What is Click-to-Call?
Click-to-call is a feature that lets users place a phone call by clicking a button, link, or contact in software, without manually dialing the number.
Click-to-Call Explained
Click-to-call lets a user start a phone call instantly by clicking a phone number, contact, or button inside an app, website, or CRM, instead of reading a number and dialing it digit by digit. It removes friction, eliminates misdials, and speeds up high-volume outbound calling because reps can dial straight from a contact record, a lead list, or a web page. In a VoIP system, click-to-call connects through the softphone — the browser or mobile app places the call over the internet the moment it is triggered. Connectoo offers click-to-call directly inside its built-in CRM: a rep clicks a contact and Connectoo places the VoIP call from the browser via WebRTC or the mobile app, with numbers available in 60+ countries and no SIM-based calling. Because the call originates inside the CRM, it is logged automatically against the contact on a unified timeline that also holds native WhatsApp chats and SMS, and auto follow-up workflows can fire on the outcome. Call-only tools like Aircall, JustCall, and Dialpad offer click-to-call too, but they stop at the call; Connectoo turns each click into a unified, multi-channel customer record. Connectoo serves teams of every size, from solo founders to enterprise.
