Why answer beats text-back
Missed-call-text-back fires an SMS after the caller already hit voicemail — and studies of local services show most of those callers have already dialed the next result on Google. The text arrives; the job is gone. The only real fix is answering the call, every time, instantly. That's what Wotel does, with unlimited simultaneous capacity.
Wotel still uses smart text-back where it belongs: if a call drops mid-conversation or a caller hangs up before giving details, it automatically texts them to continue, creates a callback task, and alerts you — so even the broken calls turn into leads.

FAQ
Answers before you ask
Do I still need missed call text back with Wotel?
No — calls aren't missed in the first place. Wotel answers in under 2 seconds, 24/7, even when several people call at once. Dropped-call text-back is built in as a safety net.
What happens if a caller hangs up early?
Wotel texts them automatically to re-engage, creates a callback job with whatever was captured, and notifies you — the lead is never silently lost.
Does it send appointment confirmations by text?
Yes — every booking triggers an SMS confirmation, plus reminders before the appointment and follow-ups on quotes and invoices.
