Using the Kavkom application on Windows
Navigating the Kavkom application on Windows is easy. When you first log in to the application, your default screen is the dial pad where you can make outgoing calls.
Above the numeric keypad, you can toggle between your different numbers to choose the one you wish to display to your callers for future calls.
The “enter a number” box lets you select the country to which you wish to make a call, without having to enter the area code. You can type in a number using the numeric keypad, or paste it from the clipboard.
In-call view
During a call, here are the keys and their corresponding functions:
- Mute : mute microphone
- Keypad : display numeric keypad
- Add : invite a participant
- Transfer : transfer the call to a teammate or an external number
- Hold : put the correspondent on hold
Correspondent identification
By activating the contact search with an integration or the Kavkom CRM, the contact’s record appears with its information on an incoming or outgoing call, as well as in the call history. You can then either quickly access the corresponding record in your CRM with a single click, or create a contact there.
Transfer a call
Transfer your calls directly to an internal colleague or to an external line. Scroll through your contacts or use the search bar to find the right person, or enter the destination phone number.
Then tap on :
- “Transfer now” to make a direct transfer
- “Call first” to talk to the transfer recipient before confirming the transfer.
Numeric keypad
To display the keypad during a call to perform an action (e.g. to dial a number in an IVR menu, or when you need to enter a pin code), press the “Keypad” key. Tap on the cross at top right to close it.
Invite to participate in the call
To invite a third party to the phone call, tap on “Add”, then select the collaborator or enter the phone number.
Put on hold
Press hold to put your callers on hold with music. Press again to resume the call.
Minimize call window
By tapping on the icon at the top left, you minimize the current call window, allowing you to navigate the application menus while still on the line. Tap on the green bar to return to the call window.
Call history
View your call history from any of your numbers. You can view outgoing, incoming and internal calls, as well as voice messages. In addition to the phone number, the contact name is displayed when an integration is activated and the number corresponds to a contact in your CRM.
Find a call
To find calls easily, you can do a search or use filters by tapping on “Filters” in the top right-hand corner and selecting the direction, a date range, a collaborator or your numbers on the display.
Call details
Tapping on a recent call takes you to the call details, the recording, the contact record if the number is stored in your CRM, and the call history for that number.
Contacts
Find the list of your teammates to contact them quickly.
