Benefits of Central business number feature
Discover how our features help you work smarter, save time, and improve how your business communicates.
Based on area code
This divides the call traffic based on the prefix of the caller's number. In other words: 010 to Rotterdam, 020 to Amsterdam, and so on. This is a low-threshold option, especially for callers, because the IVR does all the work. The caller literally doesn't notice anything.
Based on postal code
This asks the caller to enter the four digits of the postcode, after which the caller is transferred to the establishment that you have assigned to this postcode. Although the caller must take action (enter four digits), this method is more detailed. Especially if you have multiple establishments in one area code area, this is the most 'pure' option.
Smart combination
It is also possible to combine both functionalities. For example, by using the area code in places where you have one branch (fine-grained enough) and asking callers for their postcode in areas with multiple branches. And if someone calls with a mobile or blocked number? Then the system still asks for the postcode.
