What can be done with Salesforce integration?
With SmartDialog and the Salesforce connector, you can build effective, personal and reachable customer communication dialogues by sending and receiving text messages and instant messages (e.g. WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger) to Finland and around the world directly from Salesforce.
The solution supports alphanumeric sender name (e.g. CompanyOy) in 1-way and 2-way can be used with long virtual numbers (longcode, +358451234567) or short message numbers (shortcode, 18XXX). You get access to services and numbers on a turnkey basis.
For installation and commissioning of the connector, you can get the help documentation (SmartDialog.-Salesforce -connector Configuration Guide) from us. A Salesforce administrator (“admin”) level person can configure the package for their use. Message sending and receiving can be configured by Salesforce administrators.
