MaxContact Softphone – Connectivity & Reconnection Improvements
We’re working on enhancements for the Softphone, it will have better reconnection logic, failover mechanisms, and user notifications. These upgrades ensure reliable communication even during network interruptions.
Blind Call Transfers
We’re introducing blind transfers, allowing agents to transfer calls during the “Ringing” phase. This means calls can be passed on instantly while the recipient’s phone is still ringing, without waiting for them to answer. This update helps reduce delays and improves efficiency in managing queued calls.
MaxContact Webchat API: Chatbot Transcript Transfer
Use our Webchat API to transfer chatbot transcripts and pre-chat question responses into Contact Hub. When a chatbot encounters a query beyond its capabilities, the conversation seamlessly transitions to an agent – complete with the full transcript. This ensures agents have the necessary context to review prior interactions, enabling smoother and more personalised customer engagements.
Incoming Call Notifications
We know your team are busy and contact centres are noisy. Stay on top of every call with real-time pop-up notifications, even when multitasking in other applications. This ensures agents never miss an inbound call.
Call Whisper Alerts for Dynamic Nailup
We’re enhancing call handling by replacing the standard beep during call dialogues with configurable Whispers (Zip Tones). These audio cues provide immediate context about the call type or queue, ensuring agents know what type of call they’re handling before they answer.
Unlike the beep, which can be missed or misheard, Whispers are customisable and clearly communicate key details like “Transfer” or “Customer Service.” This improvement makes inbound call handling faster, clearer, and more intuitive for your team.
Chatbot Discovery
We’re conducting initial research to explore opportunities for smarter chatbot workflows as part of our product discovery process. This phase focuses on understanding how admins could create predefined workflows to address FAQs or provide static information, aiming to facilitate seamless self-service customer interactions and improve the overall customer experience.
Contact Hub Improvements
Save Draft Interactions
Agents can save draft interactions in Contact Hub, allowing them to switch between tasks without losing unsent messages. This makes juggling multiple conversations easier and more efficient.
General UX Improvements
We’re making subtle but impactful changes to Contact Hub’s design and functionality based on your feedback. These updates enhance usability, helping agents work more effectively.
