Allo gives small teams what 8x8 never solved
Small teams don’t need an enterprise phone suite. They need great call quality on mobile, automatic notes, and pricing that makes sense.
Allo focuses on the daily workflow, not heavy features buried behind big tiers like 8x8.

Why Allo is Better?
Aircall is built for sales teams in offices. Allo is built for plumbers, realtors, cleaners, and anyone who works from their phone.
Aircall looks cheap upfront, but quickly becomes expensive. You’ll pay extra for AI, and more. Allo is simple: one plan, all included.
Aircall customers often pay over $100/user. With Allo, you get 3 users for $35/month.
With Aircall, people complain that CRM sync breaks and call summaries aren’t automatic. Allo just works — no setup headaches.
