By Gideon Hack December 20, 2017

Call Center Challenges: Inbound Calling in Focus

By Gideon Hack November 27, 2017

Call centers are at the front line of customer service and are expected to run at peak efficiency while maintaining a high call volume. There are many challenges in managing and operating a call center, one of them being securing inbound calling services that meet both current and future needs.

The system sends the dialed telephone number to the PBX so that an outside caller can have direct access to the PBX extension, possibly avoiding an auto-attendant.
