Telephony and the power dialer in X10 CRM

Operators call from the browser without installing anything: the number is dialled from the lead card, the conversation is recorded, and the power dialer feeds the next contact from the queue by itself.

Calls from the browser

Nothing to install: an operator needs the CRM tab and a headset.

Your own numbers

Connect the numbers from your own telecoms provider — landline, mobile or short codes.

Power dialer

The system dials the next contact itself and connects it to a free operator.

Recording and oversight

Every conversation is stored, and a supervisor can listen to a live call.

Telephony is not a separate service sitting next to the CRM — it is part of it. Operators do not switch between a softphone and the customer card, managers do not reconcile two sets of statistics, and recordings live where the leads do. You bring the numbers from your telecoms provider; X10 CRM does the rest.

#Calling straight from the browser

An operator clicks the number on the lead card and the conversation starts in the CRM tab. There is no separate application to install on every machine, update and fix remotely. For a distributed team that is the difference between a new hire being live in a minute and half a day with a sysadmin.

  • One-click calling from the lead card, the list or the call history.
  • The card opens itself on an inbound call — the operator knows who is calling before saying hello.
  • The call script on screen, when one is configured for that status or project.
  • Transfer, hold and conference — all as buttons in the call window.
  • One timeline — calls, SMS and messages sit together on the lead.

#The power dialer for outbound campaigns

When the base runs to thousands of contacts, manual dialling eats more time than the conversations do. The dialer takes a campaign, calls the next number itself and connects it to whoever has just become free. The operator works with their voice, not their mouse.

  1. 01

    You create a campaign

    A filtered set of leads, a schedule, the number of attempts and the pause between them.

  2. 02

    The system builds the queue

    The dialer decides who to call next and never calls the same contact twice.

  3. 03

    The operator gets connected

    The customer card and script are already open — they can talk from the first second.

  4. 04

    A disposition closes the call

    The operator records the outcome and the lead moves through the funnel automatically.

There is wrap-up time between calls: the operator finishes their note before the queue offers the next contact. That is what separates a managed campaign from a conveyor belt that burns the team out in a month.

#Inbound calls, queues and routing

SituationWhat the system does
A first-time callerThe call reaches a ring group and a lead is created automatically
An existing customer callsTheir lead opens with the full history
Every operator is busyThe caller joins a queue instead of hearing an engaged tone
A call outside working hoursThe out-of-hours scenario runs and the enquiry is not lost
A missed callA call-back task is created and counted in the statistics

For several brands or product lines, each project can have its own number, its own ring group and its own schedule — teams never hear each other's calls.

#Recording and supervisor tools

  • Every conversation recorded automatically — nothing to switch on by hand.
  • Live call monitoring for a supervisor when a new hire is handling a difficult customer.
  • Real-time operator states — who is on a call, who is on a break, who is late.
  • Plan versus actual on calls — duration, volume and conversion per operator.

Those recordings are the raw material for AI quality control: the system transcribes the conversation, scores it 0 to 100 and points at where the script was dropped. Manual listening is then reserved for what the AI flagged.

#What you need to connect it

  • A contract with any IP telephony provider and numbers from them
  • The connection details your provider supplies on request
  • Headsets for the operators — the cheapest possible investment in call quality
  • A list of extensions and inbound ring groups

The step-by-step setup, field by field, is in the documentation. The auto-dialer and outbound campaigns and call recordings — where they are stored, for how long and who can reach them — are documented separately. Our team configures it during onboarding.

Telephony is the centre of an operator's day, so it is usually switched on together with AI quality control, SMS triggers on status changes and delivery, so orders close in one window.

Frequently asked questions

Do operators need to install a softphone?
No. Calls run straight from the browser — an operator needs the CRM tab and a headset. That matters most for distributed teams: a new workstation is ready in a minute.
Can we connect our existing numbers?
Yes. X10 CRM does not tie you to a specific telecoms provider. If you already have numbers, in the vast majority of cases they are connected directly, with no migration to another provider.
What does the power dialer do?
It dials contacts from a filtered set, connects them to a free operator, respects the schedule and retry count, allows wrap-up time after each call and records the outcome of every attempt.
Are all conversations recorded?
Yes, automatically. Recordings are stored next to the lead, access is governed by permissions, and AI quality analysis runs on top of them.
Can a manager listen to a call in real time?
Yes. Supervisors see active conversations and can join any of them — the standard tool for coaching new hires and reviewing difficult cases.
What happens to a call when every operator is busy?
The caller joins a queue rather than hearing an engaged tone. If they do hang up, the system creates a call-back task so the enquiry is not lost.
