What can I build?
Let your imagination run wild! All we are asking for is either a productivity app in Zoho Cliq or a website bot/widget in Zoho SalesIQ. The rest is up to you (just be sure to follow the rules listed below)
Cliq- Zoho Cliq is a business communication and collaboration platform. With numerous productivity tools and integrations, Cliq helps users get work done faster.
- You need to build an extension or integration for Zoho Cliq using the Cliq platform. This extension should help users collaborate better and keep their work organized.
- You can either build a stand-alone extension in Cliq or an integration connecting Cliq with a third-party application.
SalesIQ- Zoho SalesIQ is a customer engagement platform. Businesses use the live chat app in SalesIQ to engage with the visitors to their website or mobile app.
- Live chat applications work best with a bot that engages with visitors by answering questions. You need to build a new bot to communicate with and guide site/app visitors. You can also build a widget in SalesIQ to display relevant information when an operator chats with a visitor.
- Your bot should engage with visitors, collect information from them, trigger a workflow and reduce operators’ workload. The widget that you build should be able to pull data about a visitor from third-party apps and display them inside the operator chat window to make conversations more relevant.
