Important Benefits Of Integrating Freshworks CRM With CZ Bar

In simple terms, a computer telephony integration or CTI is a technology that enables a computer to interact with telephony systems. They allow users to perform all telephony related tasks from their desktop. CZ Bar the CTI offering from C-Zentrix is a similar computer telephony integration software being used by enterprises across the globe. The CZ Bar not just enables outbound and inbound calling through a computer desktop but also adds to several call tracking features like voice logger for recording calls, screen logger for recording the screen of agents (specially used for sensitive processes by banks and non-banking financial companies). The CZ Bar also comes with call control features like call transfer, so a contact center agent can transfer a call to different department through their desktop, call conferencing, so an agent can get another agent or their supervisor to join the call and address the issue. The CZ Bar also comes with a whisper feature, this allows the supervisor to join a call and assist the agent without the caller at the other end knowing about it.

Globally (from customer research), a computer telephony integration (CTI) reduces the calling time of agent by upto 12 seconds. You must be wondering how? That’s because a CTI does not only integrate computer with telephony but it also integrates other workforce optimisation and customer relationship management tools with telephony. It sits in the form of a widget or icon on a CRM or other tools and makes dialling out from one of these software screens a possibility; saving an agent the effort and additional seconds spent on shifting screens and signing in to a different software. For instance a CTI integrated with CRM gives all the information of an inbound call to the contact center agent when the call connects. Similarly a computer telephony integration enables an agent to check the ticket status of a customer and dial out instantly from within the ticketing software. 74% of users said their CRM system gave them improved access to customer data.
