Real-time alerting for calls waiting in queue

  • 1.  Real-time alerting for calls waiting in queue

    Is there any way to get "real-time" alerting for calls waiting in queue that hit a particular threshold?

    For example, call waiting in queue hits 30 seconds and immediately notifies the desired users via in-app, email, and/or sms notification.

    I know Dashboards can alert you on this sort of thing once the call has been answered or disconnects, but I'm looking for real-time alerting, like we had with PureConnect.

    If this doesn't in exist in Genesys Cloud (we're in FedRAMP), when can we expect it to be implemented?

    Thanks!

    Hi Brandon,

    You can do that with Alert Rules

    You could create a queue alert for when Interactions waiting is greater than your threshold or using the "Single conversation total wait" is greater than your threshold if you want it based on time in queue.

    You can also choose whether is sends an SMS, Email or in-app pop up notification or any combination of the three and also choose which users it is sending them to.

    I am also going to move this question to the Reporting & Analytics Community

    Its funny you should say that, I was planning on doing a video about Alerts and Alert Rules very soon and this has re-affirmed it would probably be a good idea to do it :D

    Hi @Samuel Jillard

    If you can share the video here in this community posting that would be great.

    Hi, Sam! Thanks for a great video, enjoyed much how you explained the functionality in such an simple way and such a short time! 

    I;ve been exploring this functionality and trying to understand if I can help our business in the two following scenarios:

    As an intraday specialist I want to be able to receive alerts about interaction waiting longer than 3 minutes in a certain queue and a certain language, because in my country we handle interactions in four languages but only Italian has very little coverage by agents;

    As a team leader/supervisor I want to be able to receive alerts about agents from my workteam having ACW longer than 15 minutes, because it happens when their customer case is needing validation/authorisation and I want to support them, especially if they are new in the role.

    What kind of settings can I use to bring these two scenarios to life? :)
    Thanks again!

    Hi Kate

    Unfortunately there isn't a way to filter based on the queue wait + language or skill currently. But this seems like a valid concept to want these alerts, so I would recommend adding this to the ideas lab: Genesys Cloud Product Ideas Lab. Potentially you could get creative, but would need to add another queue for the Italian language that if an interaction waits for more than 3 minutes it flows out to the new queue and have an instant alert as soon as any interactions are waiting...or something similar.

    Your second scenario can work though with the following setup:

    I hope that helps and let us know if you do raise an idea for your first scenario and we can link it here for others to see/find if looking for the same functionality.

    hi, Sam! Thanks a lot! I will search for an idea - I think the one for reporting on skills in dashboards should be relevant for alerts too, since they use same backend :)
    We'll definitely not use another queue as we already have 40 per country...
    For the second scenario, I will share with the business and get back to you if more questions occur. 

    Thank you! Helpful as always :)
