# Bitrix24 integration
Bitrix24 includes over 35 integrated tools, including CRM, tasks, Kanban board, Gantt chart, messenger, video calls, file storage, workflow automation, and more. With over 12 million users, Bitrix24 is one of the most popular business software solutions.
With sipgate, you can make calls directly from Bitrix24 and use your contacts in the sipgate app. This way, you always see which contact is calling and do not have to switch between different tools. sipgate is your phone system with the telephony app for desktop and mobile.

#### How does Click2Dial work with Bitrix24?
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: The sipgate app currently only registers for tel:, so callto: must be changed to tel: in the CRM.
{% endhint %}
You can simply ask Bitrix24 AI how to change the formatting from callto: to tel:.\
Alternatively, you can jump directly to the formatting via the link [Name.bitrix24.de/crm/configs/config/?CRM\_SM\_CONFIG\_active\_tab=tab\_format](http://name.bitrix24.de/crm/configs/config/?CRM_SM_CONFIG_active_tab=tab_format) or via CRM ➔ Settings ➔ CRM settings ➔ Miscellaneous ➔ Other settings ➔ Format: save the link in the format callto: "custom format"\
// template URL: tel:\[phone]\
Current phone numbers and new phone numbers are now stored formatted as tel:phone number and then open the default app for tel: calls.
