Looking for tomorrow afternoon

Your customers still call when you’re busy.

When nobody can answer, customers can be left waiting, sent to voicemail or forced to try again. DeskCover gives them someone to speak to when your team isn’t available.

Your customers don’t always call at a convenient time.

You might be with a client, on a job, helping another customer or already closed for the day. DeskCover means the call can still be handled without pulling you away from what you’re doing.

Busy with a customer

Calls can still be handled while your attention is elsewhere.

Outside business hours

Give customers someone to speak to when your team has finished for the day.

Every call matters

Customers can get help without waiting for someone to call them back.

DeskCover picks up when you can't.

DeskCover works like a virtual receptionist for your business. It answers calls in a natural voice, handles common enquiries, asks the right questions and captures the information your business needs.

For salons, DeskCover can also answer questions about services and pricing, check appointment availability and help clients book, reschedule or cancel appointments, depending on the booking system you use.
