Best Power Dialer Software for Realtors: 6 Picks for 2027

Oct 19, 2026

Pick the dialer type before the brand

A power dialer is calling software that places outbound calls from a contact list in sequence and connects each answered call to an available agent. Most buyers compare brands first, but the category decides more of the cost and compliance work than any single feature. The six products below fall into three groups, and the group you choose narrows the shortlist quickly.

CRM-native calling is a dialer built into the customer relationship system you already run. Follow Up Boss is the example in this guide. Standalone power dialers are cloud phone tools that sit beside your CRM and send call results back to it, and PhoneBurner and Kixie belong in this group. Lead-plus-dialer bundles sell calling together with purchased lists such as expired listings, FSBOs and pre-foreclosures. REDX and Vulcan7 are bundles in their published form. Mojo Dialer is also sold in this space, but its website could not be opened for this guide, so its placement stays provisional.

The short version: if you already have a CRM you like, price its calling add-on before you buy a standalone dialer. If your bottleneck is lead supply rather than dialing speed, compare lead bundles against the dialer alone, because a dialer with no list to call leaves seats idle. The rest of this page shows what each vendor publishes, where that information stops, and what to ask for in writing.

Key Takeaways

  • A power dialer pays off only when your lists are clean, your CRM receives call outcomes, and one named person owns follow-up.

  • PhoneBurner and Follow Up Boss publish per-seat prices on their own pricing pages, so their totals can be checked before any sales call.

  • REDX publishes bundle prices, but its entry plan has no dialer, so calling requires the Connect or Pro plan.

  • Kixie and Vulcan7 publish no prices, so plan for a quote conversation and request line counts and add-on lists in writing.

  • Mojo Dialer's website could not be opened during this research, so this guide prints no Mojo price or feature.

  • Compliance is part of the purchase: do-not-call scrubbing, recording retention and consent handling differ by vendor and by plan.

How we evaluated these tools

We weighted six criteria and used only public information: vendor pricing and product pages, a government registry FAQ, an industry association report, and the help centers of two workflow tools that serve as the do-it-yourself comparison. The weights in Table 1 are our judgment about what matters to a small team buying a dialer. They are not vendor claims or survey results.

CriterionWeight (%)What we looked for on public pages
Dialing mode and line count20Power or multi-line dialing, and lines per agent (1, 3, or up to 4)
Compliance controls20Do-not-call scrubbing, recording retention, and SMS registration

Total100Weights are our judgment, not vendor or survey data

We did not trial any of these products, contact any vendor's sales team, or measure call quality, connection rates or results. Anything here that describes a vendor's speed, connection rate or lead count is a vendor statement and is labeled that way. Where a vendor publishes no price, the tables say "Quote-based." Where we could not open the vendor's site, they say "Not verified."

What each product publishes

Table 2 sorts what each vendor's own page says, cell by cell, so you can see where the published information stops.

"Not stated" means the page we opened did not say it, which is different from saying the feature is missing. Ask the vendor before you assume either way. The line counts and the speed claim in the matrix are cited in the pricing section below.

Pricing checked for six products

Pricing checked October 19, 2026. Table 3 uses only figures read on each vendor's own pricing page, plus our arithmetic where labeled. Quote-based means the vendor's public page shows no price.

The five-seat column multiplies the annual rate by five seats and by 12 months. For Pro and Platform on Follow Up Boss, the base price already covers 10 and 30 users, so that figure is the bundle price rather than a per-seat multiplication. For Grow, the five-seat figure adds the annual calling add-on.

Professional plan price: $165 per user monthly on annual billing according to PhoneBurner (2026). The Standard and Premium rows come from the same page. PhoneBurner includes unlimited power dialing on every tier, but the softphone, open API and live monitoring appear only on the higher tiers, and SMS appears only on Premium.

Follow Up Boss's Grow plan is $69 per user monthly or $58 annual, with calling sold as a $39 monthly or $33 annual per-user add-on. Its Pro plan is $499 monthly or $416 annual for 10 included users, with extra users at $49 monthly or $41 annual. Its Platform plan is $1,000 monthly or $833 annual for 30 users, according to Follow Up Boss. That page also advertises a free trial with no contract.

REDX sells dialing inside bundles. Core is $199 per month with no dialer, Connect is $299 per month with a single-line dialer, and Pro is $349 per month with a triple-line dialer that the page describes as handling up to 300 leads per hour. Annual prices are $1,990, $2,980 and $3,480, and extra users cost $75 each per month on Core and Connect and $99 each on Pro, according to REDX.

