Telephony Manager

Description:
Many business use Microsoft® Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software to manage customer account information and make informed business decisions. An Inter-Tel Presence tool, Telephony Manager links an Inter-Tel communications platform to Microsoft CRM so your business can build customer loyalty, collaborate effectively with team members and make informed business decisions.

Telephony Manager automatically links incoming customer calls to a company’s MSCRM database, via Automatic Number Identification (ANI)—screen-popping customer information to sales and support personnel. Employees immediately have the customer information they need to provide superior customer service. Telephony Manager also enables users to convey their current availability to fellow colleagues for better collaboration and workflow. Additionally, the integration allows employees to transfer, conference or record the call from the MSCRM interface.
