Mitel MiVoice Business/MCD/3300 / Re: Helpdesk Divert - Best Practices

I was hoping that it was feasible that alongside ACD queuing, calls can be offered if they are waiting (no agents unavailable) to an external source, such as a mobile\land line etc to relieve the experience for customers, meeting our SLA's and customer expectations and so on and so forth.

Mitel MiVoice Business/MCD/3300 / Helpdesk Divert - Best Practices

« on: March 05, 2015, 10:04:08 AM »

Hi,

I'd like to know what the Mitel Guru's think about the following scenario, we are using a 3300/CCM IVR environment and both are on the previous software version, which is getting updated soon.

We have queues for each of our customers, and the queue operating times vary per their service agreement e.g. 9-5, 9-11, 24h etc which is handled via the IVR and call flows very nicely. Historically, our office closed its doors at 9pm meaning we could put the queues to dnd via a schedule and divert the inbound traffic to a mobile via something along the lines of (below) which worked very well, a change of divert duty number change is just done in the system speed call list.

Queue Unavailable Answer Point -> System Speed Call (mobile number).

However now we have decided to employ ACD Agents during the night for 24h eligible customers and so on, and these queues are permanently in ACD via the schedule. I have fiddled with the use of interflowing to the above speed call, but during the day this is a complete nuisance.

My question is, how to business's with a similar helpdesk environment typically handle busy overflow diverts to mobile? I wouldn't be surprised if our current methods are not the best practice available. During the day I want callers to queue, and during the night I want queuing calls to also go to a man on a mobile phone.

Thoughts are extremely appreciated

Regards,

Ellis
