Add simultaneous calling
AnsweredHi team,
I would like to suggest adding simultaneous calling af a feature in talk, so the caller rings to every available agent in a group at the same time for the entire queue time that is set.
We've noticed a large decrease in average waiting time for our customers who call us since we implemented this some months ago.
This could be the thing that keeps us from using Talk/Voice and if we feel this way other interested companies might feel the same way.

Hello,
Thanks for your question. Broadcast mode is currently on the roadmap for 2024 development.
In the meantime, in 2023 we are working on queues with omnichannel routing that would enable calls to be routed to multiple groups in the event the primary group can't answer the call, decreasing the average wait time. That capability combined with the ability to set skills to answer a specific set of questions will further decrease average wait time.
Thanks,
Sean

Hi Sean,
Thanks for the reply I will look forward to hearing about Broadcast mode.
Also thanks for the suggestion, we uinfortunatly do not have enough agents to be able to do omnichannel. -
Hi,
Hope you are well. We encourage you to consider moving to Omnichannel because routing improvements will continue to come via that feature. Lastly, to take advantage of Omnichannel routing, the number of agents is not a factor. See here for more info.
p.s., it's free.
