======Greetings Catalog======

Cloud PBX allows each company to sound unique and convey most useful information to customers when they listen to greetings and notifications. Replace standard messages with your files and tell your customers about important things before an employee even answers a call.




You can create and upload in advance dozens of files to the greetings catalog. It will let you quickly change greetings depending on what you want to tell your customers while they are waiting for an employee to respond (it can be advertising messages or any other news items that concern your company and are important to your customers).

This setting is available in all sections where playing a voice message by Cloud PBX takes place:



  * greetings for [[numbers|phone numbers]],


  * an offer to leave a message to a voicemail in the [[groups|Departments]] settings,


  * a notification that conversations with an employee can be [[record|recorded]],


  * a notification about forwarding to a personal manager in the [[crm|CRM integration]] settings.

You can change the greeting at any time by selecting from previously uploaded files or adding a new one. You also always have access to the standard notification and the ability to create a greeting by converting a text message to speech (the **[[text-to-speech|Text-to-Speech feature]]**).
