Applications
The Enhanced Conference Bridge by Toshiba -Strata MeetingIf you rely on outside services to host conference calls or if you want to enhance your conference calling capabillity, Strata-Meeting- The Enhanced Conference Bridge- is a prime application that integrates with the Strata CIX™ business communication system. Some of the Useful Functions and Advantages:
Enter a conference using a Toshiba telephone set by:
Outside callers can enter the conference by:
A big benefit is the ability to exit and re-enter the conference call in the event you're called away from the meeting or need to take another call. Often times with traditional outside conference calling, if a party hangs up, they're disconnected and must be brought back in by the "set-up" person. If you're the "set-up" person and you disconnect, all outside parties are dropped. With a conference bridge, since there is no controlling party, no one is disconnected and re-entering the meeting is possible. "Rooms" can be easily scheduled and locked (for security). Many clients have found that in addition to the sheer convenience of an on-demand conference bridge, hosting their own meetings subsidizes the cost of the unit. Strata-meeting can be installed on any Toshiba CIX system with software Version 5 or above. Contact your GCC Account Executive for more information and pricing for Strata-Meeting or any other telecom application. Call us today at (781) 756-5100 or email info@generalcom.com for more information.

Call Centers:Call Centers or Contact Centers have become important strategic business tools. A well-managed contact center can serve customers quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively, providing an important competitive advantage. Toshiba provides solutions to enhance call center operations in several important ways:
• Automatic Call Distribution - directs calls in a variety of ways to suit your customer service needs and ensures calls are handled quickly and efficiently.
• Network Automatic Call Distribution - enhances multi-site contact centers enabling them to work together as one integrated call routing system. Allows contact centers to distribute agents over the network and route calls to available agents on any CIX system on the network. Network ACD provides look ahead routing to check the status of agents in other nodes before it routes the call to those agents. The MIS reports include agents and calls over the network. It also extends the functionality of Net Phone over the network to support features such as Network DSS/BLF and/or Chat between users in multiple nodes. • Multimedia Web Callback - enables online customers to initiate a “call-me-back” request by providing their name and phone number on a company’s website. When a company’s contact center representative becomes available, this Strata ACD application then automatically calls the customer. Enabling customers another method of accessing a company’s contact center, this application can provide better customer service, can reduce contact center hold times and can help reduce companies’ contact center operation costs. The Web Callback service easily integrates with a customer’s existing web pages. This service is set up similar to the current voice based callback and the call center has the same ability to generate reports they currently use. • Call Recording and Monitoring Tools - Call recording/logging enables you to record, store, organize, search, and playback telephone calls to avoid call disputes and improve the quality of training and customer services. • Call Reporting - With Toshiba’s call center applications, your call statistics and management reports are conveniently accessible online. View customized reports on everything from call statistics and agent performance to forecasting tools, auto reports, and more using any of several PC-based reporting solutions that are ideal for use with ACD applications. On-line displays and reports are an important addition to ACD, to provide enhanced supervisory monitoring of ACD activity. You can view screen displays and generate printed reports on call statistics and agent performance. • Call Router - optimizes your business’ communications and customer interactions. Your customers want to spend as little time waiting and go through as few steps as possible when they call your business. You want to minimize call times to keep your telephone bills as low as possible. With Call Router, your business rules combine with specific caller information to deliver calls to the appropriate destination within your organization. Call Router uses caller information, such as Caller ID and schedules, to automatically route calls to a particular person, call group, or automated application to improve service and satisfaction while minimizing call times. Also includes screen pops and call archiving. • Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) - combines the capabilities of the Strata CIX phone system with custom functionality provided by computer applications. This leverages the power of both devices to bring a more effective tool to the desktop.
