Convoso
Cloud contact-center dialer for compliance-heavy verticals

Convoso runs a call center. Velora runs a multi-channel benefits motion.

Convoso is the dialer of choice for high-volume outbound shops — predictive dialing, RVM, SMS, and DNC scrubs all in one console. Velora overlaps on the channel layer but inverts the assumption: the buyer is a CFO mid-renewal, the cadence is 90 days long, and email + LinkedIn carry as much load as the phone.

Convoso is a serious cloud contact-center platform. If you run a 30-seat call center dialing 60,000 leads a month — debt collection, lead generation, ACA enrollment season, life insurance — Convoso's predictive dialer, agent disposition shortcuts, and per-state DNC scrub workflow are class-leading. They do this very well.

Velora overlaps with Convoso on three channels (voice / SMS / RVM) and on the compliance gate, but the motion is different. A benefits broker isn't dialing 200 leads an hour; they're working a 5,000-employer book where each prospect is on a fixed renewal date and the right move is a 6-touch multi-channel sequence — email at T-90, LinkedIn at T-75, voice drop at T-60, AI inbound on the callback, SMS at T-45, calendar invite at T-30. Convoso doesn't compose those; it dials them.

On compliance, both platforms route every send through a pre-send gate. Velora's gate (shipped in production) layers internal suppression → state-rule engine (FL FTSA-strict, TX, MD, OK, WA quiet hours + AI disclosure) → producer license + carrier appointment → federal DNC + state DNC + Reassigned Number Database + litigator scrub → EBR + PEWC consent ledger. Each scrub layer is vendor-agnostic: pick DNC.com or Blacklist Alliance or Contact Center Compliance and the same gate runs against any of them. Convoso bundles its own scrub partner; the depth of layered checks is comparable. The key difference is what's on the other side of the gate — a dialer queue (Convoso) or a multi-channel orchestrator (Velora).

Pricing model also diverges. Convoso prices per agent seat with a tiered minute pool — the math works when you have humans dialing all day. Velora is platform pricing — a benefits agency with five producers running mostly automated touches on top of human meetings doesn't fit the per-seat-dialer model. If your team's bottleneck is dialing volume, Convoso is the right tool. If the bottleneck is timing-and-targeting against a 12-month renewal cycle, Velora is the right tool.

Common questions

What brokers ask before switching from Convoso.

We already use Convoso for outbound dialing. Can we add Velora alongside?

Yes. Most benefits agencies that pilot Velora keep their dialer of record (Convoso, Five9, Genesys) for live-agent calling and use Velora for the orchestration layer that fires email + LinkedIn + RVM + SMS around the dial sessions. Velora's events table records every outbound across both stacks; reporting reconciles in one place.

Convoso has its own DNC and TCPA scrub. Why does Velora ship its own?

Convoso's scrub is bundled to its dialer — when you're not dialing, you're not scrubbing. Velora's pre-send gate runs on every channel (email, SMS, RVM, voice, LinkedIn) and on every cadence step, including ones that never touch a phone. The gate's vendor-agnostic interface also lets you pick the scrub vendor (DNC.com, Blacklist Alliance, etc.) independently of the channel provider.

Does Velora replace a predictive dialer?

No. If your motion requires hundreds of dials per agent per day, keep your predictive dialer. Velora's voice channel is for AI inbound qualification on callbacks (the v2 highest-leverage pair: RVM out → AI agent in) and for parallel-dialer outbound on warm replies, not for cold predictive dialing.

How does Velora's Reassigned Number Database check compare to Convoso's?

Both consult RND before dialing a number where consent was captured more than a few months ago. Velora's RND check is wired vendor-agnostic; the gate handles 'reassigned after consent capture date' as a deny condition with a structured reason code in the audit trail. Convoso's is integrated into the dialer agent layer. The compliance posture is similar; the audit-export shape differs.

What about state-by-state TCPA rules — FTSA in Florida, TX HB 4082?

Velora's state-rule engine ships per-state JSON for FL (FTSA-strict, two-party recording, AI-voice disclosure required, no calls before 8am or after 8pm local), TX (HB 4082 framework), MD, OK, WA, and the federal default. The pre-send gate consults this matrix on every voice/SMS/RVM send. Convoso's per-state quiet-hours and disclosure logic is similar — both platforms take this seriously, and both will need updates as new state rules ship in 2026.

Where does Convoso win?

Live-agent dialer productivity, predictive-dial pacing, manager whisper / barge / monitor functions, agent screen-pops, contact-rate optimization, multi-list cycle through, and contact-center BI reporting. Convoso is built for outbound call centers — that's the right tool for that motion. Velora is built for broker-multichannel — different motion, different tool.
