14 Mar 2017 | 0 | 3085

1. Introduce Bitrix24 SIP Connector

In 2015, Bitrix released SIP connector for Bitrix24 telephony, which is mean that users can connect their existing PBX, both cloud and physical office PBX, to Bitrix24 and get all the benefits of Bitrix24 CRM.

It has been a big upgrade for Bitrix24 users, since there are several advantages of using SIP connector:

  1. First, you can work with your existing phone number
  2. Second, you’ll pay for the phone calls to your current IT telephony provider at the rates that you chose.
  3. Third, you’ll get access to features that you probably did not have, like ability to record phone calls, create a new lead automatically whensomeone new calls you, or automatic forwarding of phone calls to a responsible manager when an existing client calls from a phone number that’s listed in your CRM.

2. Why enterprise need a specialized connector module integrated on their own telephony system

Calling Client Directly From CRM System

There is no question about the benefit of Bitrix SIP Connector, especially the great benefit of connecting and synchronizing between your telephony system and Bitrix24 CRM data.

Yet for other countries users which are out of Russia region, especially SEA countries, using connector via Bitrix Server may cause some issues that cost business much more to ensure the call quality.

Firstly, since the call has to go through many systems in different servers/locations, don’t expect great quality. Your company may equip the best bandwidth internet, but a long road bring context from your system to Russia server and back, jitters and delay can happen anytime.   

Secondly, many parts of the system would take you more time and cost to detect and fix the issue when happen. That’s why the monthly fee for maintaining and managing system would make business consider about having a specialized connector.
