Call Logging as an Activity

Associate calls to contacts or customers, and your activity is automatically logged across those associations when the call completes. You can edit notes for your Zendesk ticket, or use the default notes.

Manage your tasks and records

From the Zendesk integration panel, make new contacts, tickets, or accounts. Also type notes that will create tasks automatically. Our NLP technology interprets words like “tomorrow” or “next week” as dates for your tasks.

Hop into your call with Screen Pop
