How it works

Every customer conversation, linked to the job

No more hunting through WhatsApp to find what was said about a job. Every message is stored in Coglass against the order it belongs to.

  1. Connect your channels

    Connect your Gmail or Outlook mailbox in Settings — a one-time setup you do yourself. Texts go out through Coglass's own SMS service under your company name, with a monthly allowance on every plan. WhatsApp is approved by Meta, and one-click connect is switching on shortly — included in your plan, with its own monthly message allowance. Facebook Messenger is coming soon.

  2. Message from the order

    Open any order and reply by email or SMS from the order screen. The customer's contact details are pre-filled — no copying numbers between apps.

  3. Replies come in automatically

    Customer emails land in the Coglass inbox and can be linked to the right order in one click. Messages from the chat on their quote or tracking page go straight onto the order, with a notification to the office.

  4. Set up automated notifications

    Configure automation rules that trigger SMS or email messages automatically when job status changes — glass ready, fitter on the way, job complete. Your customers stay informed without anyone lifting a finger.

  5. Start from templates

    Automation rules come with ready-made messages for the common moments — booking confirmed, glass ready, on the way. Variables like {customerName} and {orderNumber} fill in from the job.

  6. Full message history

    Emails and chat messages are kept with the order, so anyone picking up the job sees what was said.
