Dialink

Employees can send instant messages on your own private chat network.

HUD just got a facelift, errr a face.

In addition, we now support the Outlook 2007 photo feature to show pictures for calls to/from external numbers.

Wherever you HUD, there's your voicemail! The new visual voicemail component enables users to play, delete, and flag their voicemails, in addition to calling the user back, initiating a chat with the user, or adding the user to Outlook. HUD Voicemail also supports Photo Caller-ID, allowing you to see that befitting smirk while they are yelling at you.

Mouse over a contact to show their name, photo, and other contact details.

To transfer calls to any extension, voicemail box, on-hold or parking area, simply drag the call with your mouse from the call status area to the desired location.

HUD provides all employees the ability to view calls that are currently parked, tag parked calls with reminder notes, and drag calls between extensions, on-hold areas, and the parking area.

Managers can see which agents are logged in and out of their queues.

Agents can view their own login/logout status and log themselves in and out of their queues. Managers can also log agents in and out with a click of the mouse.

HUD provides your employees the ability to record their own calls with the press of a button. Call recordings capture agent name, agent extension, date, time, and file size. HUD also comes with an extensive permission system that lets you decide exactly who can record their own calls and who is allowed to record others’ calls. HUD is critical for quality control within your call center!

HUD gives supervisors the ability to actively listen to or passively monitor any inbound or outbound call. HUD also comes with an extensive permission system, so you can grant a specific group the ability to barge/monitor another specific group.

The Queue Summary component shows a list of all queues in your call center. You will have access to real-time data such as number of calls holding, abandon rate, completion rate, number of agents on queue calls, number of agents logged in, and total number of agents belonging to the queue. Managers will also be able to view and poach holding calls.

The Queue Detail component provides you even more data on an individual queue. You will have access to real-time stats such as: abandon volume, abandon rate, complete volume, complete rate, and estimated hold time. A sortable list of all agents in the queue give managers the ability to record, barge, or log agents in/out of the queue directly from this screen. Managers will also be able to view and poach holding calls.

Never abandon another queue call! After the queue has rung all available agents once, a "No one is answering this call" Desktop Alert appears on all participating managers or agent desktops visually alerting them that a caller is holding. This alert will display the holding time of the call that is not being answered.

Be proactive by receiving abandoned call alerts in real-time. When a queue call is abandoned participating mangers or agents will receive a Desktop Alert informing them of such.

Managers now have the ability to send out broadcast messages to their agents. Get them to work harder or congratulate them on a job well done.

Users have the ability to reset queue stats, either from the Queue Summary component or the Queue Detail component.
