New Features and Enhancements
The following table describes the new features and enhancements of this release in Acqueon Workspace.
Feature | Description | Beta/GA | Platform |
---|---|---|---|
Integration with Webex Contact Center | Acqueon Workspace now integrates with Webex Contact Center, enhancing agent communications through two integration types:
In this integration, Acqueon Workspace is the main interface, with both its widgets and the Webex CC desktop in a unified layout. This setup allows agents to access both Workspace and Webex CC telephony features from a single, screen.
With this integration, Acqueon Workspace widgets are embedded directly within the Webex CC Agent Desktop, delivering a cohesive and integrated agent experience. | GA | Webex CC |
Skip Trace Widget | The Skip Trace Widget is a powerful tool designed to enhance agent efficiency in locating individuals with outdated contact information, commonly applied in debt collection, fraud prevention, and similar critical areas. This feature brings enhanced capabilities for managing contact attempts, ensuring compliance, and maintaining comprehensive outcome tracking. Key Agent Capabilities
Use Cases The widget’s flexible design makes it adaptable for various purposes across industries, allowing agents to handle a wide range of customer outreach scenarios—from tracing lost contacts to managing complex compliance requirements.
| GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
Unified outcome widget for Five9 | The new Unified Outcome Widget in Five9 allows agents to seamlessly set and synchronize call outcomes for all call types, including Inbound, Manual Outbound, Dialer Outbound, and Skip Trace calls. The enhancement simplifies disposition processes between Five9 and Acqueon Campaigns, making it easier for agents to handle outcomes. This streamlined outcome setting promotes efficient call handling for agents and outcome tracking for all call scenarios, including skip trace, ensuring accurate record-keeping across platforms. | Five9 | |
Embracing Inclusive Language | As a step towards inclusivity, a few of the Acqueon Workspace user interface terminologies and the related documentation have been updated. The term "slave" has been replaced with "secondary," and "whitelist" has been changed to "allowlist." These changes demonstrate Acqueon’ s commitment to creating an inclusive environment for all users. | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
Customizable Layout Header | With the customizable Layout Header feature, administrators can now customize and enhance the visual appeal of the workspace layout header. The Layout Header Settings tab allows them to personalize the header's appearance, ensuring it aligns with organizational branding. Admins can configure the header title, upload primary and secondary logos, and customize colors and fonts. This feature provides agents with a cohesive and tailored experience across the platform. | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
API Migration to AWS API Gateway | With the migration to AWS API Gateway, Workspace APIs now utilize a single, centralized URL as the base for all API calls across multiple customers, enhancing accessibility and security. This centralized approach acts as the primary access point for server interactions, simplifying the integration process for developers and ensuring efficient communication across services. By managing token validation, it guarantees authorized access while supporting Single Sign-On (SSO) and additional security protocols to protect data. This streamlined, secure interface promotes user trust and compliance, simplifies operations, and enables quick adaptation to market changes, effectively supporting business growth and scalability. | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
Multitenancy for App Server | The Multi-Tenancy for App Server feature enables SSO users to access applications within a single EC2 box, allowing multiple tenants and sub-tenants to optimize resource use in Acqueon Workspace. By consolidating resources into one setup, this feature reduces infrastructure needs and drives cost savings. Maintenance is streamlined, with a single patch applied across all tenants to minimize downtime and simplify management, ensuring efficient server use and sustained performance across multiple users. | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
Redis Multitenancy – Migration scripts for Existing customers | In addition to enhancing scalability with Redis multitenancy for new customers, we now have migration scripts to move existing customers. These scripts facilitate a smooth transition to the Redis multi-tenancy model, allowing existing users to optimize resource utilization and streamline maintenance just like new customers. This upgrade ensures that all existing customers benefit from the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of a single Redis instance serving multiple tenants or sub-tenants. | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
.NET Migration from 6.0 to 8.0 | Upgraded from .NET 6.0 to .NET 8.0.8 to ensure continued support, enhanced performance, and improved system stability as .NET 6.0 reaches end-of-support from Microsoft in November 2024. This migration provides a more resilient framework, enhancing security and compatibility across all platforms | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
Preview Widget Enhancements | The Preview widget now includes toaster error messages related to outbound calls, which previously appeared only in the softphone. This enhancement is beneficial for agents using the Preview Campaign widget for calls, ensuring they view important error notifications directly within the widget enhancing visibility and accessibility. | GA | Amazon Connect |
Call Guide Widget for MCD Records | When an agent handling a call selects a Multi-Campaign Disposition (MCD) record, the Call Guide widget now automatically displays relevant data. This enables agents to access essential widget information, improving the customer interaction experience. | GA | Amazon Connect, Cisco, Five9, and Webex CC |
Open Issues
The following issues are open in this release:
Clearing a Multi-Campaign Disposition (MCD) record during an active Skip Trace or Manual Dial call inadvertently clears the data from the gadgets associated with the active call as well.
When an agent initiates a consult or conference call during a Skip Trace or Manual Dial, the disposition gadget displays the Agent ID instead of the mode number on consulted agent screen.
