Sorry - when I was referring to over the years, I have been using Genesys outbound products since 2018. Originally using the soundbite product, and upgraded to CX Contact.
Unfortunately, you hear different answers on who is using what products in what spaces. Many times I find that this relates back to how their account at Genesys is set up, one of the onboarding questions is something like "Do you want to be used as a reference?" many say no, so when that is "No" Genesys can't share that someone is using the product.
Awesome to hear it's resolved.
Always happy to discuss anything CX Contact related.

"Over the years?" CXContact has only been since Q2 2020. This organization was told they were going to be the third customer to go live back in May 2020 and the previous two were using only SMS, not voice.
All the settings are as you mentioned, and Genesys has been involved. The issues were taken care of carrier by carrier via tweaking by Genesys on the back end. I learned just a few minutes ago that the last carrier has been successfully tested. Strange that it has taken this long to work through all of these issues given it's a UI layer on top of OCS.
Thanks for your reply. It looks like this is finally closed out. Hopefully those settings will be used for other customers.

Hey Kevin -
Very few complaints of that over the years. Just to be sure you have configured a DN application to handle leaving a voicemail right? this is on the treatments tab of the campaign group - its slightly different if you are using device escalation, but I think it's intuitive enough to see once you are on that screen.
The other place you can control answering machine detection settings is on the advanced tab for the campaign group. I find to use the Answer type recognition: "Accurate AM Detection" to be the one I liked best. Here is the documentation for the different answering types. https://docs.genesys.com/Documentation/CXC/Current/CXCHelp/PacingOptions#Advanced_Dialing_Options
If you haven't dealt with these before, I do recommend working with genesys, as they are the only ones who can view the OCS logs/Media Server to see what is happening.
I also have the call wait connected timeout set to 30 seconds.
Happy to take a look if you want to do a screenshare.

Thanks Austin. What is your experience with detecting voice mail and the ability to leave messages? I've been working with an organization that hasn't been able to do this in their extensive testing across many carriers and it has held back their moving to CXContact.

Hey Kevin -
Yes, we have been using CX Contact.
I am happy to answer any questions you have about it.
We are running about 2 million calls a year through it.

Curious if anyone is using CXContact and if so, are you using it for voice?
