Recording Agent Calls
The UltraVox Equate and Reporta modules provide the call centre supervisor with essential management information on agent performance in terms of call answering times and time spent on calls. The conversation recording module allows the supervisor to selectively record individual calls to agents, extending the level of control and supervision.
Agent call recording allows the supervisor to:
- Monitor agents with long call times for advice and training
- Use conversations for general training purposes
- Protect against abuse
|
| In addition, recorded messages can be used as transaction records, for cross reference when customer queries arise. |
Overview
UVVL Features
UltraVox Requirements
Overview
Agent Call Conversation Recording is an optional module of the Equate Automatic Call Distribution System.
The Equate is a software module in the Storacall UltraVox system. The Equate can run as a stand alone call distribution system or integrated with other UltraVox modules to provide a complete Call Processing Solution. The UltraVox will connect to virtually any telephone system.
Supervisor Control
From the Supervisor Console, the supervisor can select one or many agents to have calls recorded. For each agent, the supervisor can choose to:
 |
Record All Calls
Every call the agent receives is recorded to the supervisor's mailbox. This option is suitable for transaction recording or where there is a problem with a particular agent. |
|
 |
Record Some Calls
Only a selection of calls are recorded - the supervisor can choose what proportion of calls are chosen, between 1 in 2 and 1 in 9. This is useful for spot checks and training. |
 |
Record Next Call
The next call the agent receives will be recorded.
|
Playing Back the Calls
Calls will be recorded into a nominated mailbox, normally that belonging to the supervisor. Where the Equate serves a number of departments, the calls for agents within each department may be recorded in different mailboxes.
The supervisor can dial in to the UltraVox from any phone and listen to recordings. Normal transcription controls are available, including fast-forward, pause and rewind. Each recording may have a reference number which can be played to the agent and displayed on the main screen. Recordings may be retrieved by reference number. With the UltraVox Equate, recordings may also be played through the supervisor console speaker.
Archiving and Deleting Conversation Recordings
Conversation recordings may be saved for later reference. In the case of transaction recordings, it may be desirable to keep all recordings for a set period of time. In this case, the UltraVox may be programmed to automatically delete recordings when they reach a certain age.
Recording Warnings
Before a particular call is recorded, both caller and agent can receive a spoken warning, such as 'Please be aware that your call may be recorded', or a warning tone, or both. Please note that it is a legal requirement that you inform your callers that you are recording their conversations. The warning may either be verbal or in literature which they will have read before making the call.

UltraVox Requirements
The Agent Conversation Recording module will function with the following modules: |
 |
UltraVox QueueCall with UCD
The QueueCall UCD will support the options to record all calls, no calls or some calls for each agent. Recording the next call requires the supervisor console which is not available without the ACD/ICD options. |
 |
UltraVox Equate
The Equate ACD and ICD will support the options to record all calls, no calls or some calls for each agent. Recording the next call requires the supervisor console. |
 |
QueueCall 7.0
QueueCall Version 7.0 supports the conversation recording option, with the same limitations as above applying to the supervisor console. |
 |
Extension Port Capacity
As each agent conversation is being recorded, or played back, a port on the UltraVox or QueueCall is used for the duration of the conversation. This may require a revision of the capacity of an existing system if the module is subsequently added. This should be discussed with a Storacall Technical Sales Representative.
|
Supervisor Console
The Supervisor Console gives the supervisor full visibility over agent activity as well as the ability to control availability. Recording may be controlled from the console. See data sheet 2100 for full details.
PABX Requirements
The Agent Conversation Recording module makes use of a three party conferencing facility on the connected telephone system (PABX) or Centrex service. Please check with a Storacall Technical Sales Representative that this facility is available on your system.
