Twilio Power Dialer vs Auto Dialer

· 5 min read

Vendors use “power dialer” and “auto dialer” loosely. For MyBroadcast they describe one product behaviour: work through a contact list on your Twilio account from Chrome.

Industry language

Some call-center suites sell parallel dialers (many lines at once). We do not claim that. Our Twilio Auto Dialer is sequential list calling: finish a call, start the next.

What we mean by Power Dialer

The same workflow — a faster way for sales teams to move through names than manual keypad entry. It is not a second SKU.

Choose based on the job

Need one-off calls? Use the Twilio Softphone. Need a queue of leads? Use auto/power dialing. Need numbers on a webpage? Use click-to-call.
