Smart Charge America

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.

David Laderberg, VP of Sales

Remote

Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.

Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder

SweepBright

Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.

Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO

Digioh

Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.

Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder

Otter.ai

We don't just want to patch holes; we want to build scalable, future-proof systems. Zapier is helping us do that.

Allen Lai, Head of Customer Experience

Superhuman

We've been able to scale our operations while staying lean. Zapier lets us do more without needing more people.

Jacob Sirrs, Marketing Operations Specialist

Transform your call center with Zapier

Unlock smarter call center automation with Zapier. Route calls faster, streamline contact center workflows, and speed post-call follow-up—and that’s just the start.

Call routing and distribution

Faster paths to the right agent

Automate call routing rules and distribution triggers across your call center. Use data from Zendesk, Slack, and forms to direct customer inquiries by priority, team, or issue. That means faster response times and fewer transfers.

Lead generation and management

Smart call routing rules

Route inbound requests by issue, language, or priority so the right customer reaches the right team without manual triage.

Priority queue alerts

Send Slack alerts when priority queues build up, so agents can respond before wait times hurt customer service.

Agent availability matching

Match open calls to available agents using status changes from your support tools, reducing idle time and transfers.

Customer issue tagging

Tag incoming customer issues from forms or tickets, then route each call path based on need, product, or urgency.

Overflow handoff workflows

Move overflow calls into backup workflows and notify the next team fast, so service coverage stays steady during spikes.

How it works

Call center operations automation connects your tools, detects queue activity and call outcomes, and triggers workflows automatically. Route calls, alert agents, and log follow-ups in real time—without manually updating records.

  1. Step 1

    Connect your tools

    Integrate platforms like Zendesk, Slack, Zoom, help desk tools, and phone systems to centralize call center data.

  2. Step 2

    Define triggers

    Set conditions for queue spikes, missed calls, agent availability, call outcomes, or wrap-up delays.

  3. Step 3

    Automate & measure

    Send alerts, create tasks, update records, and continuously track call handling improvements automatically.
