Your phone system is stuck in the past

Calls are routed, not transferred

Calls are routed, not transferred

Inbound calls run through a Phone Flow built in the same Flow builder your team uses for messaging. Callers choose from a keypad menu and the call routes to the right team, department or site, with calls outside your opening times handled by the rules you set rather than ringing out.

An inbound call arrives in Cue the way any other conversation does, so there is no second system to learn and no second window to keep open when the phone and the messaging queues are busy together.

Some enquiries are quicker to settle on a call. An agent can ring a customer directly from Cue, including when the enquiry started on WhatsApp, email or web chat. Outbound calling is agent-led, so your team decides who to call and when.

Calls recorded, transcribed and readable

Calls recorded, transcribed and readable

Calls can be recorded and recordings are transcribed automatically. Both sit in the conversation they belong to, so a manager reviewing a complaint can read what was said rather than listen through it.

Keep the number you already have

Port your existing number across so customers keep dialling the one they have saved. It’s quick for most numbers, and your current service keeps running until it switches.

Start with a new phone number

Pick a number through Cue and start taking calls on it straight away. Numbers are available in the UK and EMEA, and are usually live within three business days.

FAQ

Common questions about calls in Cue

Numbers and porting, what happens outside opening hours, how recording works, and what AI does and does not do on a call.

Can we keep our existing phone number?

In most cases yes, by porting it to Cue. Porting needs documentation, depends on your country and current provider, and takes time to complete, so it is worth starting early.
