What is Voxtron Communication Center?
• Voxtron Communication Center– is customer interaction software that runs on top of any
(existing) communication environment– sends contacts (calls, emails, faxes, web chats) to appropriate
persons within the organization– distinguishes between direct (personal) communication and
routed (to a pool of employees) communication– assignment strategy is based on Skill-Based Routing (SBR)– is based on the Universal Queue (UQ) principle– provides Business Intelligence (BI) information– CTI function improves employee efficiency– offers powerful Software Development Kits (SDK) for integration
within the existing IT infrastructure
September 2010
7Voxtron Communication Center
Direct versus routed communication
• Voxtron Communication Center distinguishes between direct and routed communication
• Direct (personal/private) communication:– Refers to contacts (calls, emails, faxes) that the initiator sends to
a specific person within the organization by• dialing a DDI (direct dial-in) for making a call or sending a fax • sending a message to a personal email account
• Routed communication:– Refers to contacts (calls, emails, faxes, web chat) that the
initiator sends to an organization, not knowing (and caring) who treats the request by• dialing a general number for making a call or sending a fax• sending a message to a general email account• entering a web chat session via the corporate web site

Contact Center (CC) module
• Voxtron Communication Center’s CC module is based on Skill Based Routing (SBR)
• In a SBR solution, the Administrator assigns skills (e.g. product knowledge, language,…) to each agent. He indicates to which extent this user possesses these skills (%)
• Upon arrival, each new contact gets skills assigned. Potential ways for acquiring contact skills:– Info from the PSTN network:• Dialed number (can be linked to a specific service)• Database retrieval of info based on Calling Number
Identification (CNID, also known as CLIP)– Data gathering via the Self Service application (Interactive Voice
Response – IVR)• SBR searches for the best suitable user to serve a certain contact
with its attached skills
September 2010
38Voxtron Communication Center
Universal Queue
• Voxtron Communication Center performs SBR based on the Universal Queue (UQ) principle
• This means that all contacts (incoming calls, faxes, emails, web chat sessions) are sent to this UQ
• When an agent becomes available, the system calculates the score matrix as shown in following slide
• The contact with the highest score is transferred to the available agent
• The complex algorithm takes into account skills but also:– Time: a contact gets more important the longer it is in the UQ– Agent: contacts can be assigned to an agent when• this agent had no contacts for a long time• this agent has the smallest load• this agent handled a previous contact of the same customer

IVR module
• Voxtron Communication Center contains a powerful, multilingual IVR (Interactive Voice Response)
• IVR is typically used to identify and segment callers (i.e. assign skills)
• By extension it is also used– to resolve caller’s queries without transferring to an agent– to register call back requests from people who don’t want to
continue to wait for a free agent– to link to customer data– to send and receive faxes– to store and retrieve voice messages (voice mail)– for conferencing
• Supports telephone touchtone keypad input and speech recognition• Responds with pre-recorded or dynamically generated (TTS) audio
September 2010
41Voxtron Communication Center
IVR module
• Intelligent Graphical User Interface (GUI)
• Limited set of powerful building blocks
• No programming skills required
September 2010
42Voxtron Communication Center
Faxes
• With Voxtron Communication Center one can– Receive direct (personal) and routed faxes– Send private faxes and ‘contact center’ faxes– Add one of the many (customizable) cover sheets– Look for archived faxes in the Fax Center
• Delivery of faxes to the user can happen in two ways:– Within the client interface (immediate view)– As an attachment to an email message
• A user can send faxes from any Windows application that supports the “Print” function
• Voxtron Communication Center sends status delivery reports to the user
September 2010
43Voxtron Communication Center
Fax cover sheet
• System administrator can define one or more fax cover sheets per CC instance, using an editing toolbox
• Cover sheet consists of following parts:– Images (e.g. company logo)– Text fields– Parameter fields• Automatic parameters (e.g. date, time, number of pages, ...)• Custome parameters– E.g. short description, sender name– The fax printer wizard will ask a value for each of these
custome parameters

send/receive contact center emails– Auto detect reply email (wrap-up starts)– Personal email address masking– Support for PERL libs allowing to trigger al kind of events upon
arrival of a new mail (e.g. auto-reply message)

Reporting
• Part of the Web Center• Standard reports are defined for a particular CC instance• Consolidated reports available via “Custom Reports”• Based on the pre-processed data in the Warehouse; therefore
– having no impact on the modules that are using the active data in the datastore
– less IO, resources and thus time needed to generate
September 2010
60Voxtron Communication Center
Reporting
• Accessible by team leaders, administrators and system administrators– Skill reports– Agent reports– Contact code reports– General reports– Login reports– Custom reports
• Time interval for each of these reports can be changed• All reports can be exported to .csv or .html file• Scheduled reporting:
– Send to an email address– Save to a folder

REDUNDANCY
September 2010
78Voxtron Communication Center
Redundancy
• Redundancy is not an exact science!• Redundancy is often guided by the customer (in line with his
existing IT infrastucture and knowledge)• When talking about redundancy, we talk about
– High-Availability (HA) Clusters– Blade systems– Virtualisation– Disk arrays– NAT– DNS– ...
• A redundancy solution can be based on one or more of these techniques; and therefore a big variety is possible
September 2010
79Voxtron Communication Center
Redundancy – HA Cluster
• A cluster is a group of linked computers• Each computer is called a node• Nodes are connected via a ‘private’ LAN• In a HA cluster, only one node is active at the time• On the non-active node, the Voxtron Communication Center
instances get the same ID (identifier) as the instances on the active node

September 2010
113Voxtron Communication Center
System requirements – SQL Server
• Voxtron Communication Center supports Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
• SQL Server Enterprise is needed in case of a cluster• Extra conditions:
– SQL Server must have the same language as the OS (English / English or German / German)
– SQL Server must support same processor type as the OS (32-bit / 32-bit or 64-bit / 64-bit)
September 2010
VCC Express VCC Enterprise
SQL Express ?
SQL Standard
SQL Enterprise
114Voxtron Communication Center
System Requirements – SQL server
• SQL Express is limited in data storage and memory• Each module makes connection with the datastore and therefore
consumes an amount of memory• Microsoft does not publish figures about the memory consumption
(it depends on the connection and traffic)• As a result, Voxtron even cannot guarantee that a Voxtron
Communication Center Express in all of its configurations will work on a SQL Server Express

Upgrade path
• Voxtron Communication Center is because of it’s new architecture a different product from agenTel
• There is no upgrade procedure for customers having agenTel and wanting to move to Voxtron Communication Center Express
• Voxtron will make available a data import tool within 4 months after release. This data import tool gathers the agenTel administration and configuration data and loads them into the Voxtron Communication Center Datastore
• Reporting modules in Voxtron Communication Center and agenTel are not compatible; therefore the data import tool will not include the statistical data
