Connecting Your Digital Channels
The first exciting step is to choose which digital channels you, the Account Owner, want to connect. NextivaCX gives you the power to bring all your customer interactions into one place:
-
Social Media: Connect your Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn accounts to engage with customers directly within NextivaCX.
-
Messaging Apps: Link your private messaging channels like Facebook Messenger, X DMs, Instagram, Telegram, Viber, WhatsApp, and Twilio. Now you can respond to all your messages from a single platform!
-
Online Reviews: Manage and respond to reviews from popular sites like Google Reviews, all within NextivaCX.
-
Email: Connect your email to have all incoming messages routed directly to the NextivaCX Unibox. This streamlines your customer communication and allows you to use our powerful help desk features to manage and respond to inquiries efficiently.
- Live Chat: Add a live chat widget to your website so customers can reach out in real-time. All chat messages will appear in your Unibox, ready for you to respond (depending on your package type).
