Built specifically for sales teams who need to dial leads, track conversations, and manage pipelines. Everything focused on closing deals.

  • ✓ Power dialer with auto-advance
  • ✓ Built-in CRM and lead management
  • ✓ Call notes and outcomes
  • ✓ Task and callback management
  • ✓ CSV import for lead lists
  • ✓ Free forever

RingCentral: Unified Comms

Enterprise communication platform for entire organizations. Great for replacing office phone systems, but overkill (and expensive) for just sales calling.

  • ✓ Business phone system
  • ✓ Video conferencing
  • ✓ Team chat and messaging
  • ✓ Mobile and desk phone support
  • ✓ Auto attendant / IVR
  • ✗ No built-in CRM ($20-45/user/mo)

Common Questions

Can DialSheet replace RingCentral for my sales team?

Yes, if you only need sales calling and CRM. DialSheet gives you power dialing, lead management, call tracking, and notes. But if you need video meetings, business phone system, or team chat, RingCentral is a fuller solution (at a much higher cost).

Does DialSheet have video conferencing?

Not currently. DialSheet focuses on sales calling and CRM. For video, use free tools like Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams alongside DialSheet. You'll still save money vs paying for RingCentral's full suite.

Why is RingCentral so much more expensive?

RingCentral is a unified communications platform with phone systems, video, messaging, and more. If you're only using it for sales calling, you're paying for features you don't need. DialSheet focuses solely on what sales teams actually use daily.

Sales Calling Shouldn't Cost $20-45/User
