Accessibility Software

  • 1.  Accessibility Software

    Posted 02-08-2021 05:03
    Hi Everyone

    Has anyone had any experience of agents requiring software to enable them to use the Genesys Cloud UI for accessibility purposes?

    I have a customer who has agents using JAWS, Nuance Dragon Naturally Speaking & TextHelp Read & Write.

    Apart from the Keyboard shortcuts are there any features to configure keyboard shortcuts / Access keys to navigate through the Desktop application?

    Thanks in advance

    Not a lot right now... keen to hear other user's experiences with this.

    It looks like better accessibility support is coming, based on the WCAG guidelines- see https://genesyscloud.ideas.aha.io/ideas/CLPLA-I-149.

    Ramon, 

    i know this idea was raised a very long time ago but did anything come of it ?. I have tried to search for the idea but can't seem to find it.

    I've had some success with users using an AppFoundry product for shortcuts - shortyDings, in combination with Jaws.  Really is something there should be more native support for.

    Thanks @Ramon Szeitszam ! Bit confusing with my old account... 

    @Richard Craig give me a buzz on will.bellerby@cxlogiq.com and we can go from there.

    Hi Dann,

    We have a custom UI for blind people which works with JAWS and other screen readers. 
    Would be happy to give you a demo if you're interested?

    Hey Will, is this something you guys have on the AppFoundry or only direct?  I wouldn't mind finding out more about it but obviously wary about the commercials involved :)

    Hey - this is something we've developed in-house and offer our customers, perhaps we should put it on the Appfoundary though??
    Drop us a line, we'd be happy to show you and talk about commercials :)

    Might be good on the AppFoundry, doesn't look like there's much like it out there, if anything.  I'm more interested for myself rather than as on behalf of NTT.  I've worked with a lot of physically or visually challenged people in the past so this stuff always piques my interest.

    Hi Will,

    You definitely should consider listing it on the AppFoundry.  It's easy to get started: https://appfoundry.genesys.com/docs/joining.

    Will,
    We might be interested in your custom UI. We have an agent who is visually impaired and needs something like this. Are you selling this solution?
