Call pop
Call pops—or, as we refer to them at Dialpad, Real-Time Assist (RTA) cards—are designed to pop up automatically on a contact center agent's screen when they're faced with a question they don't know the answer to. See how it works with a product tour!
What is a call pop-up and how does it work in Dialpad?
When an agent is on a call and a specific keyword or phrase is used during the conversation, an incoming call pop-up or RTA card will appear in real-time.
You can create notifications with tailored notes on everything from pricing plans to your refund policies, and even competitor battle cards (to help your sales team with objection handling). Essentially, they cover anything your business needs them to:
(If a trigger word is mentioned twice on a call, the card will only pop up the first time, so as not to bombard agents with unnecessary information.)

Integrate the call pop screen with these popular tools
Fun fact: Dialpad has a wide range of integrations that streamline workflows for agents and take repetitive, low-value tasks off their plates. Here are a few examples. (And if you want to, you can also build your own custom integrations with more niche tools with Dialpad's API.)
Zendesk
When you connect with a customer over a call, you can launch the Dialpad Everywhere widget, which lets you use the call pop feature inside Zendesk. This means that even when agents are inside their Zendesk tab or window, they have access to the screen pop-ups they need.
With Dialpad's Zendesk integration, all your data from both platforms will update and sync automatically across devices—perfect for closing tickets and managing customer info effieiciently. Agents can also take inbound calls—and make outbound calls—from inside Zendesk through the CTI (Computer Telephony Integration) dialer:
Salesforce
One of the most popular CRMs around, Salesforce has a large library of integrations. One of these is with Dialpad, which lets sales reps sync contact details and log activities like phone calls and texts.
Dialpad‘s RTA cards, or call pops, will also show up directly in Salesforce while reps are live on sales calls:

FAQs about call pop
What are common examples of how people use call pop-ups?
Call pops can contain any prompts or information that a customer-facing employee may need to help them communicate with customers more effectively. Call pop cards are incredibly versatile and can be used by contact center teams, sales reps, customer support teams, or any other team that needs to have conversations with customers or prospects on a daily basis.
Call pop-ups are particularly critical to improving customer experience. With new agents, for example, they can help them navigate unfamiliar topics. Equally, for more experienced employees, call pops can help answer tricky or out-of-the-box questions during phone calls.
