Bling

What is Bling?

Bling is a cloud business phone and customer communication platform built around a CRM, with AI features added on higher plans. It provides a US or Canadian local number, unlimited call recordings, IVR, live call transfer, call queuing, SMS and text automation, a unified inbox that brings in email and social messages, and a ticketing system. The Gold plan adds Bling AI - Basic, and Enterprise adds Bling AI - Advanced, an AI Call Coach and an AI-assisted sales dialer. Integrations include HubSpot, Salesforce and Zapier, along with Google Calendar, Calendly and Outlook 365. Its phone system is built on Twilio, and numbers can be ported in. Pricing is per user per month: Basic is listed at $19.99, Gold at $21.58 per user per month billed $259 annually, and Enterprise has no listed price. Add-ons such as MMS, international calling and bulk SMS are priced separately.
