How we make this list: we compare pricing pages, product documentation and public user reviews. Rankite is independent; if a vendor ever pays for a featured spot, that listing is clearly labeled Partner.
Key takeaways
- Predictive dialer pricing runs from $0 (open-source VICIdial, self-hosted) to $199 per license per month (Readymode). Most cloud options land between $65 and $165 per agent per month.
- JustCall ($29 per user per month) and MightyCall ($20 per user per month) are the affordable on-ramps, but true predictive dialing sits on their top tiers.
- Five9 ($159 per concurrent user per month) and NICE CXone ($135 per agent per month) are the enterprise standards, with seat minimums and multi-year terms to match.
- Convoso publishes no prices at all: budget a sales call and confirm telecom costs on top of the per-seat quote.

The best predictive dialer software
Predictive dialer pricing on this list runs from $0 to $199 per seat per month, and the spread reflects what you are actually buying. At the bottom is raw dialing power: software that dials multiple lines per agent and connects them only to live answers. At the top are full contact-center platforms where the dialer is one module among dozens. In between are the tools most sales teams actually buy: affordable cloud dialers with CRM integrations and AI summaries. These nine cover the range, with the per-seat math and the contract terms spelled out.
#1
Five9
Best for: Mid-size to enterprise outbound and blended call centers
Visit five9.com
Starting price$159 per concurrent user/month (Core bundle)
Free planNo
Five9 is the enterprise standard for a reason. Preview, progressive, predictive and power dialing come with built-in recording, live monitoring and quality management, plus answering machine detection and compliance controls that high-volume floors need. The 3,000 included minutes per seat keep the telecom math simple.
The commercial package is the filter. At $159 per concurrent user per month with a 50-seat minimum and typically 36-month terms, this is a commitment, not a signup. Add-ons for AI and some CRM integrations stack on top. If you run a real call center at scale, the reliability justifies it. If you have 8 reps, look at JustCall or MightyCall.
What we like- Purpose-built predictive, power and preview dialers in the Core bundle
- Strong campaign tools with compliance controls
- 3,000 minutes per seat included
Watch out for- 50-seat minimum with standard 36-month contracts
- Per-concurrent-user pricing can inflate costs
#2
Talkdesk
Best for: Growing sales and support teams wanting dialing plus a full contact center
Visit talkdesk.com
Starting price$105 per user/month (CX Cloud Voice Essentials)
Free planFree trial (15 days, Express)
Talkdesk pairs predictive dialing with a modern contact-center platform: IVR, ACD, recording, workforce management and a fast-moving AI layer with agent assist and interaction analytics. The AppConnect marketplace covers 70-plus integrations. For a team that needs inbound, outbound and digital in one place, the breadth is compelling.
Price the whole stack, not the headline tier. Voice Essentials is $105, but Elite (omnichannel) is $165 and Industry Experience Clouds run $225, with telecom usage billed on top of seats. The Express tier at $25 per user per month (25-seat cap) is the small-team on-ramp. Implementation usually takes weeks with partner help.
What we like- Predictive dialing with multi-line pacing inside a full CCaaS platform
- Strong AI layer with agent assist and analytics
- Express tier gives small teams a low entry point
Watch out for- True omnichannel needs Elite at $165 per user per month
- Telephony and AI usage billed on top
#3
Convoso
Best for: High-volume outbound sales teams and call centers
Visit convoso.com
Starting priceSee website (quote-based)
Free planFree trial (limited)
Convoso is dialer-first in a market of platforms. Everything serves the outbound floor: predictive pacing tuned for contact rates, intelligent lead distribution, list penetration tracking and compliance features, plus caller ID reputation tools that protect answer rates. Insurance, home services, solar and legal teams live on it.
Pricing is entirely custom (third-party estimates suggest around $90 per user per month, unverified), and telecom fees stack on top, so budget total cost per seat carefully. Onboarding is sales-led with a demo first. If your business is the phone, the dialing-centric design beats the generalist platforms. Get the full per-seat cost in writing.
What we like- Built specifically for high-volume outbound with predictive pacing tuned for contact rates
- Strong lead management and real-time reporting
- Caller ID reputation tools
Watch out for- No standardized pricing
- Carrier and telecom costs add on top of the per-seat quote
#4
NICE CXone Mpower
Best for: Mid-market and enterprise contact centers needing omnichannel
Visit nice.com
Starting price$135 per agent/month (Essential Suite)
Free planFree trial available
NICE CXone Mpower is the breadth play. Voice, digital channels, quality management, screen recording and workforce management are all native, with the published suite ladder running from $71 (Digital Agent) through $135 (Essential) to $249 (Ultimate) per agent per month. For an enterprise contact center, the completeness is the point.
