Saves your B2B Business
What do you like best about the product?
Tracking inbound calls on DM. DM tracking has always been a little hard, but nice to attribution from inbound calls.
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting isn't as insightful as possible. Sometimes tracking can get lost. Ill look at see no inbound calls one day and then it hops up to multiple. Then itll drop back down to 0 calls.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Attribution from DM campaigns, as well digital campaigns
SurVo Classic IVR
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to configure IVR templates with complex branching and real-time notification. I like that you can put placeholders in the template and pass actual text on-the-fly when you initiate the call. That allows me to use the same template for different outbound message scenarios.
What do you dislike about the product?
I currently only use their SurVo Classic IVR. Compared to other outbound IVR solutions, I think their rates could be more competitive, but it works as expected and is part of a larger suite which may bring additional value if you need the additional features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use outbound IVR for automated notifcations to our employees (Emergency notifications, schedule change alerts, reminders, critical incident alerts, available shift alerts, etc.) With thousands of employees to contact, it saves a lot of manpower to automate these outbound calls and track their responses.
I have been working with Dialog Tech for a short period
What do you like best about the product?
My rep seams reasonable and willing to work with us on our needs and changes
What do you dislike about the product?
I believe flexibility is key in our sector and having contracts that do not allow an out clause even after the initial contract period seams too aggressive and likely cause customers to go looking for another service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Dialogtech as a call tracking service which allows us to track attribution to our magazine. We have had some luck
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you understand your constrains and needs very well.

We can better optimize our campaigns for service vs sales calls.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Really ask a lot of questions, and if they say yes they can do something, challenge that and ask them how they are going to implement that.
We got a lot of yes' that turned into no's.

Increased visibility into Paid Search performance
What do you like best about the product?
The Invoca team is passionate about their clients and their product. They helped us clear many hurdles during the implementation process. Once live, the team consistently provided updates.
The call listening and phrase spotting features are fantastic. It's very easy to listen to a full call, or, only listen to the parts of the phone call that match the phrase you want. This is a huge time saver.

What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is a bit confusing at first. Some features are obvious but other features, like excluding numbers or uploading a CSV of phone numbers, was harder to find.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Invoca has allowed us to understand the impact that Paid Search has on driving meaningful phone calls. This level of visibility has been a great value-add for us.
Enables deeper patient understanding and Marketing ROI
What do you like best about the product?
Invoca enables real time analysis of the experience patients are having with our system and the ability to connect our Marketing investments to actual interactions and revenue at the individual level.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any particular dislikes. Invoca is working well for us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem we have solved is the ability to connect our Marketing investments to revenue to justify those investments, practice continual improvement in our Marketing mix and demonstrate ROI. We've also eliminated simulated mystery shopping effort and expense and redirected our market researcher to the analysis of actual consumer interactions recorded in our Invoca database. The addition of AI on text analytics allows us to sort calls and answer important questions like, the percentage of patients who call for an appointment who actually get one. We've also been able to bust some myths about the percentage of patients who call our physician's offices whose calls are actually returned.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Seriously consider it.
The team has been very dedicated to our success
What do you like best about the product?
The technology is top notch. Being able to bridge the session and cookie ids to a call is crucial for us to get our attribution into the 21st century. The team has been very wonderful to work with as we have gotten to know them (and even from day one the enthusiasm was refreshing).
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside was that the pitch was a little misleading from a google ads perspective. I was under the impression that we would be able to dynamically insert phone numbers into the google ads but later found that it was only possible for users to visit the website. We found that more than 80% of our callers from this channel call from the ad rather than the website. It would be amazing if you could partner with google on a deeper level however I understand their walled gardens. Maybe work to set expectations a little clearer during sales pitches that this swapping can only occur when the JS is executed and that it can only be executed on a website that allows you to add it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As mentioned above, we were able to learn what percentage of time customers are calling from Google Results page vs the website. This includes Google my business placements as well as Ads. Attribution for all online activity has been the biggest win, being able to tie a call to a specific cookie and session id.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
do it.
Outstanding Call Tracking system
What do you like best about the product?
Invoca enables our team to set up unique local and toll free phone number for each and every marketing campaign. We can use local number of geographically targeted regional campaigns and toll free number for broad based campaign. the execution is outstanding. All of the numbers are then reported on so that we can see the phone call in element and how it contributes to the performance of the campaign. It is also easy to add additional numbers and retire numbers associated with completed campaign. Some numbers can even be edited in terms of reporting parameters. The details behind each numbers gives us specific insights into the behavior of our respondents. There is all trend reporting that allow us to see call volume by day of week and period over period analysis. All reports can be exported into either CVS for Excel formats. It is also possible to customize reporting formats, fields and data ranges.
What do you dislike about the product?
Downloading big transactional reports can take some time to export. This is because there is a tremendous amount of data. However, the product has very little downside. Its ability to utilize google IDs is exceptional. Another issue is that we occasionally need to expand our license to allow for a larger pool of phone numbers and this adds a small cost to the yearly subscription that our company has to pay. The final recommendation for improvement is integration with Salesforce CRM. We use Salesforce CRM to manage all our incoming leads. The integration of data from calls into Salesforce was needed to Salesforce reporting. However, the integration required a significant amount of IT development support and could not be completed by the marketing team
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Invoca gives us attribution and reporting on incoming calls. We have improved our rate of attribution by over 30%. This allows us to more accurately evaluate marketing campaigns and determine where to allocate our advertising dollars. We have over 200 telephone numbers set up and the reports allows us to track the number of calls, the call duration, the date and time of the call, whether the call was mobile or traditional phone line and the type of media that was the source of the call. The information is very valuable to our organization. The impact on our work has been tremendous. We now know more about our potential customers and which campaigns are most effective.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Improve the data integration process so that information can be shared easily with Salesforce CRM
Sr. Marketing Analyst
What do you like best about the product?
We just implemented in the last year and found Invoca to be very helpful in call tracking.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have not yet experienced anything at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This has helped us with inbound calls (mainly sales leads).
Needs A Simpler Solution that's Affordable
What do you like best about the product?
I can easily tell how many calls each of our website tracking sources generated based on UTM parameters in my web traffic. The support rep was very helpful. She contacted us frequently, visited our location, and provided material that was helpful. I always thought that Invoca was a luxury service but the pricetag was definitely a luxury pricetag. I like the user interface and how I could find specific calls I wanted to review or see performance by specific efforts we were taking. It seemed to work consistently without being broken often. I can't remember if it was ever broken. It was a pretty smooth user experience from a marketing analyst perspective.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how expensive it is. I just need a simple call tracking solution and a cheap package that has ONLY the features I want. I feel like I'm using a solution that overkill for my needs and am paying for a luxury product when I don't need one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Call volume by marketing tactic. That's as simple as I need and that's what we use it for. Also, we solved an audience issue by excluding fom our campaigns the audience that had completed phonecalls.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Pay attention to the features your getting and the cost of. It might be overkill. It might have everything you need. Invoca has more "marketing" resources than just call tracking, so building that in to your use case would be necessary when considering the cost/benefit of Invoca.
I think it has great solutions. The audience building is great, the attribution is great. I love finding specific calls in there and listening to them. Vet out all your marketing efforts and make sure Invoca can configure sufficiently to get the insights you need.
