A system and method for associating an audio clip with an object is provided wherein the voice-based system, such as a voicemail system, is used to record the audio clips.

Certain aspects of the disclosure are directed to routing decisions implemented in response to VoIP telephone calls. According to a specific example, in response to the VoIP telephone calls, a first set of one or more documents are identified and executed to make routing decisions for the VoIP telephone calls. A second set of one or more documents are then identified based upon an association with the routing decisions. The second set of documents identify data to be retrieved from data sources. In response to the data, call control functionality is provided for the VoIP calls.

Aspects are directed toward use of data communications server(s) and a Platform as a Service (PaaS) interface to provide remote services for endpoint devices of a plurality disparate client entities. In one example, an apparatus includes a computing server to provide data communications for a plurality of endpoint devices respectively associated with a plurality of disparate client entities according to and responsive to client-specific sets of control data. The apparatus also includes a processing circuit configured to adjust routing of the communications by the computing server, in response to call event data generated by the computing server, by generating the client-specific sets of control data for each client entity according to a respective set of directives.

Responsive to concurrently recording on a plurality of recorders a telephonic interaction constructing a plurality of playlists, and according to faults identified while recording the plurality of playlists evaluating a quantitative quality score for each playlist in the plurality of playlists and presenting the playlists in a prioritized order according to the scores thereof.

Disclosed is a method for establishing a telecommunications link (C1, C2, C3) for a user to whom a first communications terminal (D1) is allocated. According to said method, an allocation information is made available to a control program (100, 22) running on a CTI server (20) for establishing the telecommunications link (C1, C2, C3), in which information a first allocation (72, 92) is defined for the first communications terminal (D1) as specified by the user, said first allocation defining an allocation of a second communications terminal (D3, D4) to the first communications terminal (D1). The telecommunications link (C1, C2, C3) is established by the control program (100, 22) in accordance with the first allocation, using the second communications terminal (D3, D4) instead of the first communications terminal (D1). The method is characterized in that in the allocation information a second allocation (70, 90) is defined, by which the first communications terminal (D1) is signaled to the control program (100, 22) as being the only terminal used by the user in the telecommunications link established (C1, C2, C3). The invention further provides a corresponding system.

A system is provided for providing communication event routing and transfer capability in a multi-site communication-center environment. The system utilizes a presence protocol application and a routing application for determining availability of an agent or system and for setting up the transfer from a point of transfer on a network to a destination of transfer on the same or connected network. In a preferred use the presence protocol application is shared by communication-center sites cooperating in the transfer and routing of events and the presence protocol enables at least one event-handling process normally performed by the routing application.

Methods, systems, and products route communications according to schedules. When an incoming communication is detected, a schedule is retrieved that is associated with a recipient's address. A time associated with the communication is compared to entries in the schedule. If a match is determined, then an alternate destination may be chosen.

Methods, systems, and products enable a healthcare facility or server to process incoming communications. When a communication is received, the time and a recipient's address may be compared to a schedule of procedures. The recipient's address may be associated with a patient or with medical personnel, such as a physician or nurse. If the time and/or the recipient's address correspond to an entry in the schedule of procedures, then an alternate destination may be chosen for the communication.

A Personal-CFC system and method is described for controlling a multiplicity of telephones, for providing extended feature sets globally to all such telephones and for routing of media-rich calls between such telephones and multimedia equipment. The Personal-CFC is a software program that is easily embedded in various devices and it requires no hardware. For example, a mobile Personal-CFC system can be incorporated into a PDA or PC. The end user can use the Personal-CFC system to control other telephones, such as conference telephones, that do not belong to the end user.

A system for tracking client contacts for a host organization utilizes a multimedia database and a user interface at a connected computer device. The database stores client communications as full content, and relates contacts by issue, and the user interface displays client contact communications as objects, such as icons, in issue related chronological strings. In a preferred embodiment the interface also provides an input facility for a host agent to select appropriate responses to client communications, to make commitments for response, to assign responsibility for commitments, and to notify personnel affected by entered commitments in various ways, such as reminders. Other notifications include fulfilled and unfulfilled commitments.
