The subject "Make a Call" starts a telephone call from the computer. This requires the necessary facilities and a connection to a PBX.
The screen uses Computer Telephony Integration (CTI). CTI connects a PBX with a computer, so that the computer manages the telephone calls.
Using CTI has the following advantages:
- Personal and rapid approach of the customer. The customer is immediately recognised by the telephone number. With a report of unanswered calls it is also possible to call customers back the same day. This service enhances a customer-friendly image.
- Efficiency through time savings. All customer information is instantly available, so the interview time is reduced. Outgoing calls are made with a mouse click from Invantive, which makes entering telephone numbers unnecessary.
- Comfort and stress reduction. For incoming calls, a popup shows all relevant information about the relation. Additional information can be added during the interview. The notes can be stored and consulted at the next contact.
- Cost savings. The use of staff can be adjusted at peak times. The telephone traffic is fully registered. Dialling from your PC and using the automatic popups saves a considerable amount of time, and that means cost savings.
- Better accessibility. The accessibility of your company is best when using CTI. No long waiting times thanks to efficient communication.
The entry fields have the following meaning:
- "Telephone": The telephone number.
