Assign contacts to User

Maybe this exists and we dont know it. However, there should be an option to assign contacts to a User.  We are using Civi in our call center and we are making a lot of phone calls.

Currently, we have a User, then we create a Group for the user, and then we add contacts to the group for the User. So when the User logs in, he/she will only see their contacts,

This sucks as far as usability as the work flow is challenging. There is not an easy way to navigate the contacts. After each phone call an activity is logged and then the User has to go back to Manage Groups and the select a new contact.

If there is a better way I would love to know about it.

Xavier,

I am reviewing CiviCampaigns. Do you have any literature on this? I am trying to figure out how to configure a campaign and it is not too self explanatory. Any help would be very much appreciated.
