Hello there, I am working on a project where we are aiming to integrate our VoiceGuide IVR system with our CRM software. The goal is to ensure a seamless flow of information between the two systems, so that customer data is automatically updated in our CRM based on interactions with the IVR. We are using a relatively complex setup where the IVR needs to interact with the CRM in real-time, pulling up customer records as they call in and logging their interaction history after the call. Additionally; we want to trigger follow-up actions in the CRM based on specific inputs from the caller. What are the best practices for ensuring real-time data syncing between VoiceGuide and the CRM? Should we be using webhooks, APIs, or some other method? How do you handle scenarios where the CRM is temporarily unavailable or slow to respond? Is there a way to queue the data or retry the operation without impacting the caller experience? What measures should we take to secure the data transfer between VoiceGuide and our CRM; especially if we are dealing with sensitive customer information? Are there any tips for optimizing the performance of this integration; particularly in high-call-volume environments? Thanks in advance for your help and assistance.
