Mitel Releases MiContact Center 7.0
Mitel today unveiled MiContact Center 7.0, which includes mobile chat and self-service features as well as outbound capabilities.
In addition to more contact options for customers, MiContact Center now enables quicker and more immersive service by equipping agents with richer customer information collected from across all media channels. Support for mobile supervisors using real-time management applications can further streamline customer service.
The new release also includes MiContact Center Outbound portfolio, which introduces new preview and predictive dialing capabilities, as well as campaign and agent scripting capabilities.
"Finding easier ways for businesses to engage customers via their preferred media and devices is a top priority for contact centers, with a growing focus on mobile and self-service features. MiContact Center not only delivers on this, but also integrates communication across all channels to deliver a single customer experience. For example, organizations can post contact options on their Web site along with estimated wait times, empowering customers to decide how they contact the business," said Todd Simons, director of product solutions at Mitel, in a statement. "Contact centers are about providing great customer service for inbound calls and also enabling engaging outbound calls that can really add to the bottom line. MiContact Center Outbound is designed to greatly improve the outbound experience with features that can improve agent productivity for more prompt, informed customer service."
