Our Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) system integrates PBXware with gloCOM, where PBXware takes care of the backend while gloCOM provides the user interface. Users can make and receive calls seamlessly on their desktop, mobile devices (both iOS and Android), and through web applications using a single number, eliminating the hassle of being confined to one device or location. With the introduction of v8's multi-CRM functionality, all conversation histories are automatically recorded in each user's CRM, ensuring that client information remains up-to-date across all platforms without the need for extra manual input. gloCOM Next operates on a consistent codebase for both desktop and web applications, offering complete branding customization via BRM.

Designed for service providers and available as a white-label solution, this platform delivers a comprehensive omnichannel contact center that partners can offer under their own branding or opt for a more streamlined version with different features. Agents are equipped to operate from a unified interface that integrates voice, SMS, email, live chat, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger, addressing the expectation for seamless communication across all channels. Supervisors benefit from real-time wallboards, visibility into live queues, and access to over 40 reports, enabling data-driven decisions based on current conditions rather than outdated information. With version 8, Voice Agents provide coverage during off-hours when live agents are unavailable, and the multi-CRM functionality ensures that every interaction is automatically associated with the correct record, eliminating the need for manual logging. Additionally, four different outbound dialing strategies allow providers to tailor the tool to suit various campaign needs.

Our Cloud PBX utilizes PBXware on SERVERware, a dedicated hosting and infrastructure solution tailored for communication needs. This distinction is crucial in real-world applications: the underlying features such as geo-redundancy, automatic failover, and storage replication ensure that any hardware issues remain confined to the infrastructure, preventing any impact on the end user. As a provider’s client base expands, they can easily scale by adding more hosts, ensuring seamless service continuity. The multi-tenant architecture supports multiple clients from a single installation, and the entire system is fully white-label, allowing providers to offer it under their own brand while maintaining their desired profit margins.
