The short version

  • Only Customerly has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Customerly usage-based pricing of 0.50 EUR per conversation can become expensive at scale; 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: Customerly covers Live chat, 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.

Customerly

  • Usage-based pricing of 0.50 EUR per conversation can become expensive at scale
  • Limited to 11-50 employees according to company size metrics

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.
