Assigning contacts in a contact center including extracting, by a blend application, contextual information related to an inbound contact received at a first port and transmitting, by the blend application, the contextual information to an outbound dialer. The outbound dialer places an outbound call from a second port to the first port, automatically patches the second port with a third port that is associated with an agent assigned to an outbound campaign, and connects a customer device associated with the inbound contact to a device associated with the agent, during which the agent remains assigned to the outbound campaign.

Systems and methods are described to enable a device of a user to automatically join an ongoing conference, where the device is not currently joined to the conference. A first audio signature is generated based on voices of users already in the conference, and a second audio signature is generated based on an audio signal captured by a microphone of the device associated with the first user when the device associated with the first user was not joined to the conference. The first audio signature and the second audio signature are compared, and in response to determining that first audio signature matches the second audio signature, the device associated with the first user is joined to the conference.

Embodiments provide a method for providing a call center supplemental workflow tool, including: receiving from a database a workflow decisional matrix, a plurality of questions, and a plurality of scripts; displaying a web-based graphical user interface on a display providing at least one question or one script; receiving user input; determining, at least another question or at least another script, to be displayed, wherein determining is based upon the user input and the decisional matrix and advances the workflow; based upon the decisional matrix, determining that the workflow has been completed; providing an output of the questions displayed and the user input received; and the output being provided to a primary software application. Other aspects are described and claimed.

According to some embodiments, a method performed by a network node for updating system information (SI) in unlicensed spectrum includes determining to perform a SI update at a SI modification time, and for each SI update period of a plurality of SI update periods remaining before the SI modification time, transmitting a SI update notification to a wireless device. The SI update notification includes an indication of a SI modification time for when the UE should acquire updated SI. In some embodiments, the method further includes determining that the SI modification time has passed and that the SI update notification was not sent successfully for at least one SI update period of the plurality of SI update periods and transmitting a SI update notification to a wireless device including an indication that the wireless device should acquire updated SI immediately.

Remote on-demand site link testing is provided. A site link tester (SLT) system includes an SLT connected to a customer's VoIP phone system. The SLT is configured to communicate with a front end client application operating remotely on a user's computing device. The packet-capture application receives instructions from the client application to perform a packet capture in association with the SLT's network interface and/or to operate as an emulated VoIP endpoint and conduct a test call (e.g., to confirm the customer's VoIP system's compliance with 911-associated legislation or to troubleshoot a VoIP issue). Results of the packet capture may be sent to the client application and analyzed for remotely diagnosing and troubleshooting VoIP-related problems. Using the SLT system, the technician is enabled to perform 911-associated legislation compliance and diagnose VoIP issues on-demand from a remote location, which can reduce or eliminate the need for a technician to be on-site.

A system and method for callback management, utilizing a callback cloud, a digital ledger, and smart callback contracts, brokering user to user communications and session establishment using an automated workflow built upon extensible root smart contract templates which can be configured to connect various users and brands. The system may comprise callback cloud, that may further comprise a callback manager, a brand interface server, an interaction manager, a media server, one or more blockchain digital ledgers, and various smart contracts which are used to autonomously respond to received user requests.

An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) comprises a memory to store a Unified Radio Application and to store one or more configuration parameters for the Unified Radio Application, and one or more baseband processors to receive a radio application update from a remote server, and to update the Unified Radio Application via a Multiradio Interface (MURI) “updateRadioApps” operation with the received radio application update. One or more of the configuration parameters are maintained in the memory after the update.

Described are a method, system, and computer program product for accessing data about a caller from multiple data sources in real time. The method includes communicatively connecting with call handling equipment and receiving caller data including a unique caller identifier. The method also includes communicating a request for initial information to a location information database and/or an additional data repository. The method further includes reconfiguring the initial information from an inbound format to a different outbound format such that the initial information is readable by the call handling equipment, a computer aided dispatch system, and/or a public safety information management system. The method further includes communicating a request for and receiving additional information from a cloud-based repository. The method further includes communicating the additional information to the call handling equipment, the computer aided dispatch system, and/or the public safety information management system for display to a user.

Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to customization of a contact center, using a data communications server. According to a specific example, the data communications server includes circuitry configured and arranged to provide data communications services to a plurality of remotely-situated client entities. The data communications server further provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for each respective remotely-situated client entity, the GUI including a display of communications-based campaigns, interactive voice response (IVR) tools, and data analytics. Moreover, the data communications server provides a display on the GUI including selectable components to create for the associated remotely-situated client entity, a customization for handling incoming data communications by the data communications server. Accordingly, the data communications server may handle communications for the associated remotely-situated client entity according to the provided customization.

A system establishes an agent communication with a customer. An agent computer with a first processor and a first memory receives a batch notification identifying a batch of one or more customer records in the agent computer, for communication in the near future. The one or more customer records is associated with one or more customers. A second computer with a second processor and a second memory provides the batch notification identifying the batch of one or more customer records in the agent computer. The system determines a next step action by taking into account touch specific outcome correlation data, marketing outcome correlation data, and/or correlation between touch specific outcome correlation data and overall outcome data.
