Let Linkus handle these situations. Linkus allows you to seamlessly transfer the call from your desktop to your mobile phone, or vice versa, without interrupting the calls.
Today’s businesses use CRM platforms to keep track of their interactions with prospects and customers. To integrate your CRM system with a business phone system means putting your data and conversation in one place, thus you can expect improved efficiency and increased customer satisfaction.
Linkus UC Softphone can be integrated with popular CRM platforms, such as Zoho CRM, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Google Contacts. When a CRM contact calls you, Linkus will pop up the call with contact details, and the call logs will be recorded in the CRM system. Also, when receiving a call from an unknown number, a new contact will be created automatically in your CRM systems.
VoIP CRM integration is great assistance especially to sales and support agents. The pop-up contact info saves the agent time and allows them to anticipate customer needs quickly to provide personalized service.
Gone are the days when joining a conference call means sitting at your desk with the desk phone to wait for the start time. Besides, many businesses nowadays prefer using their corporate phone systems for conferencing instead of 3rd party apps because it could be a hassle to get every employee to download another app on their mobile phones.
With Linkus UC Softphone, you can start an instant meeting anywhere anytime using your mobile phone and invite any members you want to the conference. Linkus will immediately make calls to the invited members who can enter the meeting just by picking up the call. Up to 9 participants are supported on an ad hoc conference call.