Kixie does not publish prices. Its pricing page lists a single-line PowerDialer and a multi-line PowerDialer with up to 4 lines, both quote-based, according to Kixie.

Vulcan7's dialer page shows no price and no plan table. It links to a packages section that did not display figures, and it describes power dialing at up to 80 contacts per hour as a vendor claim, according to Vulcan7.

Mojo Dialer's website could not be opened during our research, so we print no Mojo price, plan or feature. Third-party comparison sites publish Mojo and Vulcan7 figures, but those figures do not come from the vendors, so this guide leaves them out. Treat any number in a third-party guide as a lead to verify, not as a price.

Vendor profiles

PhoneBurner

Best fit: Teams that want unlimited power dialing on every tier and can keep a CRM as the record of truth. The pricing page lists unlimited power dialing and CRM and workflow automation on all three tiers.

Limitations: The entry tier has no softphone, no open API and no live call monitoring, and it keeps call recordings for the shortest period of the three tiers. SMS is available only on the top tier and requires A2P 10DLC registration. Numbers, ARMOR and Connect Scores are sold as add-ons without published prices.

Implementation: Decide early whether you need the open API, because that choice rules out the entry tier. List the dial numbers you need and ask for the add-on prices in writing before you sign.

Primary evidence: PhoneBurner pricing

Follow Up Boss

Best fit: Teams that already work in Follow Up Boss and want calls logged against the contact record. On the higher plans, calling is included, and the pricing page says so.

Limitations: The pricing page never uses the term "power dialing," so confirm whether its calling feature runs sequential or power dialing before you buy. On the entry plan, calling is an add-on charged per seat, so cost rises with every agent. A footnote on the pricing page says many AI features depend on Follow Up Boss calling, which is an added charge on Grow.

Implementation: The API reference documents endpoints to list, create and update call records, so a custom export or no-code connection is possible. It still takes a developer or a no-code tool with API credentials and a named owner.

Primary evidence: Follow Up Boss pricing and API reference for calls

Kixie

Best fit: Teams that want a standalone multi-line dialer and are comfortable working through a quote. The pricing page separates single-line and multi-line PowerDialer plans and sells connection boosting, conversation intelligence and a do-not-call compliance add-on separately.

Limitations: Without a published price, you cannot budget before a sales call. The plan list and the comparison table on the page disagree on whether AI human voice detection is included in the multi-line plan, so get that answer in writing. Compliance tooling is an add-on rather than a default.

Implementation: Ask for the line count per user, the add-on list and the contract term in one written quote. The pricing page we read does not describe a CRM sync path, so ask for that specifically.

Primary evidence: Kixie pricing

Vulcan7

Best fit: Agents who prospect expired listings, pre-foreclosures, FSBOs and investor leads, and who want the list and the dialer from one vendor. The dialer page describes those lead types, daily delivery of fresh leads, a free dedicated number and automatic do-not-call scrubbing.

Limitations: The page publishes no price and no plan table, so a quote is the only route to a number. Its speed, connection and results claims are vendor statements. The testimonials it shows come from individual agents and describe individual results, not typical ones. Because the lists are bundled, you also face a separate decision about whether the lead data is worth paying for on its own.

Implementation: Ask for the contract length, cancellation terms and line count in writing. Ask whether leads and call outcomes can be exported to your CRM, because the page presents the dialer, leads and CRM as one platform without detail.

Primary evidence: Vulcan7 dialer page

REDX

Best fit: Teams that want lead data and dialing in one bundle and will also use skip tracing, mailers or ad tools. The Core plan includes all lead types with insights, skip tracing and an LMS, and the Pro plan adds a triple-line dialer.

Limitations: The Core plan has no dialer, so calling requires Connect or Pro. Extra users carry a monthly charge at every level. The bundle is built around REDX's own LMS, so an existing CRM may need a sync step that the page does not describe.

Implementation: The page lists per-user charges for extra users but does not say how many users each base plan includes, so confirm that count before you compare totals. Ask whether lead lists can be exported in a format your CRM accepts.

Primary evidence: REDX pricing

Mojo Dialer

Best fit: Agents who see Mojo Dialer in comparison guides and want a written license structure before comparing it with the rest of this list. We could not open the vendor's website during this research, so this profile has no vendor price, line count, lead data or contract term.

