Tässä artikkelissa

Onko sinulla palautetta?

Webex Customer Experience Basic is a collection of core call center features such as voice queues, call queue analytics, reports, and so on. Agents and supervisors can utilize the simple voice-centric call center functionalities along with advanced calling features to efficiently handle the customer calls.

Overview

Webex Customer Experience Basic is an offering available as part of the Webex Suite or Webex Calling Professional license at no additional cost. It includes a simple and powerful set of features which are bundled together to deliver the call center functionalities. The features such as Voice Queues, skill-based routing, call queue monitoring and analytics, multi call window, and more, help users to engage with customers efficiently. Also, with our Webex Calling for Microsoft Teams integration, the Microsoft Teams users can access the features directly from Teams.

As Customer Experience Basic is designed as a voice-only offering, it's best suited for customers who need simple voice-centric call center capabilities and don't need the advanced features of comprehensive contact center service.

We recommend Webex Contact Center for customers who require sophisticated customer engagement capabilities, omni-channel routing, or large-scale, high call volume deployments.

Features and benefits

Customer Experience Basic includes the following features:

Voice Queues—Helps administrators to configure various features such as skills-based routing, enhanced queue polices, customer callback, and so on.
Call queue analytics—Helps administrators to view the important data such as top call queues, top agents, live call queues status, and so on.
Call queue reports— Helps administrators to view the details such as call queue status report and agent status report.
Agent experience in Webex App—Helps users to check and change their call queue status and join/unjoin queue in the Webex App.
Multi call window— Helps users to get a quick view of the call status and easily access some common calling features.
Webex Calling integration within Microsoft Teams—Helps users to access the features directly from Microsoft Teams.

Voice Queues

Voice Queues, which is formerly known as Group Call Management (GCM), is an advanced call queue capability that makes it easy and affordable to support high call volume and team call handling services, as a core part of Webex Calling.

Voice Queues adds key features that provide supervisor capabilities, enhances queue policies to determine call routing based on business hours, provides skill-based routing, provides call back capabilities for customers and reports and analytics for administrators. Voice Queues is an out-of-box feature set within Webex Calling, and is recommended for call queues up to 50 agents.

Voice Queues refers to a collection of features designed to work together in support of managing high call volume sales and support teams, for calls directed to a call queue. The features include:

For Callers
- Welcome greeting
- Comfort greeting (we’ll be with you shortly)
- Request callback (caller can designate a callback number, rather than wait in queue)
- Enhanced queue routing policies (for night service, holidays, and forced forwarding)
- Additional IVR functions-call whisper message and comfort bypass message
For Agents
- One-step login / logout of queue
- Personal readiness status management
- Multi-queue operations
- Intuitive UX options for desk phone and Webex App
For Supervisors and Administrators
- Monitor / coach / barge / takeover active calls
- Agent status management
- Call queue reporting and analytics dashboard
- Assign call queue staff per queue
- Assign skills-based routing ratings of staff, per queue

Call Queue launch kit

Before configuring the call queue, if you want to understand the ways to equip call queues and empower your call queue agents, you can download the Call Queue launch kit.

Create and manage call queue

Call queues routes callers to agents who can help with a particular issue or question. Calls are distributed one at a time to the agents in the queue. Call queues temporarily hold calls when all agents assigned to receive calls from the queue are unavailable. When agents become available, the queued calls are routed according to the call routing settings you’ve determined for the call queue.

When a call arrives to a call queue and is sent to an agent, the agent call forwarding feature doesn't work.

Create a call queue

You can create multiple call queues for your organization. Use these call queues when you can't answer customers' calls to provide an automated answer, comfort messages or hold music until someone answers.

Go to Services > Calling > Features.

Go to the Call Queue card and click Add new to create a new call queue.

On the Basics page, enter the following information, and then click Next.

Location—Select a location from the drop-down menu.

