Managing Email

One of the major modes of communication in any business is via email. When such is the case, imagine how easy it would be to view all the email conversations related to a contact or account right from Bigin?

Bigin allows you to configure your IMAP account with Bigin. This allows you to send email, view interactions with a record from Bigin itself, without switching multiple tabs.
