Landing Platform vs Dialpad: calls joined to your CRM

Put the phone to work on the pipeline, not beside it.

Dialpad is an AI-powered business phone and contact centre platform, priced per user with seat minimums by plan. Landing connects calls to the business: every form rings your own line and bridges the lead, SMS runs in playbooks, and the whole customer sits on one record.

Landing suits you if

  • You want web enquiries turned into calls automatically
  • You want calls, meetings and deals on the same record as marketing and service
  • You want one system for the team, not one more per-seat bill

Where the phone bill sits apart.

A phone platform connects the call. The business around it is elsewhere.

Another per-seat bill

Every user is another phone licence, on top of the CRM, the helpdesk and the marketing tool.

Forms still wait

An enquiry from your website still waits for a person to see it and call.

The record is split

Calls, transcripts and summaries sit in the phone platform and sync to a CRM you run separately.

Landing Platform vs Dialpad, line by line.

Landing turns enquiries into calls and keeps every team on one customer record. Here is how that lines up.

Plan tags show where a feature starts on Landing: Core, Growth or Scale. Dialpad details reflect its publicly available plans as of 2026; check current details on its own site.

What it costs, side by side.

Dialpad charges per user, per month, with seat minimums that rise by plan and AI agents priced on credits. Landing charges full price only for the people who work in it every day, and SMS and AI come from one shared credit pool.

Switching is our job, not yours.

We move you over one tool a month, against success criteria we agree with you up front. You don't pay until we prove each one is ready.

Step 1

We map your stack

Show us Dialpad and the tools it feeds: the CRM, the helpdesk, the forms. We agree what moves and what "ready" means before you commit.

Step 2

We connect and move

We point the callback at your business line and verify each brand's caller ID. Your contacts, deals and history move as part of the switch.

Step 3

You sign it off

Billing starts only when we have shown it works against the criteria you set. Then we move the next tool, one a month.

Free monthsEvery £1,000 a month you switch off earns a free month, up to three.
Billing starts when it's readyWe prove the switch works before your first invoice.
OnboardingOne month's fee, from £500, paid when your first switch is signed off.
Price lockedYour yearly price is locked for two years.

But Dialpad runs our phones.

Fair. These are the questions teams ask about calls on Landing.

Does the callback work with the line we already have?

Yes. It rings your existing business line, or each brand's own number, and connects the lead the moment someone answers.

Where do call and meeting notes end up?

On the deal. The notetaker joins Teams and Google Meet calls, matches speakers to contacts, files the summary and turns action items into tasks.

Can support work from the same record?

Yes. One inbox for email and live chat, with deals, orders and history beside every ticket, and AI answers from your help centre on Growth.

How are SMS and AI charged?

From one shared credit pool that each Builder seat adds to, so there is no separate per-seat add-on for either.

Taking notes by hand?

“We were running PR, social scheduling and the rest of our marketing across half a dozen tools that never talked. Now we plan, schedule and measure from a single screen.”
