ContactRoll Ask for early access

Support email that behaves like a queue.

Customers email you. ContactRoll turns the thread into a case with an owner and a clock, keeps the whole history of who that person is, and fits on the phone you actually triage from.

Not open yet. This asks to be told when it is.

The case queue for an organization called Ledgerline Support. Five cases in a table of number, subject, waiting, contact, product, priority, status, owner and last updated. The two waiting on a reply are at the top, the longest of them showing 2d in red; below them the two waiting on the customer, and a closed one last. Above the table, filter chips read Mine 2, Unassigned 1 and Needs Reply 2.
The queue, sorted by who is waiting and for how long.

What it does

Mail in, mail out, one thread

A customer writes to your support address and a case opens. Your reply goes back out from the same thread, and their answer lands on the same case rather than opening a second one. Threading carries in a plus-address tag with a marker in the subject line as a fallback, because mail clients rewrite and drop headers and a scheme with one mechanism fails silently when they do.

The queue knows who is waiting

Every case is waiting on you, waiting on the customer, or finished — worked out from when each side last spoke, not from a status somebody remembered to change. What you owe someone sorts to the top, longest wait first, and a wait past a day turns red. An empty queue reads like good news instead of like an error.

Owners, not a shared inbox

A case belongs to a person. Take it in one click, filter to yours, or filter to the ones nobody has picked up — counted over open work only, because "nine unassigned" that includes last year is a number nobody can act on.

The customer, not just the ticket

Every case that person has ever raised, on one page, with their plan and their product beside it and room for notes your colleagues leave each other. A case shows how much else of theirs is still open before you start typing.

The files they sent

Attachments are kept in private storage and handed back as a download that expires in a minute — never rendered in a browser, whatever the sender called the file or claimed it was. And if one is too big to keep, the case says so where the file would have been, because a screenshot that vanished quietly is worse than one that was refused.

It tells you when somebody writes in

A new case emails the organization; a reply emails whoever owns it. Each person decides for themselves whether to be emailed, and nobody is emailed about a message they sent.

Your team, with the seats you meant

Invite people as agents or admins. Invitations expire, work only for the address they were issued to, and tell a stranger nothing about whether that address is registered. Each organization’s data is separated in the database itself, not by a filter somebody remembered to write.

It works on the phone you triage from

Not "responsive" as an afterthought: the queue is read at 375 pixels wide, a long subject is clamped to two lines with the customer named underneath, and every control is big enough to hit with a thumb. Checked at that width by a browser suite that drives the deployed site, rather than by somebody being asked to look.

What it looks like

Priya Raman's page. Her email address, product and plan tier across the top, the cases she has raised beneath that, and two notes underneath — one written by the person looking at the screen, which offers Edit and Delete, and one by a colleague, which offers neither.
Who you are replying to, before you reply.
A case about a bank feed that stopped syncing. Labelled dropdowns for priority, status and owner across the top; the message the customer sent, with the file that came with it shown beneath as "bank-feed-log.pdf" followed by "PDF · 630 B"; then the thread, including a colleague's internal note on a tinted background; and a reply box with a checkbox for emailing the reply to the customer.
The thread, the file they sent, and the reply going back out.

On a phone

The same queue on a phone-sized screen. Each subject is clamped to two lines with the customer's name underneath it, and the waiting time and status columns are still there; contact, product, priority, owner and date have been dropped, and the filter chips fade out at the right edge where they scroll sideways.
The same queue at 375 pixels wide.

Worth knowing

  • One support address per organization, generated — never your customer’s to guess.
  • Tenancy enforced by the database, and tested on every change to the schema.
  • Attachments in a private bucket; every link is a download with a sixty-second life.
  • No tracking on this page. No analytics, no chat widget, no third-party script at all.
