Talk
WebWorkstationMobileZynoTalk MobileThe Talk module is ZynoSuite's unified business communications system. Make and receive phone calls through the built-in softphone, review call history and recordings with AI-powered transcription and summarization, manage voicemail, hold SMS conversations, send and receive faxes, and generate communication reports — all from within ZynoSuite.
Permission Required
Talk access is managed on a per-number and per-extension basis. An administrator must grant your user access to specific phone numbers or extensions in the Talk Numbers and Talk Endpoints admin settings.
Getting There
Open Talk from the Home Launcher or the Quick Action Bar (QAB). The Talk interface uses a tabbed navigation with the following sections:
- Calls — Call history and CDR (Call Detail Records)
- Voicemail — Voicemail inbox with playback and transcription
- SMS — Text message conversations
- Fax — Sent and received fax documents
- Reports — Communication analytics and usage reports
Unread indicators appear on tabs when there are new voicemails, unread SMS messages, or unreviewed faxes.
Number & Extension Selector
At the top of the Talk interface, a selector lets you switch between the phone numbers and extensions you have access to. All call history, voicemail, SMS, and fax views are filtered to the currently selected number or extension. If you have access to multiple numbers, you can switch context at any time.
