CTI for Oracle CRMEnhance your customer interaction, service, and satisfaction with CRM++ Computer Telephony Integration for Oracle CRM

Are you still manually dialing telephone numbers, looking up contacts, and capturing telephone call information by hand? Moreover, which sounds better? “Who is this?” or “Thank you for calling us Mark!” Clearly, the latter.

In business, every call you make and receive counts. Too much information is lost because it is not extracted effectively from phone calls, and thus the salespeople miss huge opportunities to get strong insights about who they are calling. So, it is indeed very important to equip your sales reps and agents with the right resources – tools, and information to interact with your customers.

Your CRM is where data lives, and the more data in the CRM, the more insight and power you have as a business. So, it makes sense that when your telephone rings, your CRM knows about it, who it is, who it spoke to, and how long it spoke. A perfect sync between your CRM and the phone system is just what you need so you can stop juggling and start managing your calls smartly from CRM.

Integrating Call/Contact Center Telephony Infrastructure with your CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software gives you tools to manage customer connections in real-time. The advantages of this integration are robust communication management, including accurate information logging, reduced data loss, increased employee efficiency and speed, and more.
