Intuitive hotline management

Optimum availability thanks to intelligent call routing

With TeamDesk, calls are optimally distributed among the team.

Even when working from home or on the move via app.

Your service hotline is constantly busy, but your customers still often don't get through?
Maybe you don't lack employees at all, but only an efficient use of your resources.
With TeamDesk, you can ensure that calls are optimally distributed among the team – even when working from home.

The best of both worlds.

Whether it's an external customer hotline or an internal IT helpdesk: how satisfied a caller is in the end depends crucially on your availability. The crux of the matter: solutions for intelligent call distribution are generally not only expensive and complex. Above all, they are isolated solutions that cannot be integrated into corporate communications.


With TeamDesk, you get the best of both worlds: intelligent call management that is significantly less complex and expensive than a call center solution, but offers far more than a simple ACD or group call.


What neither ACD nor call center software can offer you: with TeamDesk, you can set up teams across locations and PBXs: set up as many hotlines as you like and define distribution strategies, business hours, thresholds & wrap-up times for each hotline.

One client for all.

Whether softphone or cell phone: TeamDesk users can work with any end device and also log in when working from home. Whether presence status, chat or screen sharing: as all employees in the company use the same client, hotline members can not only exchange information with each other, but also with all other colleagues at any time.

Your service not only benefits from more efficient communication, but also from more information. Callers are identified while they are still in the queue. All customer data from ERP, CRM etc. that is relevant for the hotline staff can also be displayed directly in the client via the dashboard.

Analytics provides you with all the information about your availability: you will find all the data on call volumes, availability and waiting times presented in clear diagrams.

Only XPhone can do that.

I don't know this function from any other solution."

Evaluate call data. Optimise accessibility.

The more you know, the better you can plan. That's why our integrated analysis tool provides all the data you need to make optimum use of personnel resources, improve availability and thus increase customer satisfaction. Without any additional costs!

Thanks to analytics, you know, among other things

  • how many calls are lost
  • on which days and at what time the loss rate is highest
  • how long callers have to wait on average
  • how the call load develops over the course of the year

Efficient hotline management ensures that customer inquiries are processed quickly and reliably. This not only increases customer satisfaction, but also relieves employees through structured processes and transparent responsibilities.

Targeted distribution of calls to available and qualified contacts reduces waiting times and resolves issues more quickly. At the same time, bottlenecks and overloads can be better avoided – even at peak times.

Intelligent hotline solutions work regardless of location – whether in the office, working from home or on the move. Your service team remains available at all times without the need for a complex technical infrastructure.

Yes, with the right solution, calls can also be distributed across locations and telephone systems. This allows teams to work together seamlessly – regardless of where they are based or what technology is in use.

Modern solutions offer far more than simple forwarding: for example, presence queries, skill-based routing, VIP routing, automatic escalations or time-controlled scenarios. This increases availability and significantly improves service quality.

Hotline teams work most effectively when they do not operate in isolation, but are part of the overall corporate communication. Only when hotline employees and colleagues from other departments work in a shared system can information be shared quickly, queries clarified directly and processes designed consistently. This avoids isolated solutions, makes communication more efficient – and measurably improves customer service.

Sound data analysis is crucial for identifying bottlenecks at an early stage and planning resources efficiently. Only those who know when a particularly large number of calls come in, how long calls take or how high availability really is can manage their team in a targeted manner. Modern hotline solutions provide detailed evaluations in real time – as a basis for well-founded decisions and continuous optimisation of customer service.
