Placing an active call on hold

On October 7, 2025, CallRail announced the sunset of Lead Center. Beginning January 27, 2026, Lead Center will be phased out and no longer available in your CallRail account. This process will also occur with the Lead Center mobile app. Users who wish to make outbound communication with customers can either:

  1.   Use CallRail's outbound dialer and Messaging feature for communicating with customers
  2. Work with our team to migrate your outbound communication to RingCentral.
