How does conversation linking work?
CurrentClient can automatically sync your conversation history to your CRM, keeping everything organized in one place. When someone calls or texts you, we automatically check for a matching contact record and connect the conversation. If we don’t find a match, that’s okay! You can still communicate normally.
