Shared Inbox

Manage all your customer conversations in one place, accessible by your whole team.

Shared Inbox

A shared inbox is a centralised location where your entire team can view, manage, and respond to customer messages, emails, and enquiries. With Emson's shared inbox, you never lose track of a conversation, and everyone stays in the loop.

  • Unified communication: All customer messages from multiple channels are collected in one place.
  • Team collaboration: Assign, comment, and work together on customer cases without switching tools.
  • Transparency: Everyone can see the status of each conversation, reducing duplication and missed responses.
  • Efficiency: Quickly respond to customers and keep your team organised with clear ownership and internal notes.
  • Security: Control who can access and respond to messages with robust permissions.
  • Customer Satisfaction: Ensures timely and consistent responses, enhancing the overall customer experience.
