Click to call from Chrome, with the call placed on your own phone

Click to call from Chrome in Weo Dialer joins the computer you read leads on with the phone you call them from. Click a phone number in Chrome on the computer and the phone running Weo Dialer dials it, as an ordinary call on the phone’s SIM. Three settings shape what happens next: which SIM the call uses, an auto-call setting for whether the phone starts the call by itself, and whether the call opens on speaker. Because Weo Dialer is the phone’s dialer, a call started from Chrome behaves like any call made on the handset. The lead’s name, status and last remark appear on the call screen, the after-call sheet takes the status, remark and next follow-up in two taps, and the call stays in the call history. Customers see your usual mobile number. Nothing is dialled through the browser itself, so no headset or internet calling plan is involved. Weo Dialer is the calling CRM app built by Weomate.

Click to call from Chrome for desk work

Plenty of selling starts at a desk. An office coordinator reads buyer enquiries in a marketplace seller panel, a property agent checks portal responses, an accountant goes through overdue invoices in the browser. Each of them then picks up a mobile phone and types ten digits by hand, reading them off the screen. It is slow, and a single wrong digit means calling a stranger.

Clicking the number in Chrome removes that step. The phone, propped beside the keyboard, starts the call on the business SIM, and with the speaker setting on, the coordinator can keep typing while the customer talks. When the call ends, the after-call sheet on the phone records the outcome, so the result is kept on the lead instead of in a browser tab. Sellers who work enquiries from marketplace panels will find the lead side on the IndiaMART lead management and Justdial leads CRM pages.

Click to call from Chrome vs browser calling

Click-to-call tools come in two kinds, and they suit different teams.

Browser softphones place the call over the internet from the computer, usually with a headset and a virtual or cloud number. They suit large call centres with seats and managed lines.

Phone-based click to call, the way Weo Dialer works, uses the computer only to pick the number. The call itself is a mobile call from the phone’s SIM, so customers see a familiar mobile number, calls are billed under your existing plan, and the call is recorded in the phone’s CRM like every other. The trade-off is that the phone has to be nearby, switched on and in signal. Teams deciding between their own SIM and virtual numbers will find the comparison on the dialer app for business page.

Click to call from Chrome setup

1. Install Weo Dialer on the phone and make it the default phone app through the guided setup.
2. Choose the settings for computer calls: the SIM, auto-call and speaker.
3. Link Chrome on the computer to the phone. Ask on WhatsApp for the current steps; the team helps with setup.
4. Test with a number you own, such as a colleague’s phone, to see the call start.
5. Work your enquiries from Chrome, saving each outcome on the after-call sheet.

Click to call from Chrome example

An illustration with round numbers, not a customer result.

A corrugated box maker in Bhubaneswar has one sales coordinator who spends the morning on a laptop, going through about 60 buyer enquiries from a B2B marketplace panel and from email. She used to read each number off the screen and type it into her phone, and two or three calls a day reached the wrong person because of a mistyped digit.

Now the phone sits on a stand beside the laptop with Weo Dialer set to SIM 1, the business SIM, and speaker on. She clicks a buyer’s number in Chrome, the phone dials it, and while the buyer explains the box size and quantity she types the specification into the quote sheet. When the call ends she picks “Quote to send” on the after-call sheet and sets a follow-up for 4 pm. The afternoon follow-ups then run as one session from the phone, the way the auto dialer app page describes.

Click to call from Chrome limits

Weo Dialer is the wrong choice when:

• You want calls to run through the browser. There is no browser softphone; the phone places every call.
• You work mainly in another browser. The feature is described for Chrome; ask first about others.
• You need to dial a long list. Clicking suits the odd number while reading; for a list, an auto dialer session on the phone is faster.
• The phone is not with you. The computer only picks the number, so the phone must be nearby, on and in signal.
• Your team uses iPhones. Ask on WhatsApp how dialling from the computer works there before relying on it.
