Team collaboration starts where social work gets messy
Sprout connects every layer of that work—automated routing from the Smart Inbox, team and individual Case assignments, intentional permissions in Publishing, and integrations to break down silos—into a single shared operating space. Your team sees the same picture. And acts on it together.
1
Collaborate inside one shared inbox
Sprout's Smart Inbox streams messages from all connected profiles into one filterable view, with real-time indicators showing exactly who's already on it.
2
Turn messages into owned work
Convert any inbound social message into a tracked case with a designated owner, status, and full activity history—so nothing stalls between teams.
3
Keep content moving without losing control
A shared Publishing Calendar, collaborative drafts, and role-based profile permissions give distributed teams a clear, structured path from first idea to published post.
See who's replying before replies overlap
Collision Detection surfaces real-time indicators the moment a teammate opens or responds to a message in the Smart Inbox. Ownership becomes visible before the work begins—which means faster resolutions and zero duplicate replies.
- Collision Detection shows in real time when a teammate is viewing or replying to a message
- Marking messages complete signals across the whole team instantly—no follow-up required
- Custom Inbox Views let each team member filter to the conversations that need their attention right now
Connect social with support and CRM workflows
A social reply is often the start of a larger customer relationship. Sprout's integrations with Salesforce, Agentforce Service, Zendesk, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and more keep social and support teams operating from shared context—not separate threads.
- Create, track, reply to and resolve helpdesk tickets from social messages without switching platforms
- Match social contacts to Salesforce records by profile, name, or email for a unified customer view
- Keep social, support, and sales teams aligned so no customer interaction falls through the gap
