Smart Call Routing: How to Route Calls Based on Geo or Time with Opentact

 


🌐 Rethinking Traditional Call Handling

In today’s hyper-connected, global-first business landscape, a one-size-fits-all approach to call routing simply doesn’t work. Your customers expect to speak to someone who understands their language, time zone, and urgency — all while experiencing minimal wait time.

This is where Opentact’s Geo and Time-Based Call Routing steps in as a game-changer.
