Abstract:
In a method for managing a contact center system, the method includes: retrieving, by a processor, performance metric data for a plurality of performance metrics of the contact center system; initiating, by the processor, a text-based chat communication with a first electronic device operated by a first agent; displaying, by the processor, an alert during the text-based chat communication, the alert being indicative that a first performance metric from among the plurality of performance metrics is outside a predetermined range of values; and displaying, by the processor, the first performance metric in a chat interface of the text-based chat communication.
Abstract:
A system and method for composing a routing strategy for a contact center via a graphical user interface. The graphical user interface provides a plurality of selectable blocks and a workspace for assembling selected ones of the plurality of blocks. Each of the plurality of blocks is associated with logic for managing an interaction with the contact center. A processor receives identification of one of the blocks and identification of a location in the workspace area relative to other blocks in the workspace area, and places the identified block in the identified location. The processor generates the routing strategy based on the blocks in the workspace area and location of the blocks relative to each other in the workspace area. The processor also stores a layout of the blocks in the workspace area as a routing diagram for the routing strategy. The processor activates the routing strategy for managing the inbound interaction according to the activated routing strategy.
Abstract:
A method for preloading a user interface, the method comprising: anticipating, by a processor, an interaction with a customer of a customer contact center; creating, by the processor, an agent desktop session based on this anticipation; storing, by the processor, the agent desktop session in association with information for the customer; detecting, by the processor, an interaction with the customer; identifying, by the processor, an agent of the customer contact center for routing the interaction to the agent; and launching, by the processor, the agent desktop session on an agent device of the identified agent.

Abstract:
A method for operating a mobile communication appliance enabled for Near Field Communication (NFC) has steps for (a) positioning the communication appliance and an article associated with a person, the article enabled for NFC and storing a unique identifier, within a near-field threshold; (b) acquiring by the communication appliance through NFC the unique digital identifier from the article; and (c) using the identifier to select and initiate a particular functionality of the communication appliance.
Abstract:
A method for anticipating and preloading data in a customer contact center, the method comprising: monitoring, by a processor, an interaction of an agent of the customer contact center, with an agent device, during a communication session with a customer of the customer contact center; anticipating, by the processor, data to be accessed during a communication session; pre-loading, by the processor, the data in a memory device; detecting, by the processor, a request for the data; and providing, by the processor, the data for output on the agent device in response to the request.
Abstract:
A system includes a contact center to provide an interaction between a customer and an agent workstation of the contact center. A contact center network connects a call from a mobile device to an interactive voice response application. A mobile engagement platform collect authentication information from the mobile device to authenticate a customer using the mobile device. A short message service platform sends a link to connect the mobile device to a mobile application. The mobile engagement server authenticates the customer of the mobile device for the mobile application based on the collected authentication information.

Abstract:
A system for sharing a physical display screen among multiple applications on a mobile platform includes an Internet-connected client device and software executing on the client device from a non-transitory physical medium, the software providing a first function assigning dominancy to one of the multiple running applications, a second function mitigating application background transparency among the multiple running applications, a third function establishing a messaging mechanism and protocol between the multiple running applications, and a fourth function enabling the dominant application to intercept digital input directed toward individual ones of the multiple running applications and to dispatch the input to the appropriate application.
