How PBX.IM Phone Integration Works with Slack?

The Slack phone system integration that connects PBX.IM to every tool in your stack - so calls, SMS, and WhatsApp fit into your workflows instead of sitting outside them.

Click-to-Call from Slack

Trigger a call to any contact directly through Slack - no copy-pasting numbers, no switching apps. One action in your workflow starts the call through PBX.IM. 

Automated SMS via Slack

Send SMS automatically when a trigger fires in Slack. New lead, form submission, payment confirmed, ticket opened - any event can kick off a text message through PBX.IM without any manual action.

WhatsApp Messaging via Slack

Add WhatsApp to any workflow in Slack. Send automated messages, follow-ups, or notifications to contacts on WhatsApp - and log every reply back to the right record automatically.

Call Monitoring Across Workflows

Track call activity and performance across every workflow connected to Slack. Supervisors get full visibility into what's happening on every call - and the data flows wherever your stack needs it. 

Call Data Logged Across Your Stack

Every call made or received through PBX.IM can trigger an action in Slack - update a CRM record, create a task, send a notification, or move a deal to the next stage. No manual logging, no gaps in your data.
