Abstract:
A network system for enabling voice interaction between communications-center applications and human agents remote from the center has a primary server connected to the network the server controlling at least one routing point used by the center, a secondary server connected to the network the secondary server for generating and serving voice extensible markup language, a voice gateway associated with the secondary server, the gateway for executing voice extensible markup language and recognizing speech input, and a software platform based in the primary server and distributed in part as a server application to the secondary server, the software suite functioning as a data transformation interface between the center applications and the gateway. In a preferred use agents and applications communicate bi-directionally using VXML.
Abstract:
An apparatus is provided and includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions that when executed from a non-transitory physical medium by the processor cause the processor to detect when a request for interaction that is configured for a scheduled processing is received or otherwise registered at a service access point associated with a contact center, identify schedule data from the request and add the schedule data along with a request identification and a location identifier to a scheduling and reporting application, consult a contact center interaction routing system in response to determining that the scheduled interaction request is to be processed, and route or cause processing of the interaction request based on the schedule data. According to one embodiment, the schedule data includes a scheduled time and date for processing the request.
Abstract:
A method for displaying context information on a user device, the method includes: identifying a triggering event associated with a contact; identifying a user associated with the user device; identifying a personalized configuration profile is based on at least one of an attribute of the contact attribute or an attribute of the user; identifying the context information associated with the personalized configuration profile; and retrieving the context information for displaying on the user device.
Abstract:
A system and method for making engagement offers. A processor monitors a navigation path of a user navigating a website. The processor makes an offer for engagement with the user on a first web page reached by the user upon following the navigation path. The processor monitors a reaction of the user to the offer for engagement, and updates tag data associated with a second web page encountered by the user while traversing the navigation path. The tag data is updated based on the reaction of the user to the offer for engagement.
Abstract:
A system for scheduling resources and rules for routing includes a server connected to a network, a scheduling application executable from the server, and at least one programmable software agent for scheduling routing rules. The scheduling application receives statistics about forecast arrival rates for incoming interactions and current resource availability data and schedules resources and routing rules according to the forecast requirements the software agent propagating the portion of scheduling relative to the routing rules.
Abstract:
A system and method for simulating an interaction between a customer and an agent of a customer contact center. A processor receives input conditions for simulating the interaction and generates a model of the customer based on the input conditions. The processor receives a first action from an agent device associated with the agent and updates a state of the simulation model based on the first action. The processor identifies a second action of the simulation model in response to the updated state, executes the second action, determines an outcome of the simulation, and provides the outcome to the agent device. In response to the outcome, the agent is prompted to take an action different from the second action.
Abstract:
In one implementation an apparatus is provided, comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to access a pre-designed graphical user interface (GUI) framework, load into the GUI, first party and third party call controls, load into the GUI, representations of telephony objects, load into the GUI, at least one interactive link to one or more scripting tools, load into the GUI, a interactive user control panel, load into the GUI, a digital tone detector, display the GUI on a computing appliance monitor, and display current call state for one or more call connection types.
Abstract:
A system and method include a customer engagement platform of an enterprise. The customer engagement platform is configured to connect with an audience computer and provide to the audience computer contact information associated with a marketing attribution. The marketing attribution accompanies an impression served to the audience computer. The impression and marketing attribution associated with the contact information are sent to the customer engagement platform during an interaction with the enterprise.
Abstract:
A call center system has a computerized server executing software (SW) from a machine-readable medium, a data collection function of the SW enabled for collecting data regarding incoming transactions, a data processing function coupled to the data collection engine and enabled for processing the data collected against a set of business rules, the data processing function determining a priority level for individual ones of the incoming transactions, and a distribution function enabled for distributing a priority indication determined by the data processing function to one or more presentation interfaces accessible to agents, at or near the time the associated transaction is engaged by the agent.
