ACD & Contact Centres

Compact Call Centre (CCC) Server - Base System Provides one supervisor position, with real-time information view, management by exception configuration (alarms), plus historical reports on all aspect of the contact centre. Up to 73 standard reports can viewed or printed. Also included are reporting capabilities for 5 agents and one license for a PC Wallboard (PCWB) application.

Real Time Reporting (Call Centre View – CCV)

As many as 20 supervisor positions (CCV) can be purchased in total for CCC (note: MSDE installations can only be supported up to 5 supervisor positions). This provides a supervisor with the ability to monitor in real time the grade of service provided to customers. There are up to 12 separate real-time graphs that can be viewed by the supervisor. Alarms also appear in real time forcing the supervisor to acknowledge them as they occur.

Phone Manger Pro: Agent Enabled

Provides agents with Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) application where they can log in, join groups and go into busy status when they are away from their desks for short periods. Provides a lower cost of ownership as proprietary handsets are not required. For IP users, Phone Manager PC Softphone can be used in agent mode as well, without the use of a handset. Please refer to the applications section for more information on Phone Manager Pro.

Alarm Reporter

Alarm Reporter has been designed to enhance the exception management used by Call Centre View (CCV). The Alarm Reporter enables the contact centre supervisor to look back on the performance of the contact centre, on a daily or weekly basis, by reporting on certain criteria predefined by the contact centre supervisor.

CCC Reporter

The system can allow up to 20 separate Report Viewers within the contact centre (for MSDE installations, up to 5 viewers are supported). Access to the standard reports is a thin client application based on Crystal Reports. Up to 75 standard reports are available, with the ability to create up to 3 custom reports out of the box! (Requires additional software, see Custom reports below). Reports can also be exported to a variety of formats, including Excel, CSV, HTML and PDF.

Custom Reports

Starting with Compact Contact Centre version 5, all reports are Crystal Reports based. This provides a much richer experience for the small to mid-market customer and creates an environment where custom reporting is made more accessible. To create more than 3 custom reports requires the designer license (IPO CCC DESIGNER RFA) AND a compatible version of Crystal Reporting software (Crystal version 9).

Historical Reporting

The Compact Contact Centre archives all call centre interactions (telephony or multimedia) to a central database (MSDE or SQL). This provides a rich set of standard reports to the business and the capability to create custom reports.

Microsoft CRM™ Integrated Reporting

Compact Contact Centre provides a selection of reports that integrate the information between Microsoft CRM™ and Compact Contact Centre. This combination of CRM and IP Communications is provided together as IP Office Customer Management. This allows Small Businesses to integrate all contact points within a business in such a way that will transform it. Optional Components

MultiMedia Module (MMM)


The MultiMedia Module (MMM) provides CCC with new routing schemes. It will also provide combined reporting for all interactions within the contact centre. IP Office ensures that an organisation can implement and measure a service level agreement against all aspects of the customer contact process – for example ensuring that all emails receive a reply within half an hour of them being sent. There are several queue types supported in the MMM; they are:

Email Queues

A multimedia agent would receive emails from the queue and reply via MS-Outlook™ client interface. Emails queuing can be supported on POP3 or MS-Exchange™ servers.


Chat Queues

Utilises the Microsoft Chat™ interface to route requests for real-time chat between a customer and agent, providing that much needed response, in real time, for your online customers.

Web Callback

For those online customers wanting a real person to speak to instead of a chat session, web callback enables them to leave their callback number, once that is sent to an agent, the system can automatically call back the customer, providing savings in time and better customer satisfaction, with increased efficiency.

Proactive List Dialling (Preview Dialling)

Import your direct marketing lists to Excel based datasheets and the Proactive List will create an outbound campaign for your agents. Agents can accept particular contacts (if desired) or have automatic acceptance. Result codes can determine if the call was successful or if it needs to be placed back in the queue for rescheduling.

Traditional Wall Mounted Wallboards

CCC supports two physical wallboards (also known as reader boards or display boards); Spectrum (model 3214C, previously known as the 4120C) and the CCM WB/22. Both wallboards are 22 characters, tri-colour, and two-line unit each. Up to 16 wallboards may be driven from the wallboard server. The Spectrum wallboard, when purchased as a Master Kit, will provide a communications module for use with the boards, which are then connected in serial. For those using the Wallboard/22, the communications card is shipped with a single cable able to drive the wallboards. Wall Mounted Wallboards are not available in all territories; please check with your Avaya representative for more information.
In addition to the physical Spectrum wall-mounted wallboard an IP Office license is required when being used with CCC. This IP Office license supports 4 x Spectrum wall-mounted wallboards. If more than 4 wall-mounted wallboards are required additional license keys must be purchased (each license key supports 4 wallboards at a time). A maximum of 16 wall-mounted wallboards can be supported.

PC Wallboard

The PC Wallboard delivers traditional wallboard functionality to the contact centre manager and contact centre agent's desktop but with the additional benefit of each agent being able to configure and monitor a personalized view of the contact centre via their own PC wallboard. Supervisors can provide one template for all users in order to standardize the view that agents obtain when starting PC Wallboard

A CCC agent is able to split their PC Wallboard into twenty (20) different variables (refer to CCC System Administrator manual for details) that allow different measures of groups and agents in real-time. The data that is selected is identical to that of the physical wallboard. Examples of this are; Answered Calls, Longest Call Waiting, Agents logged in, and Lost
