How to Handle Customer Conversations Better Using Helpwise & Daylite

Product Updates / May 14, 2021 / Kristie

Many companies today use a single inbox to manage all their team emails and then either forward emails, CC, or BCC their colleagues, or they share passwords amongst each other to collaborate on handling conversations.

These methods are very ineffective because every time a different team member needs to see an email, they have to receive the forwarded copy of the email. There are many other problems that arise with this:

  • People end up switching between multiple platforms like CRMs and email inboxes just to look at each customer’s data and their emails. This can be pretty time consuming.
  • It gets difficult for the team to sort through every email so that a particular employee can take care of conversations that fall under their purview or department.
  • Sometimes, an employee that is sharing an account with another team member might end up responding to the wrong email.
  • Sharing passwords & other login details to team email IDs can lead to data theft and is a big security risk in itself.

The solution to these issues is simple, use the Helpwise shared inbox which has a direct integration with your favourite CRM tool, Daylite.

The integration allows users to view, create, and update Daylite contacts and opportunities right from the Helpwise dashboard. You can use the Helpwise shared inbox to keep track of all the emails of your customers & clients and delegate the conversations to your team members.

For example, this integration allows customer support teams or client-facing teams to keep track of all the client/customer data right from within your shared inbox. You get the ability to share conversations with team members through conversation delegation. This means, no need to screenshot, forward, or CC/BCC emails.

Why Helpwise?

Helpwise is a shared inbox tool that acts as a single repository of emails for various inboxes. It allows multiple people to access one single inbox while helping them stay productive and collaborate efficiently. 

You don’t need to share passwords, forward emails or CC/BCC emails anymore. Helpwise allows you to have a single team email inbox, and each team member gets their own unique login. So whenever a team member replies to an email addressed to the team email address, the reply will be sent from the same team email address, like info@ or help@, even if different team members reply on the same email thread. 

You also get detailed analytics that shows how well your team is performing in replying to queries. Reports show the number of queries and the response rate.

Here’s how Helpwise can help your team:

  • Assign conversations to team members or groups
  • Collaborate on each conversation or email thread internally with your team members
  • View and reply to conversations from different inboxes (email, social media accounts, live chat) on one platform
  • Access to analytics to see how well your team responds to customer queries
  • Automate tasks like assigning of conversations, tagging emails, and auto-replies based on the content of the email
