Day 1-2: Discovery & Configuration

  1. Export your data from Phonely — call logs, contacts, and conversation flows
  2. Configure CallSphere with your business knowledge base, hours, and workflows
  3. Set up integrations — connect your CRM, scheduling tool, and payment processor
  4. Define routing rules — how calls should be handled by type and urgency

Day 3-4: Testing & Refinement

  1. Internal testing — your team calls the AI agent to verify responses
  2. Edge case tuning — adjust for industry-specific scenarios
  3. Integration verification — confirm data flows correctly to all connected systems
  4. Escalation testing — verify human handoff works smoothly

Day 5: Number Porting & Go-Live

  1. Port your phone numbers from Phonely to CallSphere (we handle the porting process)
  2. Parallel running — both systems active briefly to ensure zero downtime
  3. Cutover — Phonely deactivated, CallSphere handling 100% of traffic
  4. Monitoring — CallSphere team monitors the first 48 hours post-migration

What You Keep

  • All your existing phone numbers (ported seamlessly)
  • Call history and analytics (exported from Phonely)
  • Customer contact data
  • Business workflow logic (reconfigured in CallSphere)

What You Gain

  • Voice + Chat unified — one platform for phone calls, web chat, SMS, and WhatsApp
  • Flat monthly pricing — no more per-minute billing surprises
  • 57+ languages — serve international customers naturally
  • HIPAA compliance — available with signed BAA for healthcare businesses
  • No engineering required — no-code configuration and managed deployment

Common Migration Questions

Will I lose my phone numbers? No. We port your existing numbers to CallSphere. The process takes 1-3 business days and we coordinate the timing to ensure zero downtime.

Is there a contract lock-in? No. CallSphere offers month-to-month billing with no long-term contracts required.

Can I run both platforms simultaneously? Yes. During migration, we recommend a brief parallel period where both systems are active. This ensures no calls are missed during the transition.

## How to Switch from Phonely to CallSphere: Migration Guide: production view How to Switch from Phonely to CallSphere: Migration Guide is also a cost-per-conversation problem hiding in plain sight. This walkthrough section adds the steps a buyer (or builder) actually has to execute, not just the high-level pitch. Once you instrument tokens-in, tokens-out, tool calls, ASR seconds, and TTS seconds against booked-revenue per call, the right tradeoff between Realtime API and an async ASR + LLM + TTS pipeline becomes obvious — and it's almost never the same answer for healthcare as it is for salons. ## Buyer walkthrough Before signing a pilot, verify five things in this order. **One**, vertical depth — does the provider already have an agent template for *your* vertical (dental, salon, MSP, real estate, behavioral health), or are they pitching a generic chatbot they'll customize? Templates that already exist mean an integrations layer that already exists. **Two**, integrations — your scheduler (Athena, NexHealth, Boulevard, Square Appointments), your CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce), your messaging (Twilio for SMS, AWS SES for email). If any of these are "on the roadmap," your pilot is actually a beta. **Three**, support model — do you get a Slack channel and a named CSM, or a help-desk ticket queue? **Four**, compliance — HIPAA BAA for healthcare, SOC 2 for B2B, PCI scope kept out of the call path. **Five**, time-to-live. CallSphere pilots launch in **3–5 business days** with a **14-day trial, no credit card**. If your provider is quoting 6 weeks of "implementation," that's a red flag — the integrations work should already be done. ## FAQ **How does this apply to a CallSphere pilot specifically?** Setup runs 3–5 business days, the trial is 14 days with no credit card, and pricing tiers are $149, $499, and $1,499 — so a vertical-specific pilot is a same-week decision, not a quarterly project. For a topic like "How to Switch from Phonely to CallSphere: Migration Guide", that means you're not starting from scratch — you're configuring an agent template that's already been hardened across thousands of conversations. **What does the typical first-week implementation look like?** Day one is integration mapping (scheduler, CRM, messaging) and prompt tuning against your top 20 real call transcripts. Day two through five is shadow-mode running, where the agent transcribes and recommends but a human still answers, so you can compare side-by-side. Go-live is the moment your eval pass-rate clears your internal bar. **Where does this break down at scale?** The honest answer: it scales until your tool catalog gets stale. The agent is only as good as the integrations it can actually call, so the operational discipline is keeping schemas, webhooks, and fallback paths green. The platform handles the rest — observability, retries, multi-region routing — without your team owning the GPU layer. ## Talk to us Want to see how this maps to your stack?
