INTEGRATED PRESENCE
When the operator performs a search a status icon or ‘busy lamp field’ is displayed indicating the status of the extension so that the operator can see if the person is on the phone or able to take the call. Alternatively, Intuition integrates with Microsoft Office Communications Server which indicates a person’s presence status next to their name in the console database.
This live presence information means operators can choose the best method in which to contact a person and deal with the call to ensure the transfer is successful. If the contact is out of the office the operator can select the mobile icon to transfer to their mobile or transfer the caller to an available person from the same department.
Operators can also check a person's calendar to see when they are free, or choose to send an email or Instant Message from the console to the contact to advise them that a call is waiting or the callers details so that they can return the call.
Embedding these tools into the console removes the need to swap applications and keep the caller on hold, which improves productivity whilst allowing operators to be more responsive to callers and staff.
