Trigger & Send Automate WhatsApp Messages
With WhatsApp4Dynamics, automate sending messages through workflows within Dynamics 365 CRM. Users can set up triggers and actions based on specific events, such as sending automated WhatsApp messages for order confirmations or appointment reminders. This automation saves time, reduces manual effort, and ensures timely communication.