A location is a container with a location-specific calling configuration. See Configure Cisco Webex Calling for Your Organization, for more information.
Call Queue Name—Enter a name for the call queue.
Phone Number and Extension—Assign a primary phone number and/or an extension to the call queue.

If you leave the extension field blank, the system automatically assigns the last four digits of the phone number as an extension for this call queue. To modify it, see Edit call queue phone numbers section.
Allow agents to use call queue number as caller ID—Enable the toggle to allow the agents to use the call queue number as the caller ID.
There’s a restriction that both the call queue’s location and the agent’s location must have the same PSTN provider, country, and zone (this applies only to locations in India). If it’s different, then the call queue caller ID doesn't display to the agent. This restriction helps to prevent call failure, potential billing issues, and ensures adherence to country-specific telecom regulations.

Examples of invalid cross-location number usage:

Agent in U.S. location using UK location call queue number.

Agent in San Jose, California location with PSTN provider 1 using Richardson, Texas call queue number with PSTN provider 2.
Number of Calls in Queue—Assign the maximum number of calls for this call queue. Once this number is reached, the overflow settings are triggered.

You can set the number of calls in a queue from 0–250.

Don’t set the Number of Calls in Queue to 0. If the Number of Calls in Queue is set to 0, then incoming calls aren’t allowed.
Caller ID—Assign the caller ID for the queue.

This field is mandatory to navigate to the next screen.
- External caller ID phone number—This number is used when the call back is initiated to the caller. Also, If an agent in a queue makes an external call and the queue has a phone number, that number is used as the caller ID; otherwise, this configured external caller ID number is used. For internal calls made by an agent, if the queue has an extension, that extension is used as the caller ID; otherwise, the queue’s phone number is used.
  Choose any one of the following external caller ID phone numbers:
  - Direct Line—The primary phone number and extension of this call queue.
    If a number isn't assigned to the call queue, then this option won’t appear.
  - Location Number—The main number of the location that this call queue is assigned to.
    
    If the location has no main number, then this option won’t appear.
  - Other number from organization—You can choose other number (both assigned or unassigned) from the drop-down menu.
    If you select an unassigned number, the callback to that number isn’t answered.
    
    You can add a number from another location. However, there’s a restriction that both the call queue’s location and the other number's location must have the same PSTN provider, country, and zone (this applies only to locations in India). This restriction helps to prevent call failure, potential billing issues, and ensures adherence to country-specific telecom regulations.
- First name and Last name—Enter the caller ID first name and last name. The caller ID name entered here, along with the calling party caller ID name and number, shows when the queue agents are receiving an incoming call from the queue.
Language—Select the call queue language from the drop-down menu.

On the Call Routing page, choose one of the following options, and click Next.

Priority Based
- Circular—Cycles through all agents after the last agent that took a call. It sends calls to the next available call queue agent.
- Top Down—Sends calls through the queue of agents in order, starting from the top each time.
- Longest Idle—Sends calls to the agent that has been idle the longest. If they don't answer, proceeds to the next agent who has been idle second longest, and so on, until the call is answered.
- Weighted—Sends calls to agents based on the percentages you assign to each agent in the call queue profile (up to 100%).
- Simultaneous—Sends calls to all agents in a call queue at once.
  
  If you’ve set up a simultaneous call routing pattern and bounced call settings, you can enhance the call distribution of unanswered calls. For more information, see Enhance call queue simultaneous ring call distribution for bounced calls.
Skill Based

When you select skill based call routing, by default routing happens only based on the skill level. If there’s more than one agent with the same skill level, follow the selected routing pattern (Circular/Top Down/Longest) to resolve the contention to choose the next agent for call routing.
- Circular—Cycles through all agents after the last agent that took a call. It sends calls to the next available call queue agent.
- Top Down—Sends calls through the queue of agents in order, starting from the top each time.
- Longest Idle—Sends calls to the agent that has been idle the longest. If they don't answer, proceeds to the next agent who has been idle second longest, and so on, until the call is answered.

