Voice and Video Workbench

An agent uses the voice and video workbench to handle customer businesses through inbound and outbound voice calls.

An agent can open the voice and video workbench in either of the following ways:

  • Choose Call.
  • After an agent signs in, the voice and video workbench is automatically opened. Alternatively, you can make an inbound or outbound call through the connection bar. After the call is connected, the voice and video workbench is automatically opened.

When an agent opens the voice and video workbench page for the first time, the system displays the setting guides, for example, the description of adjusting the card width, moving a card, deleting a card, and the button for editing the voice and video workbench.

Voice and Video Workbench shows the voice and video workbench GUI.
