RingCentral for Oracle Sales Cloud

In an age where companies are less anchored to a physical location than ever before, it makes sense for them to take advantage of the digital technologies on offer. One of the best ways to do so is through the cloud. Storing masses of data, it’s a reliable and convenient tool for your business. 

Embracing the benefits of cloud technology reduces costs significantly (as alternative high tech and expensive equipment aren’t needed so much). It also provides a flexible and accessible option for employees. 

Therefore, RingCentral has facilitated integration with Oracle Cloud to bring businesses a cloud solution that’s simple to use and helps them grow. But what makes this collaboration particularly special is that it brings together all the best parts of both RingCentral and Oracle’s solutions on one platform. This means firms can now take advantage of robust cloud phone system features and high-powered computing operations in the same place. 

Work can thereby be centralised and global business communications maintained at a high standard.

Key features: 

One of the great qualities of this RingCentral integration is that it allows users to do everything in one place. This platform model enables data transmission between multiple software products at once. It also affords businesses a high degree of customisability to choose features and apps, like Zendesk and Salesforce, to integrate depending on need.

RingCentral’s integration with Oracle Sales Cloud merges business communications with CRM (Customer Relationship Management), enabling you to increase workflow efficiency among your worldwide staff base and improve the customer experience. 

You can eliminate time wasted switching between screens to search for customer information when they call by storing customer details and making notes of their conversations and queries with RingCentral’s communication capabilities. From phone calls to SMS, every vital information is stored, and staff can easily make notes and chase up tasks. This cuts down the time and resources it takes to resolve client problems and close deals.

However, Oracle and RingCentral’s integration has many capabilities beyond this. Its key features include: 

  • Automation help accelerates growth, meaning that firms don’t miss out on potential opportunities with clients.
  • Logging new calls and details surrounding it so that agents can better understand any conversations had.
  • Finding efficient ways to deal with problems, so if issues do occur, an appropriate solution can be found efficiently.
  • Suggesting actions to solve issues seamlessly. This helps reduce stress and means clients are kept happy through every stage of a sale.
  • Sending out messages to agents to call those prospective clients back who haven’t answered an initial call. This takes the pressure off agents to remember who has been contacted and who hasn’t.
  • Logging lead calls and contacts made with Salesforce. This means if a person needs to be contacted again, their details are easy to find.
  • Sending surveys once the RingCentral call has ended. This allows you to assess the quality of the call and see if and where staff need to improve.
  • Logging new calls for Hubspot contacts. This helps employees determine the engagement levels and the details of calls.
  • Logging new customer calls for Netsuite within the phone system when clients have been contacted.

Staying up to date with digital workplace trends can be tricky. But with so many office solutions within one platform like this, transforming your business processes and growing your business is so much easier.
