DEEP DIVE

Key Differences Explained

Instant Response vs Queue Times

Virtual receptionist services route your calls to available operators. During peak times, callers wait on hold or get voicemail. Frontly answers every call within 3 rings, simultaneously handling as many calls as needed.

Deep Industry Knowledge vs Generic Scripts

Virtual receptionists follow basic scripts and take messages. Frontly searches your Rex CRM listings in real-time, qualifies buyers based on budget and criteria, and books viewings directly into your calendar.
