For a team whose main job is answering inbound calls — support, service, front desk — in the order that gets a support desk from nothing to answering, without re-reading the whole site.

Start here

1

Complete the admin quickstart

Connect your carrier, add a phone number, and invite your first agent — see Set up your contact center.
2

Set your business hours

Define when your desk is open, including holidays — see Business hours. Note its current limit: a schedule doesn’t yet affect routing on its own.
3

Create a queue and route your number to it

Build the queue your agents answer from, then point your phone number at it — see Create a queue and Route an inbound number.
4

Build an IVR menu, if you need one

Give callers a menu before they reach a queue — see Build a menu.
5

Bring your agents on

Sign in, set up audio, and learn the states — see Set up your headset and audio and Agent states.
