How it works

Getting started

Setup takes a few minutes, and you hear how your receptionist sounds before anything goes live.

01

Enter your business

Type in your business name or website. AllDayDesk pulls together what it finds, like your services, service area, and hours. You check the details and fix anything that's off, so it speaks for you accurately.

02

Hear a sample

Listen to a personalized sample of your receptionist. The sample doesn't book anything real. If you don't like how it sounds, you can adjust it before you turn it on.

03

Connect your phone

Keep your existing number. You'll forward calls to AllDayDesk, and the steps depend on your phone service. Once calls come through, every call, transcript, summary, and booking shows up in your dashboard.

How it handles your calls

Security system installers spend long stretches on ladders, in attics, or inside panels, so the phone often rings unanswered. Callers ask about camera installs, alarm panels, access control, monitoring plans, and site walkthroughs. Some are shopping prices, some have an alarm that won't stop beeping, and some are commercial property managers comparing bids. AllDayDesk answers those calls, collects the details you need before you quote, and books consultations into your calendar when you've configured it. It doesn't give security advice, quote prices you haven't saved, or troubleshoot alarm faults. When a caller needs your judgment, it takes a clear message so you can call back with a real answer.

Your receptionist asks what callers in this trade usually need to know: whether it's a home or a business, what kind of system they're after, and how to reach them. It books security consultations into your AllDayDesk calendar when you've set up bookable services and open slots. If you'd rather use Google Calendar, you can connect it in Settings after you authorize your account. It takes messages for anything that needs your call, like price quotes, alarm faults, or monitoring changes. It doesn't troubleshoot panels, give security advice, or promise response times. For urgent-sounding calls, it takes the details and the request lands in your dashboard so you can decide how fast to move.

Camera install

The receptionist asks whether it's a home or a business, how many cameras they have in mind, and where they'd want coverage. It books a consultation or takes a message with the details, so you can quote with the site in mind.

Alarm system

Callers want a new alarm or want to replace an old panel. The receptionist collects the property type and what they're replacing, then books a walkthrough. It doesn't walk anyone through panel troubleshooting over the phone.

Access control

Keypads, card readers, and door access questions come from both homeowners and property managers. The receptionist gathers the property details and what doors they want covered, then passes it to you as a message or a booked visit.

Service issue

A door sensor won't stop chirping or a camera dropped offline. The receptionist takes the caller's name, number, and what's happening, and logs it in your dashboard. It doesn't give repair steps, so nothing gets worse while they wait for your call.

Monitoring question

Callers ask about monitoring plans or want to change an existing one. The receptionist shares what you've saved about your plans, or takes a message if the answer isn't there. Plan changes stay your decision, not the receptionist's.

Commercial walkthrough

Property managers often call after hours to set up a site walkthrough. The receptionist collects the property type, location, and what they need covered, then books a time from your configured slots or takes a detailed message.

Security System Installers: your questions answered

Can it book site walkthroughs and consultations?

Yes, when you've set up bookable services and your availability in the AllDayDesk calendar. Callers can book a security consultation for an open slot. If you prefer Google Calendar, you can connect it in Settings after you authorize your account. If you haven't configured booking yet, the receptionist takes a message with the property details instead.

What happens when someone calls about an alarm going off right now?

The receptionist takes the caller's name, number, and what's happening, and the request lands in your dashboard. It doesn't troubleshoot panels or promise how fast you'll respond. You read the message and decide how quickly to call back.

Will it quote prices over the phone?

Only prices you've saved in your business details. Camera and alarm work usually needs a site look first, so most callers get booked for a consultation or leave a message. If the receptionist doesn't have an answer, it says so and takes a message.

Can callers reach me directly for urgent jobs?

You can set up call transfers to a number you choose, with your own rules for when they happen. Pickup isn't guaranteed, since you might be on a ladder or in a panel. Anything that doesn't reach you shows up as a message in your dashboard.

Do I have to change my phone number?

No. You keep your existing number and forward calls to AllDayDesk. The exact steps depend on your phone service, and you can stop forwarding whenever you want.

Can it change an existing customer's appointment?

It can take the request and pass it to you, but changes to existing appointments aren't confirmed until you approve them. That keeps your schedule in your hands.

Hear your receptionist before you commit
