Imagine a typical Monday morning when your phone rings nonstop with calls from potential or existing customers. Each call is an opportunity to create a positive impression that could strengthen or weaken your relationship with them. In today’s fast-paced business world, providing prompt and professional customer service is crucial. That’s where our advanced Virtual Receptionist feature comes in.

What is a Virtual Receptionist?

At UnitedCloud, our Virtual Receptionist is an auto-attendant phone system that saves time by routing calls and filtering out spam. It operates just like a live receptionist but with the added efficiency of automation. Instead of hiring an external service or relying on human operators, our Virtual Receptionist is programmed to handle calls according to your specific preferences.

How Does UnitedCloud's Virtual Receptionist Work?

When a caller dials your company’s main number, our Virtual Receptionist welcomes them with a pre-recorded message and provides options to connect with the appropriate department or person. By simply pressing a number, the caller is seamlessly transferred to their desired destination.

Our auto-attendant system allows you to route calls to specific team members or departments, or direct them to voicemail if no one is available. Setting up and adjusting your call routing preferences is simple and can be done through your online dashboard.
