ACE To Go

When mobility is a priority

A mobile app for handling calls and callbacks on your smartphone

With ACE To Go installed on your smartphone you have all main functions for handling calls in the ACE-powered contact center. Serve queues and waiting lists to answer incoming calls and make scheduled or pending callback calls. For incoming calls, there is an assistance function to let you forward a contact to another queue, person in the ACE address book or any number. For callback calls, the user can leave feedback on the outcome, just like in the full web client ACE Interact.

These basic but powerful functions open for new smart ways of working and evolving the contact center in organizations that use Telia ACE. For example, it will be easy to let experts and back-office staff add competence to the contact center in a structured manner. Or create a second line queue served by colleagues on-call for those complex issues. A smartphone app won’t tie them to a desk, and notifications will make it clear whether it’s an incoming ACE contact when the phone rings.

About ACE To Go

In short
  • Staff at call
  • Personnel on the field or in store may help out at peak load
  • Personnel working from home
  • Personnel with need for mobility within or outside the office

ACE Email

 With intelligent text analysis and advanced automatic responses

Optimised email

Would your customers like to contact you by email? ACE Email includes several features that make customers feel well taken care of. For example, intelligent text analysis and advanced automatic response. These can be configured so that customers receive different responses depending on the email’s content, queue time, and queue location. The text analysis is used to route the email to the right person with the right skills.

ACE Email routes the messages to the agents in ACE Interact in the same way as any other media. To help, the agent has ready-made answers from ACE Knowledge, spelling, alternative return addresses, and other smart features. The email conversations are saved in the Interaction View contact store.

About ACE email

In short
  • The agent’s tools make it easy to reply to emails
  • Routed forward and queued as other contact types
  • Saved in Interaction View and can be easily searched if necessary
Details

Fully integrated into omnichannel

All ACE general omnichannel policies (routing, administration, reporting, intent detection) also work for email. The management and prioritization of e-mail can be customized to fit with other more time-critical media in an omnichannel strategy. E-mail messages can be automatically forwarded or put on a waiting list where the agent can preview the content with mouseover and pick what matches competence.

E-mail can be controlled and mixed with other channels or handled separately. Intent and errand can be automatically identified with text analysis, pattern matching, return address, subject line, and metadata. Information compiled by ACE may be presented to the agent or used to extract additional data from ERP systems via integrations.

Automatic replies can be made more personal with language comprehension and integrations with back-end systems. The routing engine can escalate e-mail automatically based on business data/rules such as SLA. The agent can direct further e-mails to colleagues or queues.

Statistics

Statistics and data are collected and stored in Telia ACE’s central interaction database with the same metric as for other channels. This creates uniform processing and makes it possible to compare data for channels in a combined strategy.

Create email deflection with smart contact forms

By adding ACE Knowledge to the mix, e-mail from contact forms can in some cases be completely discouraged.  This works by ACE Knowledge analyzing the form text and directly presenting content from the knowledge base that matches the customer’s query before the customer presses “submit”.

Helpful auto replies

Intent, case, and content of e-mail messages can be identified by various methods such as rule-based identification where words in the case line are matched to predetermined words. Other options such as social security number, case number or membership number can also be used and with ACE Knowledge it is possible to use Natural Language Understanding.

ACE Knowledge requires a separate license.

  • Rule-based – match against keywords in case line or content
  • Pattern matching – social security number, membership number, case number, etc.
  • Natural language understanding (NLU) – for a more fine-grain classification (requires separate license for ACE Knowledge)

Access to all interactions

A threaded view of the dialogue is available and presented in ACE Interaction View. It makes it easy for any agent to go back and see the customer’s previus contacts across channels. For text based interactions like chat and email the actual content of the interaction is available.

Emails can also be put on hold while the agent works to solve the case. Relevant stats for the interaction are still recorded by ACE.

Macros and shortcuts

It’s possible to set up shortcuts for predefined common answers and phrases as well as for strings like agent name, date, customer name, case number or other interaction data keys related to the email.

