Connect Cloze to The Work Apps You Love (May 2016)

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Slack, Dropbox, Google Docs, OneNote, OneDrive and more.

With this new release we are bringing several new integrations to Cloze including support for Slack, Dropbox, Google Drive, Google Docs, OneNote and OneDrive.

We’re also introducing our first bot. With Clozebot you can schedule to-dos, search for contacts, and ask questions like “what’s next on my agenda” right from Slack. Cloze automatically links your Slack conversations to people, companies, projects and deals so you have a complete view of your internal and external conversations. Continuing with our personal assistant approach, Clozebot will even remind you to follow-up with a customer if you are out of touch. Keep an eye out – we’ll launching bots for other platforms soon too.

Whether you are using Cloze Pro or Cloze Business you now have automatic visibility across the primary productivity tools found in today’s workplace: Slack, Dropbox, Google for Work (Drive, Docs, Mail, Calendar etc), Microsoft Office 365 (OneNote, OneDrive, Mail, Calendar etc.) and Evernote. You use the apps you love and Cloze brings it together automatically into one view of every person, company, project and deal – all their contact details, and your complete history – every email back and forth, your phone calls together, meetings, notes, files, social, and messages.