The following table shows the maximum number of agents that you can allocate for each call routing type.

Call routing type	Maximum number of agents allowed
Priority based
Circular	1,000
Top Down	1,000
Longest Idle	1,000
Weighted	100
Simultaneous	50
Skill based
Circular	1,000
Top Down	1,000
Longest Idle	1,000

By default, the calls aren’t routed to agents when they are in the Wrapping Up state.

On the Overflow Settings page, configure overflow settings and notification tones for agents, and click Next.

Overflow Settings—Choose one of the following options to handle the overflow calls:
- Perform busy treatment—The caller hears a fast-busy tone.
- Play ringing until caller hangs up—The caller hears ringing until they disconnect.
- Transfer to phone number—Enter the number where you want to transfer overflow calls.
  You can also enable the following settings:
- Enable overflow after calls wait x seconds—With this option you can enter a wait time (in seconds) for callers. Once this wait time is reached by the caller, the overflow treatment is triggered.
- Play announcement before overflow processing—If this option is disabled, callers hear hold music until a user answers the call.
Notification tone for agents—Configure whether to play a notification tone to agents when a supervisor uses functions such as monitoring, barge-in, and coaching. This setting can be configured at organization level and queue level.
- Use organization’s default settings—Choose this option if you want to apply the organization settings for this queue. By default, this option is selected.
  To configure the settings at the organization level, see Configure agent notification tone for supervisor functions.
- Define custom notification settings—To customize the settings for this queue, choose this option and then select the following:
  - Play notification tone for Monitoring
  - Play notification tone for Supervisor Barge in
  - Play notification tone for Coaching
  Selecting these options plays a notification tone for the agent when a supervisor monitors, coaches, or barges in on the call.

On the Announcements page, determine the messages and music that callers hear while waiting in the queue and click Next. You can enable any of the following options:

Welcome Message—Play a message when callers first reach the queue. For example, “Thank you for calling. An agent will be with you shortly.” It can be set as mandatory. If the mandatory option isn’t selected and a caller reaches the call queue while there’s an available agent, the caller won’t hear this announcement and is transferred to an agent.
Estimated wait message for Queued Calls—Notify the caller with either their estimated wait time or position in the queue. If this option is enabled, it plays after the welcome message and before the comfort message.
Comfort Message—Play a message after the welcome message and before hold music. This is typically a custom announcement that plays information, such as current promotions or information about products and services.
Comfort Message Bypass—Play a shorter comfort message instead of the standard Comfort Message or Music On Hold announcement for all calls that should be answered quickly. This feature prevents a caller from hearing a short portion of the standard comfort message that abruptly ends when they are connected to an agent.
Hold Music—Play music after the comfort message in a repetitive loop.
Call Whisper Message—Play a message to the agent immediately before the incoming call is connected. The message typically announces the identity of the call queue from which the call is coming.

On the Select Agents page, click Add User or Workspace or Virtual Line drop-down, then search or select the users, workspaces, or virtual lines to add to the call queue.

You can assign a skill level (1 being the highest skill level and 20 being the lowest skill level) to each user or workspaces added to the call queue.

You can assign a skill level only when you select a skill based routing type else you won’t have the option to set the skill level.
By default, agents with skill level 1 (Highest skill level) are added.

You can select the Allow agents on active calls to take additional calls check box if you want to allow agents on active calls to take additional calls.

You can select the Allow agents to join or unjoin the queue check box if you want to allow agents to join or unjoin the queue.

Depending on the call routing option you chose previously, you may need to add extra information such as adding percentage weighting to users or workspaces, or for circular or top-down call routing, drag and drop users and workspaces in the order of their queue position.

On the Review page, review your call queue settings to make sure you've entered the correct details.

Click Create and Done to confirm your call queue settings.

On creating a queue, you can enable or disable the queue using the toggle beside Enable Call Queue in the side panel.

