Picture Black Friday. The store is packed, and the phones will not stop ringing with questions about what is in stock, online orders and the latest deals. Staff are bouncing between callers, shoppers on the floor and the warehouse, trying to keep it all moving. Then, right in the middle of the rush, the phone system goes down, and everyone is left struggling to keep in touch.
Now imagine the same day with the RBI Cloud Connect retail phone system. Every communication channel lives on a single platform, so your staff can move easily from calls to messages to virtual meetings and give each customer quick, personal attention. On the shop floor, in the warehouse or working from home, everyone stays connected and gets things done. Missed calls and mix-ups give way to a smooth, efficient operation that keeps shoppers satisfied and your business growing.
What a Retail Phone System Does
A retail phone system is a unified communications platform built with retailers in mind. Because it runs in the cloud, it carries your internal and external communications over the internet, so you no longer need traditional PSTN lines or bulky equipment. Today's retail phone systems help stores stay on top of their communications, with tools such as team messaging, video meetings and smooth integration across devices.
How the RBI Cloud Connect System Works
We built our system to be simple and efficient to use. Getting set up only takes minutes, with straightforward tools for adding users, assigning numbers and creating routing rules. You can also bring your current phone numbers with you, so the switch is smooth and causes very little disruption.
Your team can communicate easily from desktops, mobile phones and web browsers alike. Built-in analytics help everyone work more productively by transcribing calls and meetings, keeping track of action items and emailing summaries straight to your inbox once a call ends.
