The short version

  • Only Webex has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Default pricing is not published and the reported structure is a monthly platform fee before any seats, so a small team pays a meaningful minimum regardless of volume and the tool only makes economic sense at some scale.; Webex listed on UK G-Cloud at £405 to £1,500 per unit per day for Cisco Webex Contact Centre, via reseller Node4 Ltd
  • They diverge on capability: Default covers Inbound routing, Webex covers Video meetings.

Where each one falls short

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

Default

  • Pricing is not published and the reported structure is a monthly platform fee before any seats, so a small team pays a meaningful minimum regardless of volume and the tool only makes economic sense at some scale.
  • Seats are split into user seats and routing seats at different prices, which makes headcount planning awkward and means an organisation can be surprised by which roles turn out to need the expensive kind.
  • Enrichment is credit metered, so cost rises with inbound volume exactly when the business is doing well, and a spike in form fills is also a spike in the bill.
  • Consolidating routing, enrichment, scoring and scheduling into one vendor puts a single point of failure between a demo request and a sales representative, which is the highest value path in the business.
  • The vendor offers budget to buy out incumbent contracts, which is effective marketing but tells you switching costs in this category are high in both directions, including out of Default later.

Webex

  • Listed on UK G-Cloud at £405 to £1,500 per unit per day for Cisco Webex Contact Centre, via reseller Node4 Ltd

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Default: What does Default replace?

Typically a scheduler, a lead routing tool, an enrichment provider and part of a workflow automation layer.

Default: Is pricing published?

No. It is quoted, and reported structures involve a monthly platform fee plus separate user and routing seats plus metered enrichment credits.

Default: Does it replace the CRM?

No. It sits in front of the CRM, routing and enriching records and keeping them clean, and it writes to Salesforce or HubSpot.

Default: Is it worth it for a small team?

Rarely. The platform fee before seats means the economics work when you are retiring several existing subscriptions.
