Smith.ai Outreach Campaigns vs. Upcall: In-Depth Comparison

We estimated Upcall’s pricing based on third-party websites and reviews, but Upcall themselves doesn’t advertise their exact pricing on their website. Smith.ai believes in transparency. Our per-contact pricing is advertised clearly on our website meaning your monthly costs will be based on how many contacts you’d like us to reach out to on your behalf — it’s as simple as that.

And with Smith.ai, you get more bang for your buck. Unlike Upcall, we don't limit the amount of agents working on your campaign. We utilize AI to enable a much larger team to maximize responsiveness beyond what a team of just 3-5 people can accomplish. 

Upcall isn’t available 24/7/365, Smith.ai is. It doesn't matter what time zone your customers (or our agents) are in, your leads will be reached in a timely manner. Not only are our agents available around-the-clock, but they’re all North America-based and work from quiet home offices, as well, so they sound like they’re in-house. Plus, since we're fully remote, our hiring practices focus on skill, not location. You can rest assured your leads are in good hands with Smith.ai. 

Upcall doesn’t advertise many of the useful features, like payment collection or call routing, that takes work off your team’s plate. Smith.ai’s services don’t start and end with sales support. Our professionals are not only experienced in sales enablement, but have the capacity to become a true extension of your office: We can make outbound calls on your behalf and be the staff who receives call-backs and inbound calls from leads and clients with our Virtual Receptionist plans. We provide comprehensive coverage so you can address all your business needs under one roof.

Sure, both Upcall and Smith.ai have dashboards that allow you to manage campaigns digitally. Upcall’s dashboard helps you measure your campaign stats, but Smith.ai’s dashboard goes above and beyond to give you full-visibility into your campaign’s success. We capture key data on the caller, including the time of the call, call attempt number, from phone number, lead status — even action taken. That way, you know exactly what happened during and after every call. And with access to detailed call summaries as well as audio recordings and searchable transcripts of every call, the proof is in the pudding. 

As far as technology is concerned, Upcall fails to compare to Smith.ai. We play well with over 5,000 CRMs, marketing platforms, calendars, billing systems, and intake forms. Furthermore, our AI platform connects to you via SMS, Slack, and Zapier. We even have an open API (for our more tech-savvy users). 

For higher quality outreach sales support at more affordable pricing, flexible features, robust CRM integrations, and 24/7 North America-based professionals, businesses prefer Smith.ai to Upcall.
