Supervisors

Voximplant's contact center allows supervisors to connect to an active call.

There are three supervision modes available:

  • Supervision: the supervisor hears both the agent and the client, but they cannot hear the supervisor. You can use this mode for listening to the agent calls and evaluating the service quality.

  • Whispering: the supervisor hears the agent and the client, the agent hears both the supervisor and the client, and the client hears only the agent. You can use this mode for providing hints or solutions to the agent, so the client does not hear it.

  • Conference: the supervisor, the agent, and the agent hear each other. You can use this mode if the agent needs assistance when the client should hear the supervisor.
