Track: SIP in the Contact Center Certification (SIP)
|
Adoption of IP in the Next-Generation Contact Center
(SIP-02)
Tuesday - 09/16/08, 10:00-10:45am
Today’s call centers can gracefully migrate to IP telephony and unified communications solutions, by converting their access to IP and their signaling to SIP. The SIP protocol is inherently flexible, and service providers, equipment/software vendors, and contact center operators can leverage this flexibility to build powerful multi-media applications that will enable the best possible user interface and customer service experience. The breadth and versatility of these applications translate into significant, measurable productivity gains for the enterprise. The time is now, the market is moving, and businesses large and small are building plans and implementing IP telephony in their next generation contact centers. Are You?

• What new forms of contact center communications are enabled by IP?
• What new network elements are required in the next-gen IP contact center?
• What are the cost advantages of using IP in the contact center?
