Your customers call you by clicking on the number or “call us” button, or by dialling the local number presented — without costly operating charges to you.3. You determine how to handle the inbound call
You can greet callers with a personalised IVR menu (based on caller ID or location) or you can route callers to an appropriate agent. You can even record calls for future analysis or training.4. Gain actionable insights
