Aloware’s power dialer helps teams handle high-volume calling while keeping full control over workflows. Its settings shape how your team engages with contacts, manages follow-ups, and organizes calls efficiently.

Note: If your account doesn’t include power dialer, contact your CSM to upgrade. This guide will help you get started.

When configured properly, power dialer keeps calls flowing, ensures missed contacts are followed up automatically, maintains accurate records, and lets you adapt campaigns to different goals, whether lead generation, customer support, or sales.


Accessing power dialer settings

To configure your Power Dialer, go to Account > PowerDialer Settings in Aloware.

You can adjust key options such as the default caller line, redial behavior, triggers, session settings, and Master Control to tailor the power dialer to your team’s workflow and campaign goals.

Key power dialer settings

Default power dialer line

The default line (Caller ID) determines which number appears when agents make power dialer calls. Agents can select this line individually, but having a default ensures consistency across your campaigns. This avoids confusion for contacts and keeps your communication professional and recognizable.

Master control

Master Control restricts certain Power Dialer actions to admins only. For example, agents cannot manually add or clear tasks, admins maintain centralized control. This is especially useful for large teams or regulated campaigns, where consistency and compliance are critical.

Redial settings

Redial settings dictate how the system handles contacts who don’t answer the first call. You can:

  • Set the number of redial attempts

  • Define the timing between attempts

  • Specify dispositions that trigger follow-up actions

  • Integrate SMS follow-ups automatically

By fine-tuning these parameters, you make sure no leads slip through the cracks and increase your overall contact rates.For detailed instructions, see our power dialer redial settings guide.

Remove manually dialed contacts

If a contact is called manually elsewhere on the platform, Aloware automatically removes them from the Power Dialer queue. This prevents duplicate calls, saves agent time, and keeps your reporting accurate.

Open time and close time

Set open and close times to define when the Power Dialer can operate during the day. This ensures calls happen only within appropriate hours, helping your team comply with regulations and respecting customer availability.

Power dialer triggers

Triggers automate actions based on call outcomes or contact activity. Common examples include:

  • Initiating workflows when a call is placed

  • Applying or removing tags on contacts

  • Enrolling contacts in sequences for follow-ups

  • Disposing of contacts and removing task tags

Using triggers reduces repetitive manual work and ensures consistent follow-up, so agents can focus on meaningful conversations instead of administrative tasks.

Power dialer session settings

Session settings control how agents experience the Power Dialer during campaigns.

  1. Navigate to Account > Power dialer settings > Power dialer session settings

  2. Public settings option - apply a unified configuration for your team to standardize workflows

  3. Warm-up periods - adjust the time between calls based on workflow needs:

    • Minimal or no warm-up - maximizes call volume for rapid sessions

    • Short warm-up (1–2 seconds) - gives agents time to leave notes and prepare for the next call

Optimizing these settings ensures smooth call flow while maintaining productivity and accurate data.

Best practices for power dialer

Align settings with your campaign goals by adjusting redial attempts and session timing for sales, support, or follow-ups. Use triggers to automate repetitive tasks, saving agents time and reducing errors. Regularly review call outcomes to fine-tune settings and improve engagement. For larger teams, Master Control helps maintain consistent workflows and smooth operations.
