Vicidial® vs eTollFree: What’s the Real Cost of Doing It Yourself?

Vicidial® is open-source, yes—but “free” doesn’t mean easy or cheap. Between setup time, server maintenance, and integration costs, self-hosting Vicidial® is a project most small teams underestimate.

We’ve hosted Vicidial® hundreds of times—and we’ve seen the same pain points over and over. That’s why we built a better way.
