Call notes
After a call ends, the details start to fade. What did the customer ask? What did you promise to follow up on? Was there a deadline? Without a note, this information is lost — or scattered across sticky notes, emails, and chat messages.
Call notes fix this. Under each call in your dashboard, you can type a note — a follow-up action, a customer request, a deal status, or anything else worth remembering. The note stays linked to that call permanently, visible to your whole team.

Benefits of call notes
See how call notes help your team stay organized and act faster.
Write notes per call
Write notes directly under any call. Capture follow-ups, action points, or customer details while the conversation is still fresh.
Team sharing
Everyone sees the same notes, so handovers stay clear and consistent. When a colleague picks up the next call from the same customer, the context is already there.
Turn calls into insights
Over time, your call notes become a valuable source of customer data. Spot recurring issues, track deal progress, and identify patterns across your call history.
One place for all call context
No more scattered notes across sticky notes, emails, and chat messages. Everything related to a call lives in one central, searchable place.
Move faster with clarity
When you call a customer back, the note tells you exactly where you left off. Less searching, fewer repeated questions, quicker follow-ups.
See it in action
See how call notes work inside your dashboard. After any call, simply add a typed note — your insight stays connected to that specific call permanently.

Customer wants renewal options. Follow up tomorrow to solve this issue.
Real-world use cases
Call notes are used across teams wherever calls need documentation and follow-up.
Customer support
Store customer questions, issues, and resolutions directly under the call. When the customer calls back, any team member can see what was discussed and what actions were promised.
Sales teams
Note down customer interests, objections, and next steps. When it is time to follow up, the note tells you exactly what to say — turning calls into a consistent pipeline of warm leads.
Operations & logistics
Document delivery updates, status checks, or verification details. Keep everything clear and traceable so internal teams can act on the information without asking again.
Account & billing
Capture payment reminders, billing questions, or contract details. Notes stay linked to the right call for fast reference during follow-up conversations.
How call notes work
In your call overview, every call has a notes field. Click it, type your note, and it is saved — linked to that specific call permanently. You can add a note during the call, immediately after, or hours later when you remember something important.
Notes are plain text. They are designed for quick documentation — a sentence or two is usually enough. “Customer wants renewal options — follow up Friday.” “Complaint about delivery #4521 — escalate to logistics.” Short, clear, and actionable.
Visible to your whole team
Call notes are not private. Everyone on your team who has access to the call overview can read and add notes. This makes handovers seamless — when a colleague picks up the next call from the same customer, they see exactly what was discussed before.
For sales teams, this means no more asking “did anyone speak to this lead already?” For support teams, it means no more customers repeating their issue to every new agent. The context travels with the call.
Combine with starring, recording, and insights
Call notes work best alongside other features. Star a call to mark it as important, then add a note explaining why. Listen back to the call recording to verify details before writing the note. Use call insights to find calls that need attention, then document them with notes.
Together, these features turn your call history from a simple log into a complete customer interaction record.
From call history to customer knowledge
Over weeks and months, call notes build up into a valuable knowledge base. You can look up any customer, see every call they made, and read the notes attached to each one. This gives you a timeline of the relationship — what was discussed, what was promised, and what still needs action.
For businesses without a CRM, call notes serve as a lightweight alternative. For businesses with a CRM, call notes complement it — capturing the details that never make it into the formal system.
