Company Messaging Features

  • End-users included in a Company messaging group ("Agents") can see Company messaging conversations under the separate tab available in the left panel of the Elevate Desktop app and within the Messages tab in Elevate Mobile apps
  • Agents can receive and reply to messages using both Desktop and Mobile apps.
  • Each conversation will be tagged with the group name associated with the DID (Configured by the admin) that external users are sending messages to (“Main Company Number”, “Sales”, “Support”)
  • New Company conversations and their searchable history are visible for all agents in the group. Any agent may reply to an external user and other agents will be able to see these messages.  External user will receive an each message as an SMS sent from the Company number.
  • Agents can send and receive MMS attachments (MMS limitations apply)
    Note: MMS for company messaging is currently only compatible with local numbers and not toll-free.
  • Agents can mute conversations that another agents have assumed ownership of (to stop receiving notifications of new messages)
  • Agents may edit conversation names and descriptions.
