Ncontactcenter is a web-oriented ACD solution that employs browser technology for the management and display of call center data.
The solution offers defined rules and requirements for incoming and outgoing calls, as well as multi-channel communication. Administration, as well as monitoring and system use on part of supervisors or agents is conducted using a web-based interface and can be accessed via the Internet. The solution includes the following services:
- ACD
- IVR
- Dialer
- Integration into backend systems
- Agent and queue monitoring
- Neorecording Integration (coming soon)
The configuration of Ncontactcenter is carried out by NFON TC.
The Ncontactcenter solution connects to the NFON PBX via a SIP trunk. Consequently, the call goes over from the PBX to the Ncontactcenter solution.
All call forward and call flow logic lies within the Ncontactcenter solution. The call remains in the Ncontactcenter solution until its end. This allows comprehensive reporting and conclusive statistics.
During all this time, the desktop telephone itself serves only for taking and ending the call.
Logging in and off as an agent as well as all further call control takes place in the Ncontactcenter solution.
The solution currently does not include CTI, directory or presence intergration into the NFON PBX.
