Solution: replaced phone calls with messaging in WhatsApp and Telegram

Albert Gainullin (Altyn Marketing) set up integration of WhatsApp and Telegram Personal with Bitrix24 using ChatApp. Set up feature “start a dialogue”, created automatic greeting to all incoming leads. 

“We tested a dozen of services for messengers integration with Bitrix24. We’ve selected ChatApp because the prices are transparent as much as possible – without limitation of messages number in a month.
Early on the setting itself was not very convenient – QR code scanning left much to be desired. But now the solution offered by ChatApp developers is above all praise – you can connect WhatsApp to a phone number in My Account and enter chat. It's quick, convenient, and available.
We worked within trial access, tested Bitrix24 robots. We had no faults with the integration, so we purchased the service for a quarter. Integration was stable, developers introduced new features on a regular basis, therefore we decided to go with ChatApp, and we have been using the service for a year”, – Albert Gainullin, Altyn Marketing

Result: saved 2 working months, reduced costs for phone calls 3-fold

In 5 months of 2022 over 2000 chats were opened in messengers on inbound leads, most of them in WhatsApp. When specialists advised by phone, primary call took in average 10 minutes. Specialists saved 20000 minutes of work – it’s 2 working months! 
Compared with calls from cloud-based phone system, costs of communication, including payment for ChatApp reduced 3-fold.

“Percentage of satisfied customers equals to 93%, due in no small part to stable work of ChatApp. Now we have stable WhatsApp and Telegram Personal integrations with Bitrix24. Service quality allows to concentrate on sales not on any rain dance. In the nearest future we plan to test bulk messaging in WhatsApp and Telegram”, – Albert Gainullin, Altyn Marketing.
