CloudTalk
Stands out: Unlimited US and Canada calling with local numbers in 160-plus countries on a published seat price. HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce, Close, and WhatsApp are named.
Watch out: $25 is Starter on annual billing; Essential is $29 and Expert $49. Preview, power and parallel dialers, branded caller ID and AI conversation intelligence are add-ons, and CRM integrations do not turn on until Essential. Calling is still usage on top.
Not the right fit for
- US-only SMS recruiting
- People who want a CRM included (use Close)
- Buyers who need $9 CRM-plus-dialer
JustCall
Stands out: Calling, SMS and CRM logging on Team, a power dialer on Pro, AI coaching on Pro Plus, and a hosted MCP server.
Watch out: Two-user minimum, so Team starts at $58/mo. The AI Voice Agent is a separate per-minute add-on, and the power dialer starts on Pro.
Not the right fit for
- Solo users (two-license minimum)
- Buyers who need AI coaching on the cheapest plan
