CallRail alternatives: 11 call tracking tools compared

Advertisers look for a CallRail alternative when the plan ladder stops matching what they use: they want a lower entry fee, billing per answered call rather than per minute, a vendor based in their own country, or a clearer statement about taking their numbers with them. The usual moves are to a cheaper US tracker, to a regional specialist in the UK or Australia, or to a platform built for scoring calls.

Short answer: Looking for a replacement for CallRail? AvidTrak, WhatConverts and Nimbata come first in our call tracking ranking. Where a category has smaller vendors worth recommending, they occupy the first three places and the big brands come below them. Start with AvidTrak if you want the lowest monthly fee for a handful of numbers. Each of the 11 alternatives sits in Best Call Tracking Software in 2026 and is described against CallRail.

Vendors can pay for more visibility on this website, for example a higher place in a ranking or more room on a page. Commercial relationships can also affect which products we feature and how prominently. Every vendor link is marked the same, whatever the arrangement behind it. How that works.

CallRail

#5 of 14 in our call tracking ranking

  • Pricing: Monthly plan with bundled numbers and minutes, overage published; 14-day trial

  • Not for: Campaigns needing local numbers across Europe, Asia or Latin America

Why buyers look past CallRail

  1. 01

    The price steps with the features you need

    CallRail lists Lead Tracking at $50 a month with five local numbers and 250 minutes, Lead Tracking Complete at $95 with form tracking, Lead Conversion at $150 with transcript analysis and sentiment, and Lead Conversion Complete at $195. A business that wants forms and call analysis together lands on the top tier, and overage is charged on top, for example $3 for an extra local number.

  2. 02

    Usage is metered inside a bundle

    Each plan carries a fixed allowance of numbers, minutes and text messages, and the pricing page prints overage per unit: local minutes at $0.05 (one table on the page shows $0.06), toll-free minutes at $0.08, texts at $0.03. The bundle is predictable for small volumes, but a busy campaign pays per unit once it passes the allowance, and the page itself says fees can change with notice.

  3. 03

    Sold in four countries, exit terms unclear

    CallRail says it is available in the US, Canada, the UK and Australia, with separate pricing pages for the last two. Its public pricing page does not describe what happens to numbers if you leave, and its terms page would not load for our automated checks. If portability matters, ask in writing before you start.

CallScaler

Not stated by the vendor · Published

WildJar

Australia · Published

WildJar started in Sydney and prices by country. Its Australian list shows an all-inclusive Starter at A$150 a month with four numbers, 500 minutes, AI transcription and dynamic number insertion, so there is no usage bill. White labelling is offered on a separate plan view. Cancelling takes 30 days' notice, and growth past Starter moves you to a plan with usage.

Switch from CallRail if you are in Australia, New Zealand or the UK and want one flat bundle.

Which alternative for which situation

  1. 01

    You want the cheapest way to track a few numbers

    AvidTrak: Starter is $15 a month with five numbers and 500 minutes, and the trial runs 14 days without a card.

  2. 02

    Your sales calls are long and per-minute billing is the problem

    Nimbata: It bills per answered call, whatever the duration, and the Entry plan has no base fee.

  3. 03

    You hold many numbers and each monthly number fee adds up

    CallScaler: Local numbers are $0.50 a month, against $3 for an extra local number at CallRail, on a $65 plan.

  4. 04

    You are a UK advertiser who wants a local vendor

    Mediahawk: Starter is £199 a month (£179 annual) with onboarding included, and speech analytics cost £0.04 a minute.

  5. 05

    You score agent calls and want to pay only for the analysis you run

    Convirza: Starter is $29 a month, and transcription and standard scoring are $0.02 a minute each.

04

When CallRail is still the right choice

CallRail is easy to price at small volumes: the entry plan prints its numbers, minutes and texts, and every overage is listed. It names a broad set of integrations, including Google Ads, Meta, Microsoft Ads, GA4, HubSpot, Salesforce, Jobber, ServiceTitan and Zapier, offers a BAA for healthcare customers via sales, and includes API access on all plans (free up to 1,500 calls a month). Staying makes sense if your volume fits a bundle and you use those integrations.

05

What moving off CallRail involves

  1. 01

    Ask about number portability first

    Your tracking numbers are printed on ads, listings and websites. Before you leave, confirm in writing whether each number can be ported out and what it costs. CallScaler charges $10 a number to port out, while CTM states that porting away is free. Keep the old account open until the port completes.

  2. 02

    Rebuild integrations and call flows

    Dynamic number insertion, ad-platform links and CRM mappings are configured per account, so expect to recreate them. Run old and new snippets side by side on a few landing pages for a week and compare call counts before you switch the rest.

  3. 03

    Export recordings and history

    Download recordings, transcripts and lead data before cancelling, as an annual plan is paid upfront for 12 months. Check how long your new vendor stores recordings, because your own records may need to cover a longer period.

06

Questions about replacing CallRail

6 answers
What does CallRail cost?

On the pricing page we read, Lead Tracking is $50 a month, Lead Tracking Complete $95, Lead Conversion $150 and Lead Conversion Complete $195, with a 14-day trial and no card required. A yearly plan is described as saving up to 10%, without listed prices.

Which tracker has the lowest entry price?

AvidTrak lists Starter at $15 a month, Convirza Starter is $29, WhatConverts starts at $30 and Nimbata Pro at $39, with Nimbata's Entry plan at $0 plus usage. Plans differ in what they include, so compare features, not only the fee.

Is there a tracker that bills per call instead of per minute?

Yes. Nimbata bills per answered call, and Infinity charges a fixed amount per call on top of its monthly fee. Both make long conversations cheaper than metered minutes.

Is there a UK or Australian vendor?

Mediahawk and Infinity are British, and WildJar began in Sydney. CallRail also runs UK and Australian pricing pages, but these three are headquartered there.

Can I keep my phone numbers?

It depends on the vendor. CTM says it charges nothing to port numbers away, CallScaler charges $10 a number. We found no port-out statement on CallRail's pricing pages.

Which option is for scoring calls rather than just tracking them?

Convirza prices scoring, sentiment and topic analysis per minute, and Invoca sells conversation analytics on a quote basis. CallRail's own Lead Conversion plans include transcript analysis and sentiment.
