Dialpad is committed to enhancing collaboration through innovative products powered by advanced communications AI. Recent updates include significant changes to the Manual Sync Contacts feature, affecting users who sync contacts from productivity suites like G Suite and Office 365, as well as email services such as Hotmail, Exchange, or Outlook. The key change is that syncing from Hotmail, Exchange, or Outlook will no longer be supported. Instead, Google and Microsoft will be the only sources for remote contact syncing. Existing contact sources will automatically disconnect, and users will need to reconnect using either Google or Microsoft to continue syncing. To do this, users should navigate to Contact Sources, select the appropriate option, and connect. This update was released in February 2025, aiming to streamline the contact syncing process for Dialpad users.
We’re on a mission to transform how the world works together, and our team works around the clock designing groundbreaking, truly unified products — all powered by the most advanced communications Ai in the world!
We're always rolling out product updates containing feature improvements, and we're making some major changes to our Manual Sync Contacts features.
Who will this impact?
All Dialpad users who manually sync their contacts using productivity suites such as G-Suite and Office 365 or email services such as Hotmail, Exchange, or Outlook.
What is changing and why?
We're changing how contact sources sync with Dialpad.
As part of these changes, syncing contacts from email services such as Hotmail, Exchange, or Outlook will no longer be supported. Instead, Google and Microsoft will serve as the only supported sources for remote contact syncing.
Once these changes take effect, any existing contact sources will automatically disconnect and to continue syncing your contacts, simply reconnect using either Google or Microsoft.
To sync your contacts with Google or Microsoft, head to Your Settings.
Navigate to Contact Sources
Select Add a contact source
Select Office 365 contacts or Google contacts
Select Connect
When will this be released?
This feature was released in February, 2025.
