Read this before you quote the number. ResponseiQ publishes in pounds and excludes VAT; the dollar figures here are converted at the rate on our pricing page and are approximate. A credit is its unit of a callback. Its entry tier is £59 a month for up to 40 credits, which is below the lowest volume shown here — under 40 callbacks a month, that is the plan to price against. Unlimited agents on every tier is a genuine advantage where LimeCall caps seats.

What LimeCall Has That ResponseIQ Doesn't

Four capabilities that make LimeCall the more complete platform for modern sales teams.

SMS & WhatsApp — ResponseIQ is phone-only

ResponseIQ handles phone callbacks only. LimeCall adds SMS and WhatsApp, so you can reach leads on their preferred channel — not just the phone.

Lead Distribution — Absent in ResponseIQ

ResponseIQ doesn't route leads to the right rep. The LimeCall lead distribution engine routes by skill, territory, availability, or round-robin — automatically.

Virtual Numbers in 40+ Countries

ResponseIQ has no virtual number offering. LimeCall provides local numbers in 40+ countries so your callbacks look local to prospects — improving answer rates.

Try It Before You Commit

The LimeCall 14-day free trial needs no credit card, so you can put the widget on your site and see real callbacks before you pay for anything.