Limitations: Third-party guides describe per-license billing and separate add-ons, but we did not confirm either on the vendor's site, so treat both as unverified. A per-license model and a per-seat model cost different amounts for the same team, so the comparison is meaningful only after the vendor states its structure.

Implementation: Request a written quote that states how licenses are counted, whether each agent who dials at the same time needs one, and which add-ons are required for call recording and caller ID.

Primary evidence: None verified from the vendor in this research.

Compliance before the first dial

Buying a dialer is the easiest part of a calling program, and compliance is the easiest part to get wrong. United States rules on automated calls and texts to consumers differ by number type, consent type and call purpose, and they have changed in recent years. This section describes what to check in a vendor and what to hand to counsel. It is not legal advice.

Registry search interval: at least every 31 days according to National Do Not Call Registry (2005). That FAQ is dated, so confirm the current interval against the registry's live rules before you set a schedule. The same FAQ says registered numbers must be dropped from call lists, which is the step a dialer's suppression feature has to support.

Compare the compliance controls the vendors publish. PhoneBurner's entry tier keeps call recordings for the shortest period of its three tiers, and its top tier keeps them with no stated limit. Kixie sells do-not-call compliance as an add-on. Vulcan7's page says it scrubs do-not-call numbers automatically. The REDX pricing page we read does not describe a scrub at all. A vendor's silence on a control is a question to ask, not an answer.

Table 4 lines up the compliance controls named above, using only what each vendor's page says.

Here is one configurable design for the list step. US Tech Automations would treat this as a proposed workflow, not a live deployment. The trigger is a new list import into the CRM. The action is to compare each number against the latest registry scrub output and to flag any record whose consent-source field is blank. The output is two files: a suppression list the dialer can read, and an exception list that a named person reviews before any agent dials. The prerequisites are a CRM export that includes the consent-source and do-not-call fields, read access to the scrub output, and a confirmed way to load suppression data into the dialer, because not every vendor on this list documents an import path. The human review point is the list owner, who approves or removes each exception and records the reason.

Follow-up after the call

Dialing is only half of the job. The other half is getting each call outcome into the CRM and acting on the interested ones before the lead goes cold. Writing the text or email that follows each call is a separate purchase, and the writing tools comparison covers that category.

A proposed US Tech Automations design for this step would start from a call record saved with an outcome of interested, either in Follow Up Boss or in a dialer that posts its own records. The action creates a task for the assigned agent and drafts a follow-up text from an approved template, but it does not send the text. The output is a task with the call note attached and a text queued for approval. The prerequisites are an API credential with permission to read calls and write tasks, and, if the dialer is not Follow Up Boss's own, a route for posting call records. Follow Up Boss's API reference lists personId, phone and isIncoming as required fields when creating a call, so the design must supply those three values before it can post a record. The human review points are the agent who approves each text and a weekly check of any record where the consent field is blank.

Build it in Zapier or Make, or buy the workflow?

The alternative most teams should price is a no-code tool. Zapier and Make can move call records between a dialer and a CRM, and both document the controls that matter when a run fails. Zapier's help center describes Errored, Handled error and Scheduled run states, and says a Zap turns off automatically if 95% of its runs error in the last 7 days, with a 24-hour grace period for Team plans, according to Zapier (current help center). Make's overview describes error handlers and error routes, names Rollback as its default error handling, and sets a default of three consecutive errors before a scenario is disabled, according to Make (current help center).

Those tools can support run histories, retries, error branches and audit evidence when they are configured. The buyer still designs and owns the parts that do not come pre-built: observability, meaning who sees a failed run and how fast; idempotency, so a retried run does not text the same lead twice; escalation; access controls on API keys; and maintenance when the CRM or dialer changes its API. A do-it-yourself build is often cheaper to start and harder to keep correct.

A proposed US Tech Automations design could configure those same steps with one difference: the review queue, the stop rule and the alert owner would be specified up front and written into the design, rather than left for whoever maintains the scenario later. The prerequisites match the DIY build: API credentials with write access, a field list agreed with the agent team, and a named owner for each review point. Whether that is worth paying for depends on who will maintain the logic after launch. A team with an in-house developer may reasonably choose to build it.

