FayeBSG Announces SugarCRM ShoreTel Integration to Enable Seamless Communications for Customer-Facing Professionals
Woodland Hills, CA (PRWEB) January 28, 2014 -- Faye Business Systems Group (FayeBSG), an award winning SugarCRM Platinum Partner in Southern California, has announced the product launch of their SugarCRM ShoreTel Integration Application. While Sugar is incredibly versatile, it just got even sweeter with The FayeBSG SugarCRM ShoreTel Integration Application which was designed to allow users of ShoreTel phone systems and the SugarCRM Application to function as one. ShoreTel is the leading provider of brilliantly simple phone systems and unified communications solutions.
“We’ve designed our Sugar ShoreTel Integration to streamline the entire call to CRM process,” said FayeBSG CEO David Faye, “but what’s great is the ease of installation. It’s easy to configure, and easy to use. The functionality between Sugar and ShoreTel is very exciting. In using their ShoreTel phone system, people can now track phone calls and schedule follow up meetings all through Sugar.”
FayeBSG used ShoreTel’s APIs and open architecture to build the custom integration, ensuring it will work seamlessly with the SugarCRM solution.
Pej Roshan, vice president of product management at ShoreTel, said: “One of the benefits of ShoreTel’s open architecture is the ability for third-parties to use our APIs to create integrations. ShoreTel is becoming the UC platform of choice for delivering the insights of a company’s CRM across the business. FayeBSG is capitalizing on the popularity of CRM solutions and VoIP to provide greater ease of use and productivity improvements for small- to medium-sized businesses.”
Without an integrated phone system, there can be painful inefficiencies that occur on a day-to-day basis. For example, sales reps or other staff can forget to log their calls in Sugar, or forget to create a new contact/lead when a call is received from an unknown source. Human error is also a factor; staff members can sometimes incorrectly enter customer data into Sugar after a call. Combining content and data from Sugar with a ShoreTel phone system creates a whole new layer of customer transparency and will translate to higher customer satisfaction. Gone are the days of trying to piece together call logs, looking at strange numbers and the length of call times. With the integration of Sugar and ShoreTel, call logging and data recording is automated.
The FayeBSG SugarCRM ShoreTel Integration Application conveniently features an easy to use and highly customizable web interface for the administrator to make user configuration changes. Here are some key features and benefits for a Sugar user when conducting outgoing calls:
• Initiate Click to Dial Functions with the click of a mouse
• Automatically launch a Log Call screen after the Click to Dial screen to easily record the results of the call
• Easily identify and track the outgoing call recipient as a contact, account or lead
• Smoothly schedule a reminder or follow-up call to touch base with the contact or lead in the future
For In-coming Calls, the key features and benefits include:
• Receive a pop-up message within Sugar alerting you to an in-coming call
• Pop-up messages remain active while working in other programs or windows
• Automatically launch a Log Call screen to easily record the results of the in-coming call
• Easily add the in-coming call details as a contact, account or lead
• Easily schedule a reminder or follow-up call to touch base with the contact or lead in the future
