  • 1.  Power Dialling

    Posted 08-08-2018 06:24

    Hi everyone, 

    We've recently trialled power & progressive dialling but have found that when the customer is called and they answer, they hear hold music and then the agent is presented with the call which they have to answer. Can anyone share any best practices to prevent this and just have the call connect to an available agent? If an agent is not available, shouldn't the call drop rather than go on hold?

    Appreciate the help!

    Andrew

    Good morning Andrew,

    We have our outbound calls set to auto answer, allowing the call to be automatically connected to the agent instead of the agent have to select "Answer" first.

    If you go under Admin-People and Permissions-People,   click on the individuals name(s) that you want to have auto answer set up for.  Go under the "Phone" tab for that individual, and there is an option to set to auto answer.



    Hope this helps,
    Amanda

    You will need to go into Architect and change the default flow for In-queue flow, remove the play audio which is the hold music and replace with a blank audio lowest possible (100ms). Either way it still takes 2 seconds to connect to an agent.

    Change hold music before connecting to an agent
