Release Notes

 

Release Summary

This release introduces several significant features to enhance system functionality and improve the user experience. This release primarily focuses on integrating the Expertflow voice recording solution with EF-CX. The GUI now includes new columns such as Call Duration Display, Hold Timer, and Wrap-Up /Work-Codes, with these details synchronized from EF-CX to the voice recording solution. Another notable enhancement is the Call Listened Indicator. Users can customize their experience by adjusting the columns to their preferences. Additionally, they can search and filter recordings based on Hold Time, Call Duration, and Wrap-Up Codes, which improves the system’s overall usability and efficiency.

This release is not tested with Cisco CCE/CCX. Refer to version 14.2 for deployment against CCE/CCX

  Description

Call Duration

Call Duration column displays the total time of a call between the agent and the customer. The timer begins counting when the call rings at the Agent Desk. The total call duration is then shown in the Call Duration column. The call duration is displayed in hours, minutes, and seconds, following the format HH:MM:SS

Hold Time

Hold Time column displays the duration for which the agent placed the call on hold. When the agent presses the hold button, the timer starts counting the hold time. This duration also shows in hours, minutes, and seconds, using the format HH:MM:SS

Wrap-up Codes

Wrap-Up Codes column displays the wrap-up codes that the agent applied to the conversation. Also known as work codes, these codes summarize or indicate the end result of a call. Multiple codes are listed and separated by commas. Additionally, when hovering over the codes, a tooltip appears displaying all the codes

Call Listened Indicator

Call Listened Indicator is a new enhancement introduced in the system. When a user plays a specific recording, double blue ticks appear next to that recording. Recordings that have not been played will not display these double ticks. Additionally, once a recording has been played, hovering over the double ticks will reveal the name of the user who last accessed the recording.

Limitations

Summary

Description 

Container/Component Level Failover

VRS High Availability does not support container-level failover. As a result, if a component on one server experiences downtime, the corresponding component on another server will not be notified of the downtime.

Same Subnet

VRS Servers must Reside on the Same Subnet for High Availability Mode.

Frontend Failover

When a failover occurs, user on the frontend will not receive any notification about the failover. Additionally, it must refresh the page or re-login to play and download recordings.

Failover during call

Failover during an ongoing call is not supported. Therefore, if the server goes down during a call, the recording will not be saved in the system.

Keepalive and APIs

If the keepalive service is down on one server and the backend APIs are down on the other server, the Virtual IP will become inaccessible.

Recorder and Mixer Binding

The Recorder and Mixer components lack High Availability. Consequently, if the Recorder is recording during a call and its Mixer fails, the alternate Mixer on the other VRS Server won't be able to mix the streams.
