How to place calls

Upon signing in, click the Calls tab to navigate to the Calls page. The page is divided into two distinct sections:

  4. Once you locate the contact, hover over their name and click the blue phone icon to initiate the call.

Placing a call from the Contacts menu

  1. Click Contacts in the left menu.
