PhoneBurner pricing and buyer guide
Single-line power dialing, with answer-rate tools sold as add-ons
PhoneBurner is a browser-based power dialer with a built-in CRM and post-call automation. Reps call one contact at a time, so it suits teams that put conversation quality ahead of parallel dialing speed.
Official-source research checked October 30, 2026 against PhoneBurner's pricing and power dialer pages. This is not a hands-on test, a rating or a vendor endorsement.
How much does PhoneBurner cost?
PhoneBurner lists three plans: Standard at $140, Professional at $165 and Premium at $183 per user per month billed annually, or $165, $195 and $215 billed monthly. Every plan includes unlimited power dialing. ARMOR spam protection and Connect Scores are listed as add-ons on every plan, and the pricing page does not show their prices.

What is PhoneBurner?
PhoneBurner is a browser-based power dialer with its own CRM, voicemail and email automation, and team reporting. It dials one contact at a time for each rep. When someone answers, the rep can respond straight away, without the connection delay that predictive dialers can create. PhoneBurner's pricing page says it is trusted by 3,000+ customers and names financial services, insurance, mortgage, solar, IT and software among the industries it serves.
PhoneBurner says its power dialer handles up to 80 dials per hour and produces up to 4x more live conversations than manual dialing. Those are vendor claims. We have not tested them, and your result will depend on list quality, phone number reputation, calling windows and rep skill.
Our operator view
A power dialer removes the dead time between calls. It does not fix who you call or what reps say. Before comparing dialers, check how many valid direct dials your list contains and how carriers label your outbound numbers. In our view, those two inputs deserve as much attention as the dialing software.
PhoneBurner features that matter to an SDR manager
Plan placement comes from PhoneBurner's pricing page. Where the page does not show a plan, we say so.
- Two dial modes: pause and preview for pre-call research, or continuous power mode. Every plan includes unlimited power dialing with no per-minute fees.
- One-click dispositions: a disposition can log the call, leave a recorded voicemail, send a follow-up email and update your CRM before the next call starts.
- Built-in CRM: contact records, activity history, custom dispositions, sales cadences and an appointment calendar are listed among its core features. You can also sync with an existing CRM.
- Professional and up: browser softphone dialing, Krisp AI noise cancellation, live call monitoring and coaching, and the open API.
- Premium only: a PhoneBurner number, custom inbound routing, answering callbacks in the app, call transcription with an AI note taker, and SMS. SMS needs A2P 10DLC registration and includes 1,000 outbound messages a month, then $15 per extra 1,000.
- Paid add-ons: ARMOR covers number monitoring, spam flag remediation and answer rate analytics. Connect Scores rate numbers in real time from carrier signals and call patterns so reps can skip numbers unlikely to connect.
- Lead distribution: LeadStream routes leads to agents through shared pools or custom rules.
- Compliance tools: PhoneBurner lists DNC management and time zone restrictions, and says compliance stays each customer's responsibility.
Integrations: PhoneBurner names Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho CRM, Pipedrive, GoHighLevel, Close and Microsoft Dynamics, plus Zapier, webhooks and an open API. Its pricing page lists 100+ integrations. Test sync direction and field mapping with your own CRM before you sign.

Strengths and trade-offs to check
Based on PhoneBurner's published product and pricing information. We did not run hands-on tests.
Strengths
- Single-line design with no connection delay. PhoneBurner's own comparison rates abandoned-call risk as none for its power dialer and high for predictive dialers.
- Unlimited dialing on every plan, so cost does not rise with call minutes.
- Disposition-driven automation reduces manual logging, voicemail and follow-up work between calls.
- A built-in CRM lets a small team start without a separate system.
- Published list prices, monthly or annual billing and a free trial.
Trade-offs
- ARMOR and Connect Scores, the answer-rate tools PhoneBurner promotes most, are add-ons, and their prices are not on the pricing page.
- One line per rep means fewer dials per hour than a parallel dialer, by design.
- Coaching, the browser softphone and the open API need Professional. SMS, transcription and inbound routing need Premium.
- Seats start at $140 per user per month billed annually, so team cost grows with every rep.
- We could not independently verify answer rates, call quality or support quality.

Who PhoneBurner is for
A strong fit for
Teams whose reps call warm leads, inbound follow-ups or relationship-led B2B lists one at a time, and want automation around each call. It also suits small teams that want a dialer and a light CRM without building a contact center.
Look elsewhere if
You need parallel dialing to maximize live connects per rep hour on large cold lists, you need a full inbound contact center, or you want someone else to run the calling program for you.
Questions to ask before you buy
- What do ARMOR, Connect Scores and extra numbers cost for our team size?
- Which plan includes local presence dialing, and how are those numbers provisioned?
- Does our CRM sync both ways, and which fields and call outcomes write back?
- What happens to recordings and contact data if we cancel?
- Can we run the trial on our own list and measure connect rate by number?
Building the calling team is a separate decision from buying the dialer. Our cold calling scripts cover openers and objection handling for whichever tool you choose.
PhoneBurner alternatives: choose the dialing model first
These tools solve different calling jobs. We did not benchmark them for connect rates, call quality or total cost.
- Kixie: its homepage describes a multi-line power dialer that can dial up to 4 leads at a time, ConnectionBoost local presence dialing and business SMS. Compare it if one line per rep is too slow for your lists.
- Orum: its homepage describes an AI sales dialer with parallel dialing and agents that handle voicemail and phone trees. It lists Launch and Ascend plans, priced per user and billed annually. Compare it for high-volume SDR cold calling.
- JustCall and Aircall: also in our directory. Confirm which dialing modes each plan includes before you shortlist them for outbound prospecting.
- SalesHive: our platform includes a one-prospect-at-a-time Power Dialer with live AI suggestions, and our managed cold calling service puts SDRs on the phones for you. This is our own offer, not an independent pick.
