Management of agent sessions for omnichannel predictive outbound
Abstract:
As “call centers” continue to be replaced with omnichannel contact centers, managing a plurality of simultaneous media channels becomes more important. Contacting a customer on one channel and, at the customer or agent's request, initiating a second channel that delays the interaction will having limited acceptance and, in some jurisdictions, may be illegal. By nailing-up an agent half-communication with a number of channels, agents maintain a perpetual connection comprising an agent half-communication to a server, such as one serving as a media anchor point, share point, etc. The customer half-connection is established to a server and the agent, already connected, is joined. As a result, the customer experiences a greatly reduced delay between the time they answer and being greeted by an agent, regardless of the media type or types utilized.
