Our groomers are happier and feel they get a fair number of calls each, so there is no mistrust and we can focus on growing the business as opposed to solving internal disputes.

Zintel Customer Case Study

Lucy runs a dog grooming business with several groomers based in Sydney. All of the groomers handle calls from the 1800 number so Lucy needs to ensure that the calls are fairly distributed and that the agent who least recently received a call gets the next one.

Zintel’s Call Overflow Least Recent along with Percentage Call Splaying allows Lucy to ensure a fair division of calls over the course of the month.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Our system identifies the answer point or team member who is next in line to receive a call. If they’ve waited longer than their team members, they’re first in line to answer the next call.

Yes. But if you want to divert calls overseas, please contact us to confirm call rates.

No. This is not possible. A virtual number can route to a mobile, landline VoIP, Answering Service, Voicemail, etc – but not a 1300/1800 number.