Different teams can have different sets of shortcuts. Macros are managed by the team coach.

Smart knowledge base

With ACE Knowledge,  it’s possible to provide more detailed answers using text your smart knowledgebase, including attachments and links.  Naturally you have access to spell-check and personal signatures and it’s possible to configure multiple selectable senders.

ACE Knowledge requires a separate license.

Place emails in queues and waiting lists

An agent may put an email back in a queue or in the personal waiting list of another agent. Any draft reply is included so that a colleague can pick up and finalize in a simple workflow.

Address book built in

The agent has access to a personal address book, a central address book and may also use the organisation catalogue for lookups.

Advisory meetings made easy

BookMe offers a simple booking process for the customer who can book personal meetings directly on the web.

Write a brief description of the meeting, set up which group of agents will handle the meeting, and finish by creating sms and email confirmation and reminders.

Each meeting type has a group of agents associated with it. An agent can belong to several different meeting types in BookMe.

BookMe can use information provided by the customer at the time of booking to personalize email confirmations and reminders.

ACE Callback online

Simplify the step from web or app to call

Let the customer order dial-in on the web

Callback makes the contact center easily available online, on the web, and in mobile apps. You choose how it should work and regardless of the model, it is a seamless experience for the customer who does not have to wait in a phone queue. 

Choose whether the customer should be allowed to book an appointment during your opening hours or if the callback should be made as soon as possible. The latter option further improves the customer experience by allowing you to view an estimated waiting time directly on the website. 

About Callback online

In short
  • Increased availability
  • Seamless experience for the customer
  • Possible to view expected queue times
Details

Book callbacks online

Callback can be offered for immediate calls or by allowing the customer to choose a suitable time from a schedule. At the scheduled time, the call is routed to an agent. If the option to specify the task type is used, the call is directed to an agent with the right skills. 

Easy to configure

The coach can easily configure different opening hours for different teams so that the customer is directed to an agent with the right skills. It is also possible to configure other things, such as the automatic acceptance of  callbacks. 

View availibility on the web

The customer can be offered to book an appointment onthe website based on opening hours that also take into account holidays or other changes to the opening hours. It is possible to configure how far in the future the customer can book a callback, for example today or ten days ahead. If you choose to let the customer book a call right away, the current queue time will be displayed instead. 

Instant or booked callbacks

On the same web page, instant or booked callback can be offered depending on context, such as bot conversation or via navigation. Even a voice bot or free speech solution can provide callbacks with errand type based on identified intent. 

Errand types

Callback can be provided with different errand types based on context on the website so that it is securely routed to an agent with the right skills, and for smart follow-up in the statistics. If ACE Chatbot offers callback, it can add a case type based on context and conversation that puts the callback right. 

Agent’s possibilities

During the call, the agent can add information, such as comments. Any information added will be included if the call is forwarded to another agent. The agent can give feedback on how the callback call went as part of the wrap-up, the feedback can be followed up in the statistics. If the agent creates a callback during the contact, some fields are prefilled with information from the contact 

Queue status

The current callback queue status can be monitored in real time in ACE Monitor. 

Agent opportunities

During the call, the agent can add information, e.g. comment. All information added is included if the call is forwarded to another agent. The agent can provide feedback on how the callback call went as part of the wrap-up, the feedback can be followed up in the statistics. If the agent creates a callback during an ongoing contact, some fields are filled with information from the contact

Queue status

Current queue status for callback can be monitored in real time in ACE Monitor.

ACE Chat

Covers all needs for text-based conversations

Convenient way to meet the customer online

ACE Chat includes ready-made features that allow your customers to chat with your agents via web or app. It’s easy to customize the color and shape of the chat card to fit with your web and graphic profile. It is also possible to allow the customer to identify themselves with, for example, Mobile BankID. 

The agent writes and responds in ACE Interact, the text is spell-checked, and the agent can easily use ready-made answers from ACE Knowledge. The agent uses their time as efficiently as it is possible to have multiple chats running at the same time. If the customer wants to save the conversation, it’s easy to send it by email after the end of the chat and it’s also stored in ace interact’s contact archive. 