Toggling off the Enable Queue in the side panel disables all new calls to the queue and presents a busy status to the caller. Also, it resets the call routing type allocation for the next agent, for example, circular routing will default to the first agent in the list.

Watch this video demonstration on how to create a new call queue in the Control Hub.

Create call queues in bulk

You can add and manage call queues in bulk using a call queue CSV. This article covers the specific fields and values needed for the CSV upload of Webex Calling call queues.

Before you begin

Before uploading your call queue CSV, make sure to read Bulk provisioning Webex Calling elements using CSV to understand the CSV conventions.
You can either export your current call queues, which allows you to add, delete, or modify your existing data set, or you can export a sample set of call queues. Once modified, the file can be uploaded through the bulk features.

Exporting CSV file into ZIP file format: When exporting data to a CSV file, the number of records may exceed 1000. In such cases, the ZIP file is downloaded, where the ZIP file contains the full set of record(s) in a single CSV file. A separate folder containing all the data is broken down into multiple CSV files with less than 1000 records. These files are generated for the administrators to quickly import any updates and upload.
It is important to know the mandatory and optional columns, and information that you’ll need to provide when filling out the CVS template. The specific fields for the call queue CSV are found in the table in the Prepare your CSV section.
The maximum amount of rows is 1,000 (not including the header).
Agents can be users or workspaces. For users, enter the user’s email address. For workspaces, enter the workspace name.
Each row can hold a maximum of 50 agents. See Add or edit more than 50 agents at a time for more information.

Manage calls in a call queue

Make sure customers are reaching the right agents at the right time when they call into a call queue. You can configure and edit incoming call settings like call forwarding, routing pattern, overflow settings, bounced call settings, and call back settings for a call queue in Control Hub.

Edit call queue settings

You can change the language, number of calls for the queue, and the caller ID for your call queue.

1	Sign in to Control Hub.
2	Go to Services > Calling > Features.
3	Go to the Call Queue card and click Manage.
4	Select a call queue to edit from the list.
5	In the side panel, click Settings.
6	Edit any of the following fields: Number of Calls in Queue—This is the maximum number of calls for this call queue. Once this number is reached, the overflow settings are triggered. You can set the number of calls in a queue from 0–250. Don’t set the Number of Calls in Queue to 0. If it’s set to 0, then incoming calls aren’t allowed. Language—This language applies to the audio announcements for this call queue. Time Zone—This time zone applies to the schedules applied to this call queue. Caller ID—Assign the caller ID for the queue. External caller ID phone number—This number is used when the call back is initiated to the caller. Also, If an agent in a queue makes an external call and the queue has a phone number, that number is used as the caller ID; otherwise, this configured external caller ID number is used. For internal calls made by an agent, if the queue has an extension, that extension is used as the caller ID; otherwise, the queue’s phone number is used. Choose any one of the following external caller ID phone numbers: Direct Line—The primary phone number and extension of this call queue. If a number isn't assigned to the call queue, then this option won’t appear. Location Number—The main number of the location that this call queue is assigned to. If the location has no main number, then this option won’t appear. Other number from organization—You can choose other number (both assigned or unassigned) from the drop-down menu. If you select an unassigned number, the callback to that number isn’t answered. You can add a number from another location. However, there’s a restriction that both the call queue’s location and the other number's location must have the same PSTN provider, country, and zone (this applies only to locations in India). This restriction helps to prevent call failure, potential billing issues, and ensures adherence to country-specific telecom regulations. First name and Last name—Enter the caller ID first name and last name. The caller ID name entered here, along with the calling party caller ID name and number, shows when the queue agents are receiving an incoming call from the queue. Notification tone for agents—Configure whether to play a notification tone to agents when a supervisor uses functions such as monitoring, barge-in, and coaching. This setting can be configured at organization level and queue level. Use organization’s default settings—Choose this option if you want to apply the organization settings for this queue. By default, this option is selected. To configure the settings at the organization level, see Configure agent notification tone for supervisor functions. Define custom notification settings—To customize the settings for this queue, choose this option and then select the following: Play notification tone for Monitoring Play notification tone for Supervisor Barge in Play notification tone for Coaching Selecting these options plays a notification tone for the agent when a supervisor monitors, coaches, or barges in on the call. Distinctive Ringing—This is a special ring pattern to distinguish incoming calls from this call queue.

