New Version of Connect from Intelecom puts organisations in control of social media

Oct. 28, 2014 - PRLog -- Intelecom Group AS has introduced new functionality and added a series of product enhancements to Connect, the company’s flagship multichannel cloud contact centre solution.  Available from the end of October 2014, the latest version of Connect provides more control and availability for contact centre leaders and enables faster, more effective handling of social media requests in a single, integrated application.

Klaas van der Leest, managing director, Intelecom UK Ltd said, ”The latest release is designed to put managers and agents in complete control of their contact centre environment using a flexible, cost-efficient, all-in-one package.  In an increasingly mobile world where immediacy is critical to successful customer engagement, the latest version of Connect enables organisations to deal with customer enquiries whatever the channel.  Intelecom is  ISO27001 accredited and therefore understands the real-life security concerns of a growing number of businesses which are demanding the highest levels of security from providers of cloud based services.”

In the latest release of Connect, all customer enquiries via Facebook, Twitter, chat and telephone are handled simultaneously from the same screen.  This reduces the number of interfaces agents have to manage, leading to faster, more effective enquiry handling and increased customer satisfaction.

Intelecom has developed a brand new home page for Connect Control, the administrator and management interface in Connect that provides contact centre leaders with the intelligence they need to improve decision-making and take corrective action swiftly.  The home page now delivers vital live data from up-to-date incident messages to the latest product information, news and user tips.  By far the biggest benefit of the new home page is the graphical display of real-time information that instantly pops up giving managers clear visibility of contact centre activity without having to refer to wallboards or other parts of the system.

In addition users can now access Connect Control from a multitude of mobile devices including the latest Apple and Android operating system smart phones. This increases data availability and allows important changes to be made by managers from anywhere at any time.

The latest release also sees Connect enable managers to produce reports and then schedule them to be sent automatically by email to chosen recipients at selected times of the day, week or month.  This delivers significant time savings and promotes consistency.

In September 2014, Intelecom announced that it had achieved ISO27001:2013 accreditation, the latest update of the world’s most recognised standard for information security. The certification was awarded after a review by external auditors lasting just six months, further endorsing the security and strength of Intelecom’s data policies and processes.
