What’s the biggest challenge you’ve faced when implementing a smart dialer?
We’re in the process of upgrading our call system to include a smart dialer, but I keep hearing mixed experiences about the setup phase. Some teams say the transition is smooth, while others complain about endless integration issues with CRMs, data mismatches, and agent training hurdles. For those who’ve already gone through it — what was your biggest challenge during implementation? Was it the technology itself, or more about getting people comfortable with the new workflow?

Integration was definitely the hardest part for us. Getting the smart dialer to sync perfectly with our existing CRM took a few trial runs, but once everything was connected, the improvement was immediate. The vendor’s support team helped a lot during rollout. If you’re planning your own transition, I’d suggest reading this guide: https://smartdialer.org/. It covers practical steps for implementation, avoiding downtime, and training staff efficiently. It saved us a lot of headaches.