Edit call queue phone numbers

You can change your call queue phone number and add up to 10 alternate numbers.

1	Sign in to Control Hub.
2	Go to Services > Calling > Features.
3	Go to the Call Queue card and click Manage.
4	Select a call queue to edit from the list.
5	In the side panel, click Phone Number.

There’s a restriction that both the call queue’s location and the agent’s location must have the same PSTN provider, country, and zone (this applies only to locations in India). If it’s different, then the call queue caller ID doesn't display to the agent. This restriction helps to prevent call failure, potential billing issues, and ensures adherence to country-specific telecom regulations. Examples of invalid cross-location number usage: Agent in U.S. location using UK location call queue number. Agent in San Jose, California location with PSTN provider 1 using Richardson, Texas call queue number with PSTN provider 2.
8	Add Alternate Numbers using the search function.

13	For Calls From, select Any Number or Selected Numbers with at least one option from the following: Any Number—Forwards all calls in the specified rule. Any Private Numbers—Forwards calls from private numbers. Any Unavailable Numbers—Forwards calls from unavailable numbers. Add Specific Numbers—Forwards calls from up to 12 numbers that you define.
14	For Calls To, select a number or alternative number from the drop-down menu, so that calls are forwarded when a call is received to this number in your organization that you define.
15	Click Save.

The rules created for the selectively forward calls are processed based on the following criteria:

The rules are sorted in the table by rule name character. Example: 00_rule, 01_rule, and so on.
The "Not to Forward" rule always takes precedence over the "Forward" rule.
The rules are processed based on the order they are listed in the table.
You can create multiple rules. However, if a rule is satisfied, the system no longer checks the next rule. If you want the specific rule to check first, we suggest that you update the rule name with numbers. For example: If you want the holiday rule to check before the business closed hours rule, then name the rule as 01-Holiday and 02-Closed.

To know more about the basic functionality and examples of the selectively forward call, see Configure Call Forwarding Selective for Webex Calling.

What to do next

Once a rule is created, you can enable or disable a rule using the toggle beside the rule in the table. You can also change or delete a rule at any time by clicking Edit or .

Top Down—Sends calls through the queue of agents in order, starting from the top each time. Longest Idle—Sends calls to the agent that has been idle the longest. If they don't answer, proceeds to the next agent who has been idle second longest, and so on, until the call is answered. Weighted—Sends calls to agents based on the percentages you assign to each agent in the call queue profile (up to 100%). Simultaneous—Sends calls to all agents in a call queue at once. Skill Based When you select skill based call routing, by default agents with skill level 1 (Highest skill level) are added and routing happens only based on the skill level (1 being the highest skill level and 20 being the lowest skill level). If there’s a more than one agent with the same skill level, then the selected routing pattern(Circular/Top Down/Longest) is followed to resolve the contention to choose the next agent for call routing. Circular—Cycles through all agents after the last agent that took a call. It sends calls to the next available call queue agent. Top Down—Sends calls through the queue of agents in order, starting from the top each time. Longest Idle—Sends calls to the agent that has been idle the longest.