The AI features most buyers want are bundled only at Ultimate, so mid-tier pricing can surprise. Implementation is typically a multi-week project with a partner. If you need predictive dialing inside a full omnichannel operation with workforce management, shortlist this against Five9 and Talkdesk on total cost.
What we like- Full CCaaS suite with predictive, preview and progressive dialing
- Deep workforce management and interaction analytics
- Scales from small teams to global enterprises
Watch out for- Agent Assist and advanced AI are add-ons below Ultimate
- Suite pricing escalates with modules
#5
RingCentral RingCX
Best for: Mid-size companies wanting one vendor for inbound, outbound and digital
Visit ringcentral.com
Starting price$65 per agent/month (annual prepay)
Free planFree trial available
RingCX is the value all-in-one. At $65 per agent per month on annual prepay you get voice, video, 20-plus digital channels, AI summaries and unlimited domestic inbound and manual outbound calling, deployed in days on RingCentral infrastructure. For a mid-size company consolidating vendors, the price is hard to argue with.
Dialer-first buyers should look closer. Advanced dialer features sit in higher packages, and outbound power users may find Convoso or Readymode more productive. Voicemail drop costs extra. If your outbound is a function rather than the business, RingCX covers it well. If the phone is the business, buy a dialer-first tool.
What we like- Predictive, preview and progressive dialers plus 20-plus digital channels on one license
- RingSense AI for summaries
- Fast deployment, often within days
Watch out for- Voicemail drop is an add-on
- Outbound depth trails dialer-first specialists
#6
Readymode
Best for: US and Canadian outbound call centers dialing at volume
Visit readymode.com
Starting price$199 per license/month billed annually (Starter)
Free planNo (no free version, no free trial)
Readymode's pitch is simple: unlimited outbound minutes, no per-minute charges. For a North American floor dialing hundreds or thousands of leads daily, the flat model removes the telecom anxiety entirely. Up to 20-plus concurrent calls per agent on the predictive dialer, with built-in CRM and compliance tools.
The price and scope are the filters. Starter is $199 per license per month ($239 on monthly billing), iQ is $249 ($299 monthly) with a 5-license minimum, there is no free trial, and calling is US and Canada only. Setup includes 1:1 implementation with zero setup fees. If your floor is domestic and high-volume, the flat minutes justify the seat price.
What we like- Unlimited outbound minutes included under fair use
- Up to 20-plus concurrent calls per agent
- Built-in CRM, compliance tools and real-time reporting
Watch out for- Expensive per seat with no trial
- North America only, no international calling
#7
JustCall
Best for: SMB sales teams wanting cloud calling, SMS and dialing affordably
Visit justcall.com
Starting price$29 per user/month billed annually (Team plan)
Free planFree trial (14 days)
JustCall is the SMB on-ramp done right. Team at $29 per user per month billed annually through Pro Plus at $89 covers cloud calling, SMS, unlimited US/Canada minutes on most tiers, AI transcription and 100-plus integrations. Setup is self-serve in minutes with no long-term contract.
The catch is the predictive tier. The 10-line predictive dialer lives in the SalesPro suite at custom pricing, so predictive buyers talk to sales; standard plans cover power, preview and progressive modes. If power dialing suffices, the standard plans are excellent value. If you need true predictive, price SalesPro before you commit.
What we like- Affordable entry with power dialer from Pro ($49)
- 100-plus integrations and AI call summaries
- Unlimited US/Canada calling minutes on most tiers
Watch out for- Predictive dialer needs the custom-priced SalesPro suite
- 2-user minimum on paid plans
#8
VICIdial
Best for: Cost-sensitive outbound operations with technical staff
Visit vicidial.org
Starting priceFree (open source); managed hosting typically $35-60/seat/month
Free planYes (open source, free forever)
VICIdial is the open-source workhorse of outbound calling. Full predictive dialing, no seat limits, no vendor lock-in, total control over infrastructure, all for $0 in license fees. Managed hosting typically runs $35 to $60 per seat per month versus $150-plus for cloud competitors.
The DIY burden is real. Installation, carrier setup, DNC compliance, spam-label management and upgrades are on you or your host, and the interface shows its age. Setup ranges from hours (hosted) to days (self-hosted). For a cost-sensitive operation with technical staff, the economics are unbeatable. For everyone else, the managed host is the product you are actually buying.
