Dynamic Overflow Routing—Estimated Wait Time Breakouts (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

For information about estimated wait time breakouts, see Breakouts.

Dynamic Skill Tagging (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

Using Interaction Architect you can tag incoming interactions with skills. Tagging an interaction with a skill indicates that the agent who handles the interaction must have that skill.

For information about dynamic skill tagging, see Dynamic skill tagging.

Emergency Call Routing (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

Sometimes you might need to change the interaction plan used when a customer dials a particular number in your account. For example, in a disaster situation, you might need to divert calls to a standby interaction plan, or when the office is closed you might want to divert calls to an announcement that provides information about office hours.

...

For more information about the Extended Agent Presence feature, see Extended agent presence (calls).

Flexible Working (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

The Flexible Working feature enables agents to change the telephone number that they receive inbound calls on and that they make outbound calls from.

...

Multiple/Flexible Outbound CLIDs (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

When an agent makes an outbound call, the NewVoiceMedia platform presents a number to the person they are calling. The person receiving the call can use this number to identify who the incoming call is from and optionally use the number to call the agent back another time.

...

For information about outbound CLIDs, see Callback numbers.

Post-Call Survey (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

In NewVoiceMedia you can use a post-call survey at the end of an inbound or outbound call to gather feedback from callers. Depending on your configuration, the call is either transferred to the post-call survey when the agent hangs up, or when the agent dials a short code that routes the call to the number that the post-call survey is configured for.

...

SLA Optimizer—Agreement Based Routing (CX Cloud CXCloud Elevate only)

Traditionally interactions are routed to the longest waiting agent. With skills based routing, NewVoiceMedia routes all types of interactions to the agents who are best equipped to handle them. Agreement based routing enhances skills based routing. With agreement based routing, NewVoiceMedia prioritizes interactions, according to the configured service level agreement (SLA) for a virtual queue. A virtual queue is a group of interactions requiring a specific combination of skills. NewVoiceMedia aims to route all interactions to keep in line with SLAs.
