The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Ameyo no pricing is published anywhere for any deployment model, so budgeting requires a sales cycle and there is no way to sanity-check a quote against a public rate card.; Ozonetel no pricing is published in any usable form, so seat rates, per minute charges, number rental and dialler licences are entirely opaque until a sales process is underway, which makes budget approval slow.
  • They diverge on capability: Ameyo covers Predictive and progressive dialling, Ozonetel covers Owned telecom infrastructure.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Ameyo

  • No pricing is published anywhere for any deployment model, so budgeting requires a sales cycle and there is no way to sanity-check a quote against a public rate card.
  • On-premise deployment means you also buy servers, telephony connectivity, professional services and ongoing administration, and the licence is often the smaller half of the true cost.
  • The Exotel acquisition has moved investment towards the newer XTRM cloud line, which creates a real question about how long the classic on-premise product will receive substantial development.
  • It is engineered around large agent counts in low-cost labour markets, so a twenty-seat Western operation gets an interface and an implementation process designed for a very different scale.
  • Self-service is limited: unlike Talkdesk or Five9 there is no meaningful way to trial, configure and launch without vendor involvement, so time to first call is measured in weeks rather than days.

Ozonetel

  • No pricing is published in any usable form, so seat rates, per minute charges, number rental and dialler licences are entirely opaque until a sales process is underway, which makes budget approval slow.
  • Contact centre cost in India is dominated by per minute telecom charges rather than seat licences, so a low quoted seat rate can hide the majority of the bill in usage that scales with call volume.
  • Feature depth outside voice is thinner than Genesys or Talkdesk, so an organisation prioritising digital-first omnichannel with deep workforce management will find gaps.
  • The product, support model and integration set are shaped around Indian market requirements, and organisations outside India get a smaller partner network and less mature local support.
  • On-premise deployment, one of its main selling points for regulated buyers, brings back infrastructure, upgrade and capacity planning costs that the move to cloud contact centres was meant to remove.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Ameyo: Is Ameyo still a separate product after the Exotel acquisition?

Yes. It is branded Ameyo by Exotel and keeps its own website, product line and roadmap. It has not been folded into the Exotel product.

Ozonetel: Does Ozonetel publish prices?

No. There is no working public rate card, and seat plus usage pricing is negotiated per account.

Ameyo: Can I still deploy Ameyo on-premise?

Yes, and it is one of the few remaining contact centre platforms offering a genuine on-premise install alongside cloud and hybrid.

Ozonetel: Can it be deployed on-premise?

Yes. On-premise and private cloud deployments are offered, which is the main reason regulated Indian financial institutions choose it.

Ameyo: What does Ameyo cost?

It is quote-only. Nothing is published for cloud or on-premise, and on-premise adds infrastructure and professional services on top of licensing.

Ozonetel: What makes it different from a reseller?

Ozonetel operates its own telecom infrastructure in India rather than layering software over a third party carrier.

Ameyo: Where is it sold?

Primarily India and Southeast Asia, with customers in the Middle East and Africa. It is not a mainstream choice in Europe or North America.

Ozonetel: Is voice the only channel?

No. WhatsApp and digital channels route into the same agent queues, though voice remains the strongest part of the product.
