Intelecom adds Silent Monitoring and Enhanced Media Archive Functionality to Connect

April 15, 2014 - PRLog -- Intelecom Group AS, today announced the latest release of Connect, its multichannel cloud based contact centre solution. The new release sees enhanced functionality for Connect Control the management and reporting portal of Connect, which now includes Silent Monitoring of agent telephone calls in real time.  In addition the Connect Media Archive module has been extended to cover the storing and retrieval of web Chat Conversations to help resolve customer queries and identify required service changes.

Christian Thorsrud, Product Manager at Intelecom Group AS explained, “As more customer engagement channels are handled by contact centres the added complexity this introduces means there is an increased requirement for monitoring, coaching and training of agents.  Contact centre managers need to have the right monitoring tools in place to maintain quality, resolve escalated queries and coach agents so they can improve and gain job satisfaction by delivering exceptional customer service.”

The new Silent Monitoring feature allows managers to listen to calls in real time by selecting agents, time slots and the number of calls required.  When a manager is listening to a call Connect Control displays the caller’s number, access number, agent name and queue name.  There is an option for agents to be made aware the call is being listened to as a headset icon appears on their screen. Real time monitoring quickly identifies any process change or training requirements. Likewise agents can be praised and excellent service rewarded boosting employee morale.

Managers are also able to use Connect Media Archive to retrieve Chat conversations in the same way as voice calls. The archive includes information about how long the Chatter waited in the queue, the name of the agent, how long the conversation lasted and more.  In addition a log of the chat between the agent and the Chatter is available showing the content of the Chat conversation.

Christian Thorsrud continued, “Connect Control provides advanced management and reporting in the contact centre with a high level of administrator functionality.  Intelecom customers tell us that the ability to monitor, manage and control the contact centre online and from within a single interface is a major advantage.  With added functionality to Silent Monitoring and Media Archive, within the new release of Connect, managers will have the information they need to concentrate on helping agents provide an exceptional customer experience regardless of the channel used.
