A JustCall alternative for a team that is not a sales floor
JustCall is a dialer for a sales floor. We do not have one, and that is a refusal rather than a gap: prepaid credit plus an auto-dialer is the shape telecom fraud takes.
Keep JustCall
Your team works a list, the dialer is doing the dialing, and calls have to land on a CRM record on their own. Every one of those is load-bearing for an outbound motion and none of them is here.
Choose Airlophone
Your team needs international calling without a licence for every person. You pay only when somebody makes a call.

01What it is
What JustCall actually is
JustCall sits inside a CRM and dials for a sales team. Power dialing, sequences, SMS campaigns, and every call logged against the record it came from. For an outbound team working a list, that loop is the whole job and doing it by hand is not a serious option.
02The model
How JustCall is priced
A licence per rep per month across tiers, with the dialer and the automation on the higher ones. The bill tracks the size of the team rather than the number of calls it makes.
Seat prices change. Check JustCall's own pricing page for its current figure. Airlophone publishes every rate at /rates.
03Where it stops
Where it stops, if the problem is international calling
It is priced per rep, and reps churn.
A seat is a monthly commitment against a headcount that moves. Teams routinely carry licences for people who left and for people who have not started, because the plan is annual and the roster is not.
The dialer is the reason to buy it and the reason for the tier.
The entry plan is a phone with a CRM attached. Compare the tier that has the automation you would actually turn on, not the one at the top of the pricing page.
International minutes are metered on top of all of it.
The licence buys the software. Calling Australia at four in the morning your time is a separate charge, and on an outbound team the minutes are not a rounding error.
04What we are not
What you would be giving up
Airlophone is calling, not a phone system. These are the specific things JustCall does that Airlophone does not, stated before the price rather than after it.
There is no auto-dialer and no power dialer, and there will not be.
Prepaid credit plus instant international dialing plus automation is the single most abused pattern in telecom, and it is the risk that ends a company this size. Refusing it is a deliberate control, not a roadmap item.
Concurrency is capped, so a sales floor cannot dial at once.
The carrier account has a hard ceiling on simultaneous calls and each call uses two legs of it. A handful of people can be on calls together. Twenty reps working a list at the same time is not something this can carry today, and we would rather say so than have you find out in week two.
No CRM integration and no sequences.
Nothing dials from a record, nothing writes back to one, and there is no cadence engine. Calls appear in a history here and export as a CSV, and that is the whole of the integration story.
No SMS campaigns.
A rented number receives texts. Sending is not built, so there is no follow-up message after a missed call and no campaign of any kind.
05What changes
What is different the week after you move
The bill tracks the calling rather than the headcount.
A rep who left last month costs nothing this month, and a rep who starts next week costs nothing until they dial. Nobody carries a licence against a roster that moves.
The expensive corridors stop being the ones you find out about later.
Calling Australia at four in the morning your time is priced on the same published card as everything else, per country and per line type, quoted before the call connects.
You can hand somebody a cap instead of a conversation about their phone bill.
Each person gets a monthly limit enforced when they press Call. It is the control that makes one shared balance safe to give to people you have not worked with before.
07What it costs
What the calling itself costs here
No licence, no seat, no minimum and no commitment. You fund one balance, the team spends from it, and a colleague who made no calls this month costs nothing. Rates for a small team calling prospects and partners abroad, from $0.03 a minute across 221 countries:
| Destination | Landline | Mobile |
|---|---|---|
| United Kingdom | $0.09 | $0.12 |
| Canada | $0.03 | $0.03 |
| Australia | $0.09 | $0.29 |
| Ireland | $0.09 | $0.29 |
| India | $0.19 | $0.15 |
Per minute in US dollars from a US caller ID, billed per minute with part of a minute counting as a full one. Read live from the published card, so this table cannot disagree with what you are charged. A landline and a mobile in the same country are priced apart because they cost different amounts to reach, and the band is resolved from the digits you dial rather than from a question you are asked.
A shared balance, a monthly cap per person enforced when they press Call, and an answer rate per member rather than a call count: see how the team account works, including the five things it deliberately does not do.

09Questions
Common questions
What is a good JustCall alternative for a small team?
If you need the dialer, the alternatives are the other sales dialers, and a simpler tool will cost you the automation that is the point. If what you need is international calling that a few people share, a pay-as-you-go account works: one prepaid balance, no licence per rep, a cap per person, and a published rate for every country. It does no dialing for you and does not touch your CRM.
Does Airlophone have an auto-dialer or power dialer?
No, and it is a refusal rather than a missing feature. Prepaid balance plus international dialing plus automation is the pattern telecom fraud is built on, and the controls that make a prepaid calling product safe are the same controls that make automated dialing impossible. If your workflow needs one, this is not the tool.
How many people can be on calls at the same time?
A handful. The carrier account carries a hard ceiling on simultaneous calls and a bridged call consumes two legs of it, so the practical figure is small and it is a property of the account rather than of your plan. For a support team or a few colleagues calling suppliers this never comes up. For a sales floor dialing in parallel it is a wall, and it is better known now.
Can I export a record of every call?
Yes. The current calendar month exports as a CSV from the call history, with the destination, the duration, the ring time, the outcome and the charge on each row, and an admin gets the whole account rather than only their own calls. Timestamps are ISO 8601 in UTC and amounts are in US dollars, so the file reconciles against the invoice rather than against a local format.
