The Zuper Connect inbox, in other words, called Conversations, is where all call and text communications associated with a specific Zuper number come together. Instead of navigating through multiple menus for calls, messages, and voicemails, you can access everything in one place—right here in your inbox. Why Inboxes/Conversations Are Useful Inboxes may seem straightforward, but they provide significant advantages for managing daily communications:

• A Unified View of Conversations: Here, you can see all your messages, calls, voicemails, and call recordings. This gives you a 360-degree view of customer interactions.
• Simplified Organization: Assign custom names to Zuper numbers, making it easier to categorize notifications and sort conversations. If you’re managing dispatch and service teams, you’ll be able to switch contexts seamlessly and quickly identify which notifications require immediate attention.
• Enhanced Team Visibility: A shared inbox ensures that everyone on your team knows who is communicating with customers. Whether it’s a job booking or a service-related inquiry, having a centralized inbox keeps your team aligned and working efficiently.