What we like- Full predictive, ratio, preview, progressive and broadcast dialing for $0 in license fees
- No seat limits or vendor lock-in
- Huge community
Watch out for- No vendor support
- Dated interface with DIY compliance and CRM integration
#9
MightyCall
Best for: Small sales teams growing from business calling into predictive dialing
Visit mightycall.com
Starting price$20 per user/month billed annually (Core)
Free planFree trial (7 days)
MightyCall is the growth path. Start on Core ($20) for business calling, climb through Pro ($38) and Power ($54) to Enterprise ($65) where predictive, preview and progressive dialing become available. Local presence dialing, voicemail drop and AI call summaries come along, with HubSpot, Salesforce and Zapier integrations.
Aggressive high-volume floors will outgrow it: this is SMB outbound, not a call-center replacement. But for a small sales team that wants easy calling today and predictive dialing tomorrow without switching vendors, the ladder is the most graceful on this list.
What we like- Simple upgrade ladder from calling to predictive dialing
- 10-line predictive mode with manual pace control
- Local presence dialing and voicemail drop included
Watch out for- Predictive dialing only on the Enterprise tier ($65)
- Not a high-throughput call-center replacement
What to check before you buy a predictive dialer
Start with the dialing modes you actually need. Predictive dialing (multiple lines per agent, algorithm-paced) suits high-volume outbound. Power dialing (one line, auto-advance) suits smaller teams. Preview dialing (agent reviews before dialing) suits complex sales. Do not pay for predictive if power covers your volume.
Then price the total seat. Telecom usage, AI add-ons, CRM integrations and compliance tools are often billed separately: Five9 includes 3,000 minutes, Talkdesk bills telecom on top, Convoso adds carrier costs. Ask for the all-in per-seat monthly cost in writing, including the contract term and renewal uplift. A 36-month term at a good rate beats a 12-month term that doubles.
Compliance: the part buyers skip
Outbound dialing is regulated, and the fines are real. US teams answer to the TCPA and state-level calling rules; the dialer needs DNC list scrubbing, calling-hour controls, consent management and abandonment-rate limits. Every enterprise tool here (Five9, NICE, Talkdesk, Convoso, Readymode) ships compliance controls. The cheaper and open-source options leave more of it to you.
Before you buy, confirm three things: automatic DNC scrubbing against federal and state lists, time-zone-aware calling windows, and abandoned-call rate management for predictive mode. If a vendor cannot demo these, keep shopping. The cheapest dialer gets expensive fast when regulators call.
How we chose
We started with the dialers sales teams and call centers actually evaluate: the enterprise CCaaS platforms, the dialer-first specialists, the affordable SMB tools, and the open-source option. For each candidate we checked the vendor's own pricing page, compared dialing modes and contract terms, and read public reviews on G2, Capterra and practitioner discussion on Reddit. Where a price could not be verified on the vendor's page we wrote "See website" rather than guessing, and third-party rate-card figures are flagged as reported, not confirmed.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between predictive, power and preview dialing?
Predictive dialing calls multiple numbers per agent and paces calls with an algorithm, maximizing talk time for high-volume floors. Power dialing calls one number at a time and auto-advances, suited to smaller teams. Preview dialing shows the contact record before dialing, suited to complex sales where preparation matters.
How much does predictive dialer software cost?
From $0 (VICIdial, self-hosted) to $199 per license per month (Readymode). SMB tools run $20 to $89 per user per month (MightyCall, JustCall), mid-market CCaaS runs $65 to $165 (RingCX, Talkdesk, NICE), and enterprise (Five9) runs $159 per concurrent user per month with seat minimums and multi-year terms.
Do I need to worry about compliance?
Yes. US outbound dialing is governed by the TCPA and state rules covering DNC lists, calling hours, consent and abandonment rates. Use a dialer with built-in DNC scrubbing, time-zone-aware dialing and compliance reporting. Fines per violation make this the most expensive feature to skip.
Can a small team use a predictive dialer?
Yes, but check the minimums. JustCall and MightyCall serve small teams, with predictive on their higher tiers. Five9's 50-seat minimum and Readymode's 5-license minimum exclude very small floors. For under 5 reps, power dialing on a standard plan often delivers most of the benefit.
What integrations matter most?
Your CRM first: every tool here integrates with Salesforce, and most cover HubSpot. Then check call recording storage, analytics exports, and whether AI summaries and transcriptions cost extra. If you run on a specific phone system or helpdesk, confirm the native integration before you trial.
