The call is part of the client history, so it should be on the client record.

CubeMSP and Wildix

Call activity against the client record, and a click-to-dial that starts from the contact rather than from a handset.

A great deal of what a managed service provider does happens on the telephone, and almost none of it ends up on the record. Wildix exposes a well-documented API and Crushed Ice has been building against it for years, so bringing call activity onto the client and incident record is familiar ground rather than speculative. Inbound calls identify the client from the number, calls can be logged against an incident, and click-to-dial starts from the contact you are already looking at.

What moves

Exactly what is synced, and which way

Being specific about this up front avoids the single most common integration disappointment - discovering after go-live that one field never travelled.

  • Into CubeMSP

    Call activity

    Inbound and outbound calls logged against the client and contact identified from the number, with duration and outcome.

  • Into CubeMSP

    Caller identification

    The client, site and open incidents for an inbound number surfaced as the call arrives, so the person answering already has the context.

  • Out of CubeMSP

    Click to dial

    Dial from the contact record on screen rather than typing a number into a handset, with the call logged automatically.

How it behaves

The detail that decides whether it is actually useful

  • Context before you answer

    Who is calling, which client, which site and what is currently open for them - on screen as the phone rings rather than after asking.

  • Calls attached to incidents

    A call about an open incident logged against it, so the record of what was discussed is where the work is rather than in somebody’s memory.

  • History that includes the phone

    The client record shows calls alongside incidents, notes and projects. For accounts where most contact is by telephone, this is the difference between a record and a fiction.

  • Call volume per client

    How much telephone support an account actually consumes, which is frequently the missing figure when a fixed fee looks unprofitable and nobody can say why.

Setting it up

Three steps, done during implementation

  1. Provide API credentials for your Wildix PBX.

  2. Map extensions to CubeMSP users so calls attribute to the right person.

  3. Enable caller identification and click-to-dial per user rather than for everyone at once.

Questions

What people ask about this one

  • No - it is planned. We are being specific about it because the group has built Wildix integrations before and the API is well understood, but it is not shipped and we will not imply that it is.

  • No. Call recording is a PBX function with its own legal and retention considerations, and it should stay there. CubeMSP records that a call happened, with whom, and about what.

  • The same pattern applies to any PBX with a usable API. Wildix is named because it is the one the group knows best, not because it is the only one possible.

  • It can. Logged call duration can be turned into a time entry against an incident, which is how most telephone support ends up billed correctly rather than not at all.
