Sentiment and agent empathy analysis for Danish, Finnish, Hebrew, Norwegian, Polish, and Swedish languages (early preview)

Sentiment and agent empathy analysis support is now available in early preview for Danish Denmark (da-DK), Finnish Finland (fi-FI), Hebrew Israel (he-IL), Norwegian Norway (nb-NO), Polish Poland (pl-PL), and Swedish Sweden (sv-SE) languages. Sentiment analysis detects negative and positive sentiments in transcripts, and agent empathy analysis detects empathetic and unhelpful phrases in transcripts.

Improved sentiment analysis for French and Spanish languages

Genesys Cloud improved sentiment analysis and added support for agent empathy analysis for French and Spanish dialects.

Speech analytics in Genesys Cloud EX

Post-call speech analytics features are now available for Genesys Cloud EX external voice interactions. This feature enables administrators and contact center managers to gain insight into customer and agent conversations through sentiment analysis and topic trends.

Agent empathy analysis

Genesys Cloud now measures and reports on agent empathy in their interactions with customers. The reporting results help analysts improve performance management, agent evaluation, coaching, and training to improve the overall customer experience. This feature reinforces a Genesys core value to embrace empathy and enables organizations to provide a favorable customer experience with empathy as the focus.

Agent desktop email user interface enhancements

Genesys Cloud has an improved agent email user interface, including enhanced thread handling, visual hints, resolution of known issues, and maintains parity with the previous version. The updated interface offers a more user-friendly experience and also introduces new, smaller features that do not affect existing functionality.

Headset call control buttons in embedded clients

Agents can now use call control buttons on their headsets, including pick up, mute, and volume control, when they use the embedded clients. Previously, agents could not use headset hardware to perform these functions.

Deprecation: Legacy historical adherence query route

On April 24, 2024, Genesys will deprecate the legacy historical adherence route across management units and replace it with new bulk routes. Genesys recommends that customers who use the legacy route transition to the new bulk routes. Genesys will lower the rate limit for the deprecated route, but will not change the rate above the new limit for existing customers who currently call the deprecated route.

Deprecation: Native LINE third-party messaging channel

On April 24th, 2024, Genesys will discontinue support for the native LINE third-party messaging channel. To continue using LINE messaging, customers can explore the AppFoundry solutions that offer LINE messaging capabilities integrated with Genesys Cloud. Customers can also choose to build their own connection to Genesys Cloud for LINE messaging using the Open Messaging API solutions.
