Contact center

Introducing sentiment analysis

The new sentiment analysis feature enables contact center supervisors to understand a customer’s attitude during an audio interaction, based on the language used. Genesys Cloud performs sentiment analysis on the transcript generated from the audio interaction. The collected knowledge provides valuable data about customer experiences, product and service reputation, and agent competency. For more information, see About sentiment analysis. 

Enhanced player on interaction detail page

Interaction overview, the player on the interaction detail page, is now updated for speech and text analytics features. Interaction overview incorporates numerous features that enable supervisors and agents to play back and listen to an interaction, and enables supervisors to discover unusual interaction dynamics, underlying issues with products and services, customer sentiment, and agent productivity. For more information, see About the interaction overview. 

Richer customer journey context for agents

Agents can now see a complete view of a customer’s web activity with your company, including their previous interactions as well as their current web visit. Agents can see in real-time when customers are assigned to segments, their progress toward achieving your business outcomes, and what they search for on your website. For more information, see Customer journey (Genesys Cloud).

Business hours scheduling for Predictive Engagement web chats 

Administrators can now define scheduled business hours to Predictive Engagement web chats to ensure that chats are only offered when agents are available. The Action Map Performance report now includes a count of web chats offered outside business hours. For more information, see Schedule groups. 

Change history log for Predictive Engagement

Administrators can now see the change history (create, update, delete) of Predictive Engagement segments, outcomes, and clickstream settings in the audit log viewer. For more information, see About the audit log viewer.