What a five-agent team pays

Take an illustrative five-agent team that wants calling inside Follow Up Boss. On Grow, the published rates are $58 per user monthly on annual billing plus a $33 calling add-on, and on Pro they are $416 per month for 10 included users, according to Follow Up Boss. At $91 per seat, five agents on Grow cost $455 a month, or $5,460 a year. The same five agents on Pro pay the $416 base, or $4,992 a year, so Pro costs $468 a year less than Grow for this team. Pro's included seats also mean a sixth through tenth agent adds no seat charge, while each agent added to Grow adds $91 a month. For the call data, the API reference lists GET /calls, and its example response returns a _metadata object, with _metadata.total giving the record count, beside the calls list.

Who this is for

This guide fits a broker, team lead or operations manager at a small real estate business who already has a CRM, a steady lead source and one person who can own the calling process. It is less useful if your main gap is lead supply. In that case, buy or build the list first and come back to the dialer.

The 2026 NAR Member Profile feature sheet is a useful check on team size. Typical REALTOR team: 31 transaction sides in 2025 according to NAR (2026), compared with nine transaction sides for the typical individual REALTOR. Teams that generate more transactions also have more calls to route, which makes outcome logging and shared suppression lists more valuable.

Red flags: no named person owns consent and do-not-call records, your lead source cannot be exported, or the vendor will not put a line count and a price in writing.

If your lead spend runs through paid ads, the campaign pacing recipe shows how to catch underspend before month-end. If a brokerage's marketing staff writes outreach for several agents, the agency writing tools guide is the next place to look.

Decision checklist

  • Confirm whether your CRM's calling is a true dialer or click-to-call, and whether it is an add-on.

  • Get the line count per agent in writing from every vendor on your shortlist.

  • Ask whether each agent who dials at the same time needs a separate license or seat.

  • Get the do-not-call scrub and recording retention terms in writing.

  • Confirm the export or API route that carries call outcomes back to your CRM.

  • Name the person who approves each follow-up text and each list exception.

  • Compare total cost at your real seat count, not the list price for a single user.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Buying a dialer before the list is clean.

  • Treating "unlimited" calling as unlimited texting. PhoneBurner's SMS is limited to its top tier and requires 10DLC registration.

  • Comparing a per-user price with a per-license quote.

  • Skipping the recording retention check until a complaint arrives.

  • Letting an automation send texts without a person approving them.

  • Assuming a vendor's connection claim holds for your list and your area.

Questions buyers ask

Is a power dialer worth it for a solo agent?

Only if your call volume keeps the queue full, so check your own call logs before you pay for a seat. A solo agent with a small list may find that a CRM's built-in calling covers the work.

Which vendors on this list publish prices?

PhoneBurner and Follow Up Boss publish per-seat prices on their pricing pages, and REDX publishes bundle prices. Kixie and Vulcan7 publish none, and Mojo Dialer could not be checked.

Does Follow Up Boss include calling on every plan?

No. Calling is an add-on on Grow and is included on Pro and Platform, as its pricing page shows.

Can these dialers send texts?

Several of them do. Follow Up Boss lists two-way texting on Grow, Pro and Platform, and its Pro and Platform plans include unlimited calling and texting, while calling is a paid add-on on Grow. Kixie lists text messaging and team SMS on all three of its plans. PhoneBurner limits SMS to its Premium tier and requires A2P 10DLC registration. Vulcan7's dialer page says it sends SMS and email in one click but gives no plan detail. REDX's pricing page lists no SMS feature, and Mojo Dialer could not be checked.

Do I need a lawyer before I start calling?

Yes, for your state's rules and for the consent records your team keeps. This guide does not provide legal advice.

When NOT to use US Tech Automations: a custom workflow is the wrong purchase if you call only a few contacts a week, because a CRM's own calling or a standalone dialer trial will be simpler to run. It is also the wrong purchase if click-to-call with logging already meets your needs, since your CRM's calling may cover that without any build. And if your CRM or dialer exposes no API or export, a workflow has nothing to read, so a manual call log is the honest choice until that changes.

Decide this week

Start by choosing the dialer type, then request written terms from the vendors in that group. For Kixie and Vulcan7, that means a quote that states line counts, contract length and add-on prices. For PhoneBurner, Follow Up Boss and REDX, the published tables are a starting point, and the checklist covers the gaps they leave. Keep Mojo Dialer on the shortlist only if the vendor confirms its license structure in writing.

If you want to see how a proposed workflow would handle your list, call and follow-up steps, see how US Tech Automations configures this, and bring the field names from your CRM export.
