The tel filter creates the well-formed tel: hyperlink automatically.  So where 
as {{"800-COLLECT"|phone2filter}} renders as this in the html response:
  800-2655328
... {{"800-COLLECT"|tel}} renders as this:
  <a href="tel:+18002655328">800-COLLECT</a>

That's the main difference.

django-tel is more about RFC 2806 (tel: urls) than the phone-to-numeric 
conversion.

Excellent question; thanks. I should put this in a FAQ or the README.
