Avaya strenghts and weaknesses in contact centers with 100% recording

Hello again people

We have an interesting request from a financial company that needs an outbound contact center.

They want to record 100% of calls and as you may know VMpro will do that at best cost/benefit relationship

Comparing the multiples of CCC vs VMpro vs Softphone we got that VMpro is the most restrictive, so we are telling the client that the whole contact center has to be “sectioned” in parts of 40.

If they want more than 40 agents, they must have another IP Office, and so on.

They are some especial sub requests anyway.

One of them is the automatic dialing:
Who is making trustable automatic dialing software for the IP Office?

Anyway I found in CCC installation manual page 63 of 69

Proactive List Manager: The Proactive List Manager module facilitates the importing and assignment of
outbound calling lists to Proactive Campaigns. It provides the administrator with the ability to manage
outbound Proactive Campaign Lists. It furnishes the tools to create draft calling lists, attach them to
campaigns and run the campaigns.

Would that be enough?

Another one is the predefined questions the agent must ask to the customer, can they be dynamically driven (namely from a SQL server database) so that the agent can get the campaigns predefined questions and replies?

To the future:
This questions is posted in another threads, and still without explanation.
Would the TAPI provided with IPO (free or Pro) enough to develop an application by themselves in the case that the IPO application does not fit the needs?

Thanks for your help.

Whatever you end up doing, don't use softphone for a call centre :)

I totaly agree with that !!!
You could also use recorders on the trunks so you are not limited on the 40 ports of vmpro

I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
My wish has come true. I no longer know how to use my telephone.
 
line side recording like what them says :)

there are companies now offering SIP Trunk recording now too...
 
>there are companies now offering SIP Trunk recording now too

technically that ain't too hard - wireshark can do it... The hard bit is getting to the right part of the network

Really? i remember Bas saying you could use Cain to record voip calls.

Have you other guys in the UK got a lot of SIP trunks out there? we havent done a single install yet.

See what my brain does when it's not thinking about phones.

30+% of our lines are SIP tunks now.

helps we own 50% of a Tier 1 provider tho ;-) (shameless sales pitch)
 
Sip trunks are nice but i would personaly always would like to see a backup trunk
If you go for sip then use a good provider with good SLA

i'm thinking of getting some in here to play with, but we have a relationship with a provider, so i would only be able to get their trunks, and they aren't on the supported list.

this thread = officially derailed.

we always sell our trunks with a minimum recommendation of isdn2e backup. the sip trunks automatically fail over and redial the pstn in the event the customers broadband fails.
 
So demand the right settings or tell them that you will use a different provider !
We live in a free world !

I find it stupid that a provider is telling you that you can not use any other provider
Why are they doing that ?
To stay ontopic, can they also record those calls or are you allowed to use a different brand for it :)

sorry if seems like im selling - im not honest.....
 
thats cool sean, i get you, unfortunately for reasons below i probably won't be able to take you up on it.

tlpeter, it's not the providor, it's my end, they like keeping things with this providor.

Agree with others. Line side recording

I am currently installing a 150 line call recording system on a Version 5.0 IP500.

You mention your client is a financial organisation

Are they FSA regulated.

VMPro creates WAV files which are not FSA compliant
