Communications

Customer conversations on the customer record

Send and receive email in Toolbase, filed against the contact, deal or job it belongs to.

The problem

Important conversations are trapped in personal inboxes

When a salesperson is away, nobody can see what was promised. Agreements made by email never reach the job file.

How Toolbase solves it

Email that is part of the record

Emails sent and received through Toolbase appear in the customer timeline. Anyone with permission can see the conversation in context.
