Telephony

In BRIX, you can configure integration with IP telephony providers to make and receive calls from customers, as well as store and analyze call data.

Telephony is available when you activate one of the paid CRM solutions, which includes BRIX Communication Management solution.

After purchasing a license, you can do the following:

  • Identify customers by phone number when receiving a call, as well as display call data in the customer's page.
  • Track missed calls with the help of alerts.
  • Listen to recordings of telephone conversations.
  • Keep statistics on calls in the Telephony workspace:
    • The Calls app stores data on incoming and missed calls as separate items. Their pages contain client data, sales rep's notes, call recording, call duration, leads and deals related to the contractor, etc.
    • The Call Log page stores information about calls in a table. You can search for call records by specific parameters. Sales reps can track their call data and sales managers can monitor employee performance. The call log can also be added to app forms as a widget, such as a lead or deal page.
  • Customize incoming, outgoing, and missed call pages. The system administrator sets the appearance of the call notification. They can specify what data about the client to show on the page and what actions to make available to the sales rep: create an event in the calendar, CRM task or note on the call page, start a business process, reassign a call, etc.
  • Create call summary page. The system administrator customizes a form that the sales rep can open from the call page. It can display additional data about the work with the client, for example, related leads, deals, requests to technical support, etc.
