Gong Engage allows seamless handling of incoming calls by providing call notifications with caller information directly on your browser. You can log and record inbound calls, view outcomes in Engage Analytics, and set up receiving calls on your personal forwarding number and browser. Ensure notifications are enabled, Do Not Disturb mode is off, and Gong is open in your browser to receive calls. Call notifications ring on both browser and forwarding number, with details displayed if the number is assigned to a contact. Missed calls trigger email notifications, and inbound call data is included in performance metrics. Recording and logging calls is possible if allowed by company settings.
With Gong Engage, handling incoming calls is seamless. Get call notifications with caller information straight from your browser, then log and record the call just as you would with outbound calls. Plus, you’ll see inbound calls and outcomes in Engage Analytics.

How inbound calls work
Open Gong: Gong must be open somewhere in your browser to receive inbound calls (can be minimized). If it’s not open, the call will be forwarded to your personal forwarding number (if set)
Call notifications: When you receive an inbound call, it will ring on both your browser and any personal forwarding number you have set. If the number is already assigned to a contact or lead, the you’ll see the person’s details. If the number is not assigned to a contact or lead, you’ll just see the number.
Notifications will appear on your desktop and within your Gong browser tab. You’ll also receive notifications for missed calls.
If you answer an inbound call from an unknown number, you can easily assign the number to an existing contact or lead in Gong while logging the call.
Recording and logging: If your company’s settings allow, you can easily record these calls and log the outcomes via the Gong Dialer, just like outbound calls. The recording settings your admin has set apply to both outbound and inbound calls
Missed calls: If you miss an inbound call, Gong will send you an email with the caller’s details for you to follow up
Calls from flows: When you make a call from within a flow and the recipient calls you back, the flow will pause, and you’ll receive an email notification
Engage Analytics: Inbound call data is included in the metrics displayed on the Performance tab
