Desktop notifications for inbound calls in the browser
Hubspot has recently launched Hubspot phone numbers (currently in beta) that support inbound calls.
Currently the only way a user will know if an inbound call is being received is:
An audio ringing sound through the system audio device
A visual notification within the Hubspot application
The problem - if you aren't in/looking at Hubspot when the call comes in, the only way you'll know it is happening is through the speaker. I for one use a headset so the audio device is set to that and I don't hear audio alerts like this, so I have no way of knowing the call is coming in.
Idea: add desktop browser notifications for inbound calls. Chrome and other browserssupport native desktop notifications; this should be enabled for inbound calls.
I can believe it! Not only do I miss the calls, but I'm also completely unaware that I have missed a call unless I specifically look for the notification. It's a real issue. We also need a 'Missed Call' desktop notification!
