New Omnichannel Capabilities for Contact Center Services

In addition to the unveiling of a new brand in its wholesale division, Windstream Enterprise has new omnichannel capabilities. Its OfficeSuite UC Contact Center Service (CCS) platform connects a company’s touch points. It sustains the context of each customer interaction across multiple digital channels.

OfficeSuite UC CCS centralizes voice, chat and text messaging management within its interface. This equips contact center administrators and their agents with advanced visibility and control. These features within the platform aim to improve agent efficiency. They enable customers to move seamlessly between communication channels without encountering any dead ends, resulting in a superior customer experience.

Austin Herrington is vice president of product management at Windstream Enterprise.

“Our CCS platform has been developed with features that enterprises need to meet customers in the digital channel of their choice and integrate all touchpoints into one unified experience,” Herrington said.

Enhancements to the platform include advanced skills-based routing, which allows administrators to auto-route incoming communications to the most suitable agent based on call priority, agent proficiency and availability.

To fully leverage these omnichannel functionalities, OfficeSuite UC CCS provides a multimedia license that enables the bundling of multiple communication channels. It results in cost savings, improved functionality and greater productivity. Windstream Enterprise’s WE Connect portal integrates visibility and control of these features. It’s a single pane of glass where all chat and SMS/MMS conversations and skills-based routing can be directly managed.
