You think your organization (or your customer) will move contact center to the cloud in the next

0-6 month?

Introduction

© 2023 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential
But … what do you think the most challenging item in
technology migration?

Organization Challenges

© 2023 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential
Challenges
• Past investment
• How to run business around current platform
• Resistance to changes
• (Harvard business review https://hbr.org/2012/09/ten-reasons-people-resist-chang.html )
• Using a “Showcase Site” internally helps to bring the technology into the business, but in a way that
does not directly impact customer service or the business
• This allows internal users to become comfortable with the technology first, then they can see the
power of the new solution, firsthand

• Assess your current contact center, see what it does well and
what needs improving to meet the required business outcomes

• IT will need to be more engage with the business and go


beyond setting up infrastructure

• Technology should be viewed to enable business strategic


goals/business outcomes

• Working together to build a roadmap for the future of your


contact center to meet the desired business outcomes

• Translate the roadmap into contact center capabilities

Agent Reskilling efe
R
WebexCC now supports agent reskilling
Requirements:
- Feature flag wxcc_agent_reskilling must be enabled

How it works:
Agents have assigned skill profiles either by:
A. Directly assigned to the agent user profile
B. Assigned to the team and inherited by agents
logging into that team

Changing a skill profile either to the directly assigned


agent or to the team will effectively reskill the agent in
real-time.
- However, changing a Team skill profile will not
impact an agent who has a skill profile directly
assigned

Caveat: Reporting is lagging behind this change for the moment

© 2023 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential
ce
ren
Agent Reskilling efe
R
Example 1
• If a skill profile is added to an agent (profile B), that profile supersedes any team
based profile (profile A) and the agent acquires the skills from profile B.

• If a profile is changed on a team, but the agent has a profile, no change occurs

• If a skill profile is changed on a team (A → B), the skills will be updated for any
agent on this team if the agent has no profile of their own.

Example 2

• If a skill within a profile is changed, (French is added to skill profile A), this will
update any agent who has this profile (either from team or directly on the user).

• If a skill profile is changed directly on an agent (skill profile A → skill profile B),
the skills would be updated on this agent.

• If a skill profile directly set on an agent is removed (profile A), and a profile exists
on the team (profile B), the skills from the team profile will be set on the agent.
If there is no skill profile on the team, no skills will be set on the agent.

Audio recordings – things to know
Audio Recording

When QM is connected to Cisco Webex Contact Center, contacts are created and recorded in natively on Webex Contact
Center.

To import a contact, Webex WFO first imports contact metadata through an API request. Then, it imports the audio recording
through another API request, matches the audio recording with the contact metadata, and associates the contact with the
agent who handled it.

When multiple agents handle a contact in Webex Contact Center (for example, when one agent transfers the contact to
another agent), Webex WFO uses metadata to segment the contact into a matching number of contacts that it then
associates with the individual agents involved.

Specifically, Webex WFO determines when agents were active on the call through Start and End timestamps and segments
the contact accordingly. Each resulting contact in Webex WFO has its own metadata and audio recording.

NOTE: It can take up to two hours for Webex Contact Center to make a contact available to Webex WFO.

Two recording Options:

by a given queue. This setting is useful for customers
who require 100% recording for compliance purposes.

2. Percentage call recording enables customers to record a


subset of their calls. This allows administrators to spot check
call quality across the enterprise or perform targeted quality
monitoring of certain agents, teams, or call center sites.
Calls to be recorded can be:
- Selected randomly by the system on a
percentage basis
- Scheduled by time and/or day
- Based upon criteria such as the site, team, or
agent to whom the call is routed

Recording Methods

© 2023 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential
Three Recording Methods
1. Desktop recording is a software recording service executed on the recorded user's PC.

2. Network-based recording uses a recording server that receives telephony packets directed to it from the built-in
bridge on the recorded user's IP phone under the direction of Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) and
controlled by the recording workflow on the recording server processing the user's CTI events.

3. Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE) gateway recording includes media forking from CUBE to a record server,
which then encrypts and uploads into the call recording and quality management system per the user’s workflow
configuration.

For all call recording types, transactions of interest are selected and processed if they meet established business
criteria configured

Audio recordings – things to know
Audio Recording

When QM is connected to Cisco Webex Contact Center, contacts are created and recorded in natively on Webex Contact
Center.

To import a contact, Webex WFO first imports contact metadata through an API request. Then, it imports the audio recording
through another API request, matches the audio recording with the contact metadata, and associates the contact with the
agent who handled it.

When multiple agents handle a contact in Webex Contact Center (for example, when one agent transfers the contact to
another agent), Webex WFO uses metadata to segment the contact into a matching number of contacts that it then
associates with the individual agents involved.

Specifically, Webex WFO determines when agents were active on the call through Start and End timestamps and segments
the contact accordingly. Each resulting contact in Webex WFO has its own metadata and audio recording.

NOTE: It can take up to two hours for Webex Contact Center to make a contact available to Webex WFO.

Net New Deployment

Full Data Migration

Net New Deployment
NET NEW DEPLOYMENT
A fresh installation of Webex WFO is built in parallel to the existing Cisco WFO and a
cutover is planned from the existing production system, leaving that as a search-and-
play archival system.
This option is the most seamless and economical option
ALL migrations will begin with a new deployment on the cloud
WFO will be configured per the tenant requirements

***In all cases, it is necessary to synch the new deployment with the existing deployment

Partial or full system migration
A partial or full system migration occurs when a full installation of Cisco Webex WFO is built and you
want to retain some or all of the configuration data, media, and historical data that is in the existing
system.
The benefit to this approach is the majority of data from your old system will be on a single
platform. The drawbacks of this approach is the timeline for this method. Consider the timing and
economics of these migrations – which is often greater than a net new development.
Pricing – Migration
Call Recording and QM Costs
• Pricing will include Base Migration Service with an additional charge per million Contact Records
• The number of CCR’s can be determined by running the following query against their database:
select count(*) from ccr where audioUploadState = 2

Partial Data Migration
PARTIAL MIGRATION
A partial migration occurs when a full installation of Webex WFO is built and you want to
retain some of the configuration data and historical data that is in the existing system.
The benefits to this approach is the ability to leverage historical data, while minimizing
costs and timeline.

Full Data Migration – not recommended
FULL MIGRATION
A full migration occurs when an installation of Webex WFO is built and you want to retain
ALL of the configuration data, media, and historical data that is in the existing system.
Most data from your Cisco WFO system will be on a single platform, but time and costs
are considerably higher
