Analytics

Download call recordings in CDR-View Liveboard

Reference ticket: WMS-18078.

With this release, we introduce the ability to download call recordings directly from CDR-View Liveboard. This new capability allows you to easily access and save call recordings for future references. The download procedure is easy to follow: navigate to the Data Grid tab, where you'll find a column with a sound icon and click on the sound icon next to that call.

Improved Data Grid report in CDR-View Liveboard

We add two improvements to the Data Grid Report that will enhance your user experience and provide more convenient information display:

  1. Improved PBX Field: In the PBX column, you will now see the PBX domain name displayed instead of the serial number. This change makes it easier to identify and associate calls with the corresponding PBX

  2. Improved Talk Time Display: In the Talk Time column, you will now see data in the format of hh:mm:ss. This format presents the duration of each call in hours, minutes, and seconds, allowing for better readability and convenience when analyzing call durations

New Service Number column in CDR-View Liveboard

Reference ticket: WMS-18334.

We present a new column called Service Number that provides valuable information about the phone numbers associated with incoming and outgoing calls that allows you to quickly identify and distinguish the specific trunks involved in the call flow. The Service Number column displays the following details:

  • For an incoming call: the phone number of the trunk that the customer called

  • For an outgoing call: the phone number of the trunk through which the outgoing call was made and displayed to the customer

New Wait Time cColumn in CDR-View Liveboard

Reference ticket: WMS-18296.

We introduce a new column called Wait Time that provides valuable information about the waiting time in seconds for specific call scenarios such as being put on hold, interactions with IVR systems, and other non-human interactions. By displaying the Wait Time column, you gain insights into the duration of wait times for different call scenarios that can help in monitoring and optimizing your call handling processes.

Save Filters and Filter report data in CDR-View Liveboard

Reference ticket: WMS-18336.

We introduce two new features in CDR-View Liveboard that enhance your user experience and provide more flexibility in filtering and saving reports:

  1. Save Filter Settings: You can now save your filter settings, allowing you to apply the same set of filters when opening the report in the future. Additionally, the saved filter settings can be shared with other users, allowing for consistent reporting across the organization and even can used when scheduling reports

  2. Filter Report Data: You can now filter report data directly by choosing the necessary filter values within the report. This feature allows you to quickly get the displayed data without navigating to separate filter settings

Videoconference

Improved logic of storing Camera, Mic and Noise suppression preferences

With the current release, we introduce improvements to the preferences of Camera, Microphone and Noice suppression settings, providing you with a more personalized conference experience.

  • Preferred Camera and Mic Settings: Now, your chosen Camera and Mic settings will be applied across all conferences. Once you enable the camera or mic in the current conference, these preferences will remain enabled for all future meetings you participate in

  • Improved Noise Suppression: Noise suppression settings are now saved separately for different audio devices. For example, if you disable noise suppression while using a Bluetooth headset, that preference will be remembered specifically for that headset. However, if you switch to a different audio device, noise suppression will be enabled by default until manually disabled

Improved Subtitles feature

Reference ticket: WMS-17831.

We introduce the performance improvements to the Subtitles feature, ensuring better speech-to-text transcription of what is being said during conferences. These improvements relate to more accurate and reliable transcriptions, allowing you to have a clearer understanding of the conference discussions.

Also we extend the language support, currently supported languages are: English, English (British), English (Australian), Spanish (United States), Italian, French, French (Canadian), German, Portuguese (Brazilian), Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Simplified), Hindi, Thai.

Adaptive video management

Reference ticket: WMS-18281.

To optimize network performance and system resources, we introduce the improved logic in conferences. In case of a poor connection or high CPU usage, video will be automatically disabled during the conference. This ensures that the audio quality remains stable, preventing any disruptions.

Improved Picture-in-Picture feature

Reference ticket: WMS-18286.

We add a preview of participants' videos within the Picture-in-Picture feature, providing you with a more comprehensive visual experience during conferences. When you enable Tile view mode in x-bees during a conference and enable the Picture-in-Picture view, you will have the ability to preview the videos of other participants.

Improved Phonebook integration

This field associates contacts with their respective organizations so you can keep track on companies information.

Improved HubSpot/ Salesforce integration
