egor_ukQ: I actually have been waiting for another call tracking product here on Appsumo and was/am happy to see your product now arrive here.
Everything looks just what I need.
But... my issue is that 100 min between two numbers per month is really not enough. And I don't see any code stacking.
Can you guys sweeten this LTD and add more minutes and more numbers and at least allow us to stack codes?
Also, is it possible to create or upload greetings and other voice recordings like after-hours messages, weekend messages, "no one available - leave a message" types or messages?
And two numbers only per plan is also too little!
And can I bring and use my own numbers?
Also, $6/mo for a number? C'mon, you guys! Twilio numbers are 1 dollar/mon and on Bandwidth is $0.50/mo! And the minute is $.0079! And you guys charge 6 cents per minute?! 😳

May 14, 2024A: Hey there,
Thanks for the feedback - it's helpful to hear what you guys think!
I think a more equal comparison would be to CallTrackingMetrics or CallRail where phone numbers are $2.50 and $3.00 respectively while also requiring a subscription of $40+/mo. Comparing us to an underlying API is an apples-to-oranges comparison.
What we're doing with the $6 numbers is basically charging pay-as-you-go prices if you go over your limits which seems fair considering you're only paying a very small one-time fee for lifetime access.
The hard part with AppSumo is people desperately want amazing prices, but are also extremely worried about us honoring the lifetime deal long-term (scroll down a few questions and you'll see someone who has clearly been screwed over by other companies on AppSumo in the past).
If we want to be able to support this deal long-term, we need to make it worth it to us as a company and considering you aren't paying any monthly fees after the initial one-time payment, we need to charge a bit more for excess numbers and minutes after you exceed your limits.
On the bright side regarding stacking, this is definitely something we're evaluating and going to try to submit to AppSumo today or tomorrow, so be on the lookout for stacking options coming within the next few weeks.
Hope you see where we're coming from though and thanks for checking out the product!
Best,
Curran
So, as for the two numbers per plan - can I bring and use my existing numbers or do I have to purchase new ones thru your plan?
You can bring in numbers for free.
Feel free to submit a port request here: https://callscaler.com/port-your-numbers-to-callscaler/
Also, are any SMS included with the plane? White label?
Btw, you can check the PhoneWagon product we had here a few years ago and the plans they offered.

I think Egor was 100% correct. Here was the Phone wagon deal on appsumo.
Phonewagon was later bought by callrail. So the deal worked for both the company and the appsumo clients. I know I would totally but this deal.

Get access to the Double plan for $158 with all the features of the Single Plan along with access to 10 numbers and 1000 minutes per month.
Get access to the Multiple plan for $237 with all the features of the Single plan along with access to 20 numbers, 2000 minutes per month and white-labeling.
Valid Points. Would still like to see a little better pricing (the point of AppSumo) but we definitely want continuity of the product. Maybe a meet in the middle with the higher stacks?
I have to agree with this. The margins on top of their cost is crazy. This deal is only made for those that won't do their homework to find much cheaper solutions. I have 100s of twilio numbers and leverage multiple SaaS products. I won't be coming back to this listing.
