to solve any issue or the Vicidial support has a very higth response timing.

    Cons

    So far so good. no problem after all. Integrations with many CRM is a plus.

    i do not really care for vicidial that much. we used five9 before and i liked it alot better. it seemed easier to use and operate

    Pros

    the way it gives you so many different options when u disposition the calls

    Cons

    the way it sends alot of answering machine thru to the employees instead of filtering them out

    Response from Vicidial Group

    There are options for better filtering Answering Machines going to agents, depending on how your system is configured.

    I've been working with VICIDial for 10 yeas. Hundreds of callcenters on current support.

    Reviewed on 2018/04/28

    Pros

    VICIDial's biggest advantage isn't it's free, It's OPEN SOURCE. This software allows deep integration with 3rd party system while keep performance from small to large callcenters.

    Cons

    Every middle/big callcenter based on VICIDial should know that is mandatory to have specialized support from well trained person.
