Built by someone who made 100,000 cold calls first.

Five at a Time is a parallel dialer made in Calgary. The company behind it also makes DialSheet, and both exist because their founder spent years on a sales floor listening to phones ring.

Abhi Chawla, founder

Abhi made more than 100,000 cold calls as an SDR at Bolster, Jobber and Folks HR, then ran an SDR agency that made them for other companies. On one line at a time, most of a calling day goes to ringing, voicemail greetings and numbers that are no longer in service.

Parallel dialers fix that. The best-known ones are sold through a demo, with no price on the page and a minimum number of seats: Orum’s pricing page says nine. So Abhi built two that a single rep can buy.

One company, two dialers

Each is built to be the best at its end of the market, and they compete with each other on purpose. We would sooner lose a customer to our other product than to someone else's.

DialSheet

The best dialer for a small business.

  • Free for one person. $29 a seat a month with parallel dialing.
  • Runs on your own Twilio account, so you pay Twilio for the calls and set it up yourself.
  • For a rep or a small team that wants the lowest bill and does not mind some setup.

Five at a Time

The best parallel dialer.

  • $150 a seat a month. Five lines, 2,500 minutes and your own numbers come in the seat.
  • Nothing to connect. We run the numbers and the carrier, and check every business before it dials.
  • For reps who dial all day and want to open a list and start.

How we write about other dialers

This site compares us with Nooks, Orum and others. A company comparing itself to rivals deserves suspicion, so these are the rules those pages follow.

  1. A competitor’s number comes from the competitor.

    We read their own pricing page, terms or help centre, link it, and print the day we read it. Where a company publishes no price, we say so and name whoever reported one.

  2. We say where we lose.

    Every comparison names the buyer who should pick the other product. We have no CRM sync, no unlimited plan and no calling outside the US and Canada, and the pages say it.

  3. No ratings we do not have.

    There are no star ratings, review counts or customer logos on this site, because we have not earned any yet. When real ones exist they will link to where they were written.

  4. We are not neutral, and we do not pretend to be.

    We sell Five at a Time and DialSheet. When a page recommends either, it says we make it.

  5. Wrong gets fixed.

    Prices change and we miss things. Write to us with the page and the line and we will correct it and change the date.