About ACE Chat

In short
  • Integrated into ACE Omnichannel
  • Chatbot history handover support
  • Secure link management
Details

Complete chat function with great benefits

All ACE general omnichannel policies (routing, administration, reporting, intent identification) apply to chat. The agent can see in ACE Interact if the customer is securely authenticated, for example with Mobile BankID and who the customer is. Chat sessions are encrypted to protect customer privacy. 

General routing policy

Telia ACE general routing policies are applied to chats. Chats can be routed based on several different intents. Customer data and the customer’s intent are compiled on the web and accessible for the agents. The same data can be used to automatically look up information in underlying ERP systems. Chats can be forwarded to colleagues or other queues if necessary, and all information is included during the chat’s lifetime. 

Chats are routed to agents using push and pull or a combination of both. 

Statistics

Statistics and interaction data are stored and compiled in a common database and with the same metrics as other channels. This ensures consistent channel interaction statistics. Statistical metrics are synchronized with each chat status, to avoid duplicates on, for example, AHT. 

Configuration and customizations

Webchat is presented on the web page with an inline, floating or bot widget. The SDK includes features for queue information and opening hours. The configuration and customization of chat widgets is done in a graphical interface, both styling and icons. 

Integrate with ACE Knowledge

Chat contact form or contact us data can be integrated with ACE Knowledge. With ACE Knowledge, relevant answers to the customer’s question are presented directly in the chat, limiting the need to send emails. 

Chat opening hours

Opening hours are configured in ACE Coach and presented seamlessly in the widget on the website 

More features

Offer the customer to switch to video calls or to have a copy of the conversation emailed after the chat ends. ACE Video requires a separate license. 

Examples of features

  • Targets for the number of concurrent chats can be configured at the individual level. The system automatically controls the chats according to routing policies until the target is reached. Agents can engage in more conversations by accepting more chats 
  • A threaded conversation history is available in ACE Interaction View. This is useful when different agents have had multiple interactions over time, in different channels, with the customer. For text-based interactions, the content of the conversation, automatized default phrases such as greetings and endings are displayed. It saves time for agents.  
  • Stored responses saves time and quality assures communication— keyboard shortcuts for common responses—macros that expand to agent name, date, customer name, case ID, or other interaction data related to chat— macros can be administered by the coach— different sets of saved responses can be defined for different teams
  • ACE Knowledge, can be used for more comprehensive responses including attachments and links 
  • Spell checker for agent’s response

  • Integrated features for information about queue times and opening hours 
  • Color and shape CSS 
  • Customize widgets or apps with the Web SDK 
  • The agent can reply to chats from a list, or chats can be automatically distributed until each agent’s individual parallel chat targets are reached.

ACE Campaign & Dialer

Flexible and efficient outbound telephony campaigns

Reach new customers.

Many organizations need to contact a large number of people over the phone. This can be for sales campaigns, follow-ups, surveys or citizen information. By importing the contact information into Telia ACE, the agent does not need to dial any numbers. Calls are automatically scheduled and routed to the agent. 

ACE Dialer gives your contact center powerful features for efficient outbound telephony. This means that you maximize the number of calls answered, minimize unproductive time for your employees and access detailed statistics for outcomes, insights and follow-up.

About ACE Campaign & Dialer

In short
  • Powerful and configurable campaign telephony
  • Dynamic distribution of agents between inbound and outbound telephony
  • Easy import of ring lists
Details

Reach the right people at the right time

With Telia ACE Campaign & Dialer, it’s easy to plan and schedule campaigns. It is important to be able to easily reach the right people at the right time and in ACE Campaign &  Dialer there are features for processing and prioritizing different address records to, for example, reach different target groups at different times. Efficiency is also increased by ACE Campaign & Dialer automatically adapting to the response rate, thus reaching more customers. 

