Agents can live chat with website visitors through messages, voice and video calls. They are also notified and allowed to respond to messages sent from Facebook and SMS. In addition, by integrating 3CX to the CRM, personalized responses may be generated. Also, agents are better placed to know who is calling, since 3CX matches caller ID with CRM record. This helps track customer journey and query history for better service resolution.
