Voice and video calls

We understand that more and more companies start using Bitrix24 for video calls and voice calls, so we're working hard on improving the connection quality. Thanks for using Bitrix24!

Video and voice calls between employees

To call an employee:

  • Type the employee's name to the Search bar in Bitrix24 Messenger > click Voice call or Video call:
  • Allow Bitrix24 Messenger to access camera and microphone > start conversation.
If you has restricted access to camera and microphone, you can undo these changes in the browser settings. For example, in Google Chrome you should go to Settings > Privacy and security > Site settings > Permissions > find your Bitrix24 account address and allow access to camera and microphone.

You can send text messages to the user you are talking to, or send messages to other users while video calling.

You can also invite new users to a chat while video calling.


Group calls

Create a private group chat and perform a video call to start a group call.

You can also invite other users after starting the call or disconnect from it.

Call window will appear in the same chat window when calling in the browser.

Important:
  • The calls are available in both private and public chats.
  • The calls are available in the browser, the Desktop and Mobile app.