Automatic dialing saves time when a call is connected to an agent only after the call has been answered by the customer. Time is also saved between each call and, in addition, busy lines and no answer-calls are sorted out, i.e. those calls are not routed. The dialer can also use over-dialing. The dialer then makes extra calls based on available agents and statistical models. Over-dialing minimizes the time when an agent is waiting for a new call. 

Key features

  • Calls can start when there is an agent available or dynamically, based on what the system learns about audience behavior, such as response rate. It allows more calls to be made.  
  • Automatic balancing of the number of agents in outbound and incoming telephony teams. If the waiting time for incoming interactions is too long, agents can automatically be moved from campaign to incoming queues 
  • If you want to work with campaigns without a dynamic dialer, there are two methods: calls are assigned to the agent automatically or the agent can pick calls from the preview dialing list 
  • Campaigns can be started, stopped, paused manually, or automatically on schedule. For example, campaigns can be timed to stop at certain times of the day, e.g. so that no calls are made after 21:00 
  • With a priority schedule, it is possible to have different strategies that prioritize which campaign records to call out at different times. It provides the opportunity to increase the response rate based on knowledge of when different target groups are available 
  • Dialing number is adjustable per campaign 
  • Ace Knowledge call script to support the agent (ACE Knowledge requires a separate license) 
  • The agent can provide feedback on how the calls went:
    • Close – The agent has reached out with his message and has received successful acceptance, e.g. received order or completed survey
    • Declined – The agent has reached out with his message but has received negative acceptance, e.g. not interested, already has the product
    • Loss – The agent has not been able to get his message across, such as the wrong number, no longer lives here or speaks another language 

More features

  • Name your own reasons that describe why it was Close, Declined or Loss.  For example, Close – received order, Declined – not interested, Loss – does not understand Swedish 
  • A feedback can also be to call back later. The agent can then choose whether someone else working on the campaign should call back or whether to call back in person 
  • The system can automatically document feedback for events such as “no response”, “busy”, “blocked”, etc. 
  • You can set rules for automatically rescheduling calls in certain outcomes, such as try again after five minutes at busy or call the next day in case of no response 
  • Priority on individual campaign records can be set or changed based on outcome, via import or based on schedule and business logic
  • You can have multiple phone numbers, to call from, per campaign post 
  • It’s easy to import new campaign records or close stale campaign records from a text file, Excel file, or through an open API 
  • Ability to export connection and bleeds for campaign records 
  • Real-time monitoring and follow-up with ACE Monitor 
  • The coach can easily track progress and results with statistical reports and see the current state of the campaign and those working on it 
  • You can set a maximum cap on the percentage of “silent calls”, and the system ensures that no more than one “silent call” takes place against a phone number

ACE Chatbot

Humanlike and automated customer meetings

Quick responses give satisfied customers

The chatbot relieves agents by solving many common customer questions on its own. When necessary, the chatbot hands over the conversation to an agent with the right skills for the identified errand. Then the conversation continues seamlessly in the same window. The customer does not have to tell the same things more times and the agent quickly gets full control of the situation. 

The intelligence in the system helps the chatbot interpret customers’ behaviors of what kind of information or help they are looking for. It is designed to be curious and teachable and also constantly builds new knowledge based on the customer’s questions. This means, for example, that it quickly gets to know abbreviations and learns to draw the right conclusions based on context. 

Chatbot can, like a solution based on free speech, identify hundreds of different errand types (intents) which creates detailed statistics and makes any forwarding very accurate. 

About ACE Chatbot

In short
  • Easy to deploy, configure and maintain
  • Takes care of the most frequently asked questions
  • Relieves the agents
  • Identifies cases and moves on to the right skills
Details

Fully integrated chatbot

ACE Chatbot is an integrated component of ACE following all general omnichannel policies (routing, administration, reporting, etc.m.) as other functions of ACE. 

Deploy and train

The chatbot can be set up in app or on web according to wishes and needs. The user cases are modeled in ACE Knowledge and the bot is integrated using scripts that retrieve the software from our cloud service or own storage.
