Switching

How to switch from JustCall.

Moving off JustCall means porting every business number, re-creating auto attendants, ring groups and voicemail, reconnecting CRM and help desk integrations, re-registering business texting and setting up desk phones. Port numbers in a quiet period and keep the old service until porting completes. Run one team on each shortlisted phone system for two weeks, testing call quality, mobile apps and CRM logging.

Switching checklist
  1. Export a sample of your JustCall data and test an import into the new product.
  2. List the automations, integrations and permissions you would need to rebuild.
  3. Compare total cost for your real seat count, including add-ons and onboarding fees.
  4. Pilot with one team before a full cut-over.
  5. Check contract terms, renewal dates and notice periods with JustCall.