If the caller’s queue position is above the entered value and you enable the Play high volume message option, then the high-volume message plays. Announce wait time—Plays a message notifying the customer about the estimated wait time. Enter the time, in minutes, to play a message for callers whose wait time is less than the entered value. This option plays a message “Your call should be answered in approximately <X> minutes; please hold" based on the wait time. To determine the wait time, you can use the following algorithm to check against the configured value: Estimated wait time = ([position in queue * average call handling time] / [number of agents available or wrap-up]) The system uses the default handling time when the average call handling time isn’t available. If the estimated wait time value is higher than the Announce wait time value and you select the Play high volume message, then the system plays the high volume message.
5	Select Play high volume message to play an announcement when all volumes are higher than the maximum queue position defined. Enabling this option plays the call back prompt after this announcement.

Manage call queue agents

For every Webex call initiated, you’ll be provided with a business Calling Line Identification (CLID). This business CLID can either be a call queue phone number or the agent's configured phone number. The agent can decide to provide this information for outgoing calls either through a persistent configuration or a temporary configuration.

Configure agent settings for user

Before you begin

The Control Hub administrator enables the phone number to use as the outgoing phone number for the agents in the call queue/hunt group.
On enabling the phone number, the administrator can set the agents outgoing phone number with the specific queue/hunt group CLID as per Persistent Configuration.
The agents can also set a Temporary CLID Configuration by using the FAC code #80 to use the call queue/hunt group phone number as the CLID displayed for the outgoing call or #81 for outgoing default caller ID as the phone number displayed as CLID.

1	Sign in to Control Hub.
2	Go to Management > Users.
3	Select a user that you want to configure the agent setting for.
4	Click Calling and go to the Agent Settings section.
5	Click the Agent Caller ID. You can set the agent caller ID to either the agent's own caller ID or a specific call queue or hunt group.
6	Configure the agent call queue or hunt group ID from the following options: Configured Caller ID—The caller ID which is already configured to the agent. Call queue or hunt group caller ID—Search by number or queue name and select the call queue or hunt group Caller ID from the drop-down. When the agent you’ve selected isn’t part of the call queue or hunt group, by default, this option is disabled. There’s a restriction that both the call queue's or hunt group's location and the agent’s location must have the same PSTN provider, country, and zone (this applies only to locations in India). If it’s different, then the call queue or hunt group caller ID doesn't display to the agent. This restriction helps to prevent call failure, potential billing issues, and ensures adherence to country-specific telecom regulations. Examples of invalid cross-location number usage: Agent in U.S. location using UK location call queue or hunt group number. Agent in San Jose, California location with PSTN provider 1 using Richardson, Texas call queue or hunt group number with PSTN provider 2.

Add or edit agents

Users who receive calls from the queue are known as agents. You can add or delete users, workspaces, and virtual lines from a call queue. Users, workspaces, and virtual lines can be assigned to multiple call queues.

If you’re a location administrator, you may view all the agents assigned to a call queue including the agents outside your assigned location. You can delete any assigned agents and can add any users to the queue, including the users from other locations. However, you can allow agents only in your assigned locations to join or unjoin the queue. For more details, see Delegate location administration.

Manage call queue supervisors

Agents in a call queue can be associated with a supervisor who can silently monitor, coach, barge in or to take over calls that their assigned agents are currently handling.

Call queue supervisor functions for Webex Calling

Silent monitoring—Monitor an agent’s call without the caller knowing. Use this feature to make sure training is working or identify where agents need to improve.

To silently monitor a call, enter #82 plus the agent’s extension or phone number.

Coaching—Patch into an agent’s call and communicate with the agent. The agent is the only one who can hear you. Use this feature for training new employees.

To coach a call, enter #85 plus the agent’s extension or phone number.

Barge-in—Drop in on an agent’s call. Both the agent and the caller can hear you. This feature is useful when you need to participate in the call and help resolve issues.

To barge-in on a call, enter *33 plus the agent’s extension or phone number.

Take Over—Pull a call from an agent. Use this feature when you need to completely take over the call for an agent.

To take over a call, enter #86 plus the agent’s extension or phone number.

While invoking Supervisor functions, a warning tone is played to an agent while he monitors, coaches or barges in and an announcement is played for the takeover function.
