Verifying users from contacts in visitor history

Info
Note to customers: This feature is a part of our upcoming Summer ’26 release and will be rolled out in phases. If you would like early access to explore the feature, please fill out this form.

You now have a dedicated users section within the Visitor History module to help you clearly separate verified users from regular contacts and anonymous visitors in Zoho SalesIQ. This helps improves customer identification and makes it easier for operators to access authenticated user information quickly.

A dedicated users section is now available in the Visitor History module that displays verified or authenticated users separately from general contacts and anonymous visitors that helps operators focus on genuine user interactions and maintain better customer context during engagements.

Notes
As of now, only WhatsApp-verified users are displayed in the Users section.

Verified users are:

  • Visitors who were identified through authentication
  • Verified WhatsApp users
  • Visitors who shared verified account information
  • Visitors who are mapped to registered customer profiles

In the SalesIQ side panel > Visitors, you can find the Users section.
