Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) provides the missing link between telephony systems and Sage CRM. With CTI businesses, can see who is calling them and dial contacts on-screen through Sage CRM.

This can save seconds on every phone call adding up to hours saved across an entire team every week thereby reducing business overheads. By making telephony part of the infrastructure, call statistics, campaign responses and data quality can all be captured and assessed within the Sage CRM software interface.

A recent DTI Computer Telephony Integration report found up to as many as 10% of outbound phone calls are misdialled. The cumulative time to make a call, even when its dialled correctly, adds up to a sizeable financial cost. intelli-CTi one-click dialling from the desktop eliminates dial errors to free up staff time to make more calls and carry out more profitable work.  The same report also found automatic caller identification can cut at least 20 seconds off each call. Using intelli-CTi screen-popping caller ID, seconds saved off each call add up to a saving of over 5 hours for every 1000 calls made by a team!
