Conversations Usability Improvements

SMBcrm has updated Communication workflows in Conversations to reduce friction during active chats and calls. These changes make it easier to update contact details, switch channels, and move through the interface without losing context.

What changed

View call transcripts and update contact details at the same time

Previously, opening a call transcript covered the contact details panel. Now, call transcripts open in the center panel so you can review the transcript and update contact information at the same time.

Send emails during calls without refreshing

If a contact shared their email address during a call, adding it previously did not enable the email channel until the page was refreshed. The composer now updates in real time, so you can stay on the call and send an email without interruption.

Call option restored when starting a new conversation

The call option is again available when you start from the Create New Conversation flow, making it easier to place a call from a new conversation.

Better translations and support for longer text

SMBcrm has added missing translations and improved how longer text is handled in the interface. This helps prevent layout issues and keeps the Conversations experience more consistent across languages.

Why it matters

These usability improvements help teams work faster in Conversations, especially during live calls where context switching and page refreshes can interrupt communication.
