Status metrics for multiple queues on Performance Dashboards

Contact center managers and supervisors can now view status metrics across multiple queues in one widget on their Performance Dashboards. This feature displays agent status metrics in real time across multiple queues in one widget and allows managers and supervisors to allocate resources efficiently. Previously, widgets displayed agents’ status for only one queue at a time. For more information, see Add and edit Performance Dashboards. This feature requires one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud CX 1, Genesys Cloud CX 2, Genesys Cloud CX 3, or Genesys Cloud EX.

Support for capitalization and punctuation in native voice transcription for English transcripts

Genesys native voice transcription in English now adds capitalization, periods, question marks, and commas where applicable. This improvement enhances transcript readability and does not impact sentiment analysis, topic spotting, or content search performance. For more information, see Work with a voice transcript. This feature requires one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud CX 2 WEM Add-on I, or Genesys Cloud CX 3. 

Improved sentiment analysis for English

Genesys Cloud updated its English sentiment analysis model. The updated model uses context from surrounding phrases to improve the detection rates of positive and negative sentiments. The use of context means that the same phrase in different interactions can have different scores. This update affects both sentiment scores and trends. For more information, see About sentiment analysis. This feature requires one of the following subscriptions: Genesys Cloud CX 1 WEM Add-on II, or Genesys Cloud CX 2 WEM Add-on I, or Genesys Cloud CX 3.
