A FreJun alternative built for small Indian sales teams

FreJun quotes Per-user monthly plans plus calling charges; check their site for current rates, so compare the total once every caller and any WhatsApp add-on is counted. RMDialer is about ₹159 per user a month on the yearly plan with the full feature set included.

Yes. Export your leads to Excel or CSV and import them in the app, mapping your own columns. Duplicate numbers are matched and merged rather than added twice.

Your own SIM. The call goes out from the phone in your hand and shows your own number, which is why answer rates in India stay high. VoIP numbers are far more likely to be flagged as spam.

Automatic call recording on every call, stored in the cloud: reliable in a way on-phone Android recording is not. If that is the deciding factor for you, they are a reasonable choice, and we would rather tell you than have you find out after paying.

No. A virtual number is only needed when calls must be routed through a cloud platform, for example for an inbound IVR. An outbound sales team can run entirely on business SIMs in the reps' phones, with the app logging every call and the owner reading the reports. Customers also answer known mobile numbers more readily than unfamiliar virtual ones.

Between about ₹150 and ₹1,500 per user per month depending on whether calling is included. Desktop CRMs charge for the record-keeping and leave calling to a separate tool; mobile telecalling CRMs include the dialer. RMDialer is ₹159 per user per month on the yearly plan, plus taxes, every feature included, with a 3-day free trial and no card needed.

For a business that sells on the phone, the best CRM is one that lives in the phone dialer, so it fills itself in from calls, costs a few hundred rupees per user and includes WhatsApp. Desktop CRMs like Zoho and Freshsales suit teams with a sales process and someone to maintain the data; most small Indian businesses have neither.

All four are Indian SIM-based telecalling CRMs. The practical differences are price per user, whether WhatsApp automation and the WhatsApp API are included or an add-on, how many languages the app itself runs in, and offline behaviour. RMDialer includes WhatsApp and 40 languages at one price; Runo has deeper call-centre style reporting; TeleCRM and NeoDove are stronger on desktop workflows.

For outbound sales on mobile numbers, SIM-based: higher answer rates, no per-minute bills, works offline, runs on phones the team already has. For high-volume inbound with IVR, queues and recording, cloud call-centre software. Many businesses run both: cloud for the support line, SIM-based for the sales team.

A telecalling CRM is customer software built around phone calls: the lead list, the dialer, the call outcome and the follow-up live in one place. The mobile kind, such as RMDialer, replaces the Android phone app on each rep's handset so every call automatically becomes a record with a status, a remark and the next follow-up, and the manager sees the whole team on a web dashboard.

Telecalling software is built to make and track calls (dialing lists, call logs, per-caller reports). A CRM is built to hold customer records and pipeline stages. Most Indian sales teams need both at once, which is why a telecalling CRM combines them: the call itself creates and updates the customer record, so nobody types into a separate system after the call.

A CRM dialer is a single app where the dialer and the customer record are the same thing: the call screen shows the lead, and ending the call updates it. It differs from a CRM with "dialer integration", which is two products joined by a sync. RMDialer is a CRM dialer for Android that runs on the user's own SIM.

About an hour for a small team. Each person installs the app from the Play Store, signs in with the team account and sets it as the default phone app. The owner adds users on the Web CRM, imports the first lead list from Excel and assigns it. Most teams make their first auto-dialled calls the same day.

For small and mid-sized Indian teams the best fit is a SIM-based auto dialer that runs on the phones they already own, because customers answer normal mobile numbers and there is no per-minute bill. RMDialer, Runo, GoDial, Calley and NeoDove all offer this; they differ on whether a CRM, WhatsApp automation and team reports are included in the same price.

A power dialer calls one number at a time for one agent and waits for that call to end, so every answered call has a person ready. A predictive dialer calls several numbers at once and connects the ones that answer to whichever agent is free, which needs a call-centre server and causes dropped "silent" calls. Mobile auto dialers like RMDialer are power dialers on a SIM.
