Contacts
Contacts Overview
View, manage, and organize every contact in Cloodot.
Everyone who has messaged you through a connected channel ends up here. Contacts are the people behind your conversations — where you learn about them, organize them, and keep track of who needs follow-up.
The three contact views
Click Contacts in the sidebar and you'll see three views:
- All — Every contact in a searchable table
- Leads — A visual board for tracking potential customers
- Segments — Your saved groups of contacts
