Voice Overview Page

The Voice Overview page in your Housecall Pro Inbox is a powerful tool designed to help you efficiently monitor your calls and team. With a quick glance, you can stay on top of your communications and ensure everything is running smoothly by toggling between these three tabs:

  • Queued Calls

  • Active Calls

  • Agent Management

These tabs make it easy to manage multiple calls, monitor your team’s status, and stay informed on who is actively on a call with a customer.


How to Access & Navigate Voice Overview Page

To access and navigate the Voice Overview page:

  • Click the 'Inbox' tab in the navigation bar at the top of your Housecall Pro account.

  • If Voice is enabled on your Housecall Pro account, you'll automatically be directed to the Voice Overview page.

  • From here, you can toggle between the Queued Calls, Active Calls, and Agent Management tabs.

  • The Queued Calls tab displays all calls waiting in your queue, along with the duration each call has been in the queue.

    • To connect to a call, simply click 'Connect' on the far right of the call entry.

    • This tab mirrors the calls in your dialer’s call queue, so you'll see the same list of waiting calls.

Please Note: You'll need your dialer open in order to connect to the call.

🛠️ Pro Tip: Calls are queued either because they were directed to your call queue through your call flow or because one of your team members placed a call on hold.

  • The Active Calls tab shows which employees are currently on a call, along with the call duration and caller information.

  • The Agent Management tab displays the call status of each of your employees:

    • Available (green)

    • On a call (yellow)

    • Unavailable (gray)

  • If needed, you can quickly call or message an employee by clicking the blue phone or chat icons to the right of their status.
