Use SapphireOne SoftPhone integration to manage internal and external calls, maximise your CRM system and build relationships that last.

In our increasingly mobile business world, it is becoming more and more critical for businesses to employ technology to help employees remain connected and productive while working from anywhere. A SoftPhone integration is an essential communications tool that will set your business up for success by helping all your employees stay connected to the office no matter where they are.

Furthermore, when integrated directly with your Client Relationship Management (CRM) system, SoftPhone technology will help your whole team work more collaboratively through unifying the entire infrastructure of your business.

What is a SoftPhone integration?

A SoftPhone is essentially a software-based phone, bringing all the functionality of a desk phone into a computer or mobile device. It uses software to mimic the functionality of a desk phone on your screen, including a dial pad and call handling features (hold, transfer, mute, etc). 

It also uses VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) technology, which allows you to make voice calls over the internet using your data.

Benefits of using SoftPhone technology.

1. Access your business phone anytime, anywhere – SoftPhone technology does not require a physical telephone line, and instead utilises Sip Trunk, ISDN or PSDN networks allowing you to access your business phone directly through a Desktop app, Tablet or Mobile device.
   
   
2. Perfect for remote and off-site employees – Using the SoftPhone application, employees can answer incoming calls as well as make outgoing calls directly from their device, just as if they were in the office.
   
   
3. Reduced costs and savings – SoftPhone eliminates the need to purchase hard phones for every employee, and VoIP technology utilises data to place affordable calls – even for international communication.
   
   
4. Secure communication lines – SoftPhone technology operates over your own Virtual Private Network (VPN) and is always encrypted and secure.
   
   
5. Improved relationships – Clear communication is key to all great relationships, and SoftPhone technology gives you the tools needed to help build strong relationships with your clients, vendors and employees.
