New Features and Enhancements

Highlights

  • Speech Recognition has been added to all activities that take input from a caller. This means that an IVR application that asks a caller to provide data or make a selection can gather that information either by DTMF (e.g. "press 1 for...") or by the caller saying "1". This will help our customers build more advanced self-help applications in their IVR to assist their callers.
  • Easier Implementation of custom interactions has been enabled by adding a new data element and a new flow control activity. These elements work together to make it easier to setup the priority and load allowances of custom interactions. 

All Enhancements Completed

  1. Setup - Configuring and calculating matching of Custom Interaction Types to Agent's Load Allowances.
  2. Setup - New flow Activities - Set-Priority and Set-Priority-By-Variable.
