Reaching Your Audience

  1. Number of Attempts: Control how many times the system tries to connect with a lead or customer by setting the "Re-tries" option in your campaign configuration. This helps you find the right balance between reaching contacts and avoiding excessive calls.
    1. Re-Tries
      1. The re-tries setting in the campaign configuration lets you manage how many times a call is attempted. By setting the number of re-tries, you can customize your outreach strategy to improve contact rates and connect with leads or customers more effectively.
        Note: The system will initiate an outbound attempt if previous attempts were unsuccessful.
        To configure re-tries settings in a campaign, refer to the Outbound campaign article.
    2. Advanced Re-tries
      1. The advanced retries feature allows administrators to set up multiple retry attempts based on call statuses and dispositions.
      2. For an in-depth understanding, refer to either the Advanced Re-Tries section article (within the Outbound Campaign section) or the dedicated Advanced Re-Tries article.

      3. Campaign: Activates the maximum dialing limit per day for a number at the campaign level.
        1. With this setting, each campaign can have a specific dialing limit for a number.
        2. For outbound campaigns, utilize the "Daily Outbound Limit per Number" field on the campaign configuration page to set the limit for that campaign (Refer here).
        3. For inbound campaigns, the "Daily Outbound Limit per Number" field appears only when manual dialing is enabled for that campaign (Refer here).
        4. The system resets this data each day at 12 am midnight for the next day's dialing.

      1. Allows the admin to set the maximum number of outbound dialing attempts for a number at the account level.

Re-Dial

  • Redial is a feature available to agents through the toolbar, allowing them to reconnect with customers if a call is prematurely disconnected.
  • This option appears in the disposition window during call disposition. To know how this works on the agent toolbar, refer here.
    • On the disposition window, If an agent selects any disposition, it updates the Call Details Report accordingly.
    • If no disposition is selected, the system automatically assigns the standard 'Redial' disposition value
  • As an administrator, consider the following regarding the Redial feature:
    • Redial functionality operates exclusively in Blended or Manual modes for agents.
    • If your campaign configuration sets the Disposition Type to None, Redial functionality will not be applicable.
    • The number of redial attempts is controlled by campaign configuration settings, including the number of tries, advanced retries, and maximum attempts per customer.

Dial Interval

The Dial Interval setting in the campaign configuration determines the time gap between dialing each subsequent record from the campaign data.

Call recording

The call recording feature provides customizable options for Preview, Progressive, and Manual campaigns. Admins can tailor recording preferences based on campaign types, ensuring optimal call recording configurations.

  • Recording Options
    • Admins can configure recording preferences for outbound calls with the following options:
      • Record the Call in Full
      • Record Only the Conversation
      • Do Not Record Outbound Calls

For an in-depth understanding, refer to the Call Recording section of the Outbound campaign article.

DNC Regulations

Do Not Call (DNC) regulation is a feature designed to ensure that businesses do not contact customers during non-compliant hours. It guarantees dialing at specific times, considering their respective time zones.

The DNC regulation applies to both:

  • Manual calls in inbound campaigns and
  • All types of calls in outbound campaigns (Predictive, Progressive, Preview, IVR).

Configuration:

  • The admin can enable the DNC regulation by selecting the "Apply DNC Regulation" option on the campaign configuration page. This setting can be found under General Information -> Campaign Settings and is available for both inbound and outbound campaigns.

This setup ensures compliance with DNC regulations and enhances the customer experience by respecting their preferred contact times.

Report

Refer to the Call Details report for all the recording details of a call.

Continuous Barge-in

Admins and Sub-admins can use the Agent List widget (In Dashboards ) to initiate barge-in mode. When an admin joins a call in barge-in mode, a new window opens and remains open until the admin manually closes it. This allows the admin to continuously monitor the same agent for subsequent calls. Here's how continuous barge-in works:

  • You as an admin or Sub-admin can click on barge-in and join the call. The call-drop option is displayed to the admin.
  • After the agent's call ends, the window remains open.
  • When the agent receives the next call, the admin is dialed back via WebRTC. Since it is set to auto-answer, the admin is connected to the audio automatically.
  • This process continues until the admin manually closes the barge-in window for that agent.

The Continuous Barge-in option must be enabled for the user (sub-admin) for the feature to work.
