Improve Customer Service 

Sometimes having quick and accurate information can be the difference between closing and losing a sale. Hosted Unified Communications ensures that agents can effectively communicate with stakeholders and provide an exceptional level of customer service. 

More Benefits of Hosted UC

  • Professionalism: Linking phones with a single business number allows client calls to be routed directly to a specific agent. If that agent is unable to take a call at that time, then someone else is connected.
  • Collaboration: Agents can double-check facts and figures, create presentations, and quickly collaborate on documents, so they are always prepared to meet with clients.
  • Video tours: There are many reasons clients may be unable to visit a prospective property in person. Hosted UC’s video conferencing abilities enable agents to offer virtual tours of properties and the surrounding areas.
