What our customers say

Bob Barker logo

“The product is easy to use, easy to troubleshoot, and easy to administer. And when in doubt, easy to contact customer service on!”

- Michelle Corbett, Cybersecurity Specialist at Bob Barker

Magnetek logo

“We're going from an environment where the phone would ring, and everyone would look around to see if someone was going to answer it, to having the capabilities and visibility that our supervisor and tier 2 team can watch and step in and help as needed.”

- Crystal Goodwill, Administrative Assistant for Aftermarket Services at Magnetek

Connect with your customers the way they want

Reach customers where it is most convenient, whether through voice, web chat, email, social media, chatbots, or other means.

As new communication channels are added to your organization, agents will continue to use the same tools they are familiar with, reducing the training gap to learn new software.

ice Contact Center with Microsoft Teams capabilities

Actionable alerts in Microsoft Teams channel

ice Contact Center can present actionable alerts from iceMonitor to a Microsoft Teams channel. Supervisors and users can quickly react to the alerts within Microsoft Teams, efficiently resolving issues.


Schedule and publish reports directly to a Microsoft Teams channel

Users can schedule and publish ice reports to a Microsoft Teams channel for immediate viewing and discussion. Set up the reports to be sent to Microsoft Teams within iceReporting the same way you would to any email address.


iceManager within Microsoft Teams

Embed the iceManager suite as a tab within Microsoft Teams to retain all your contact center features within one application. Access monitoring tools, reports, recordings, and evaluations.


Direct Connect for users

Direct Connect gives organizations an alternative to Microsoft Teams federation. It uses Microsoft Teams Direct Routing to enable calls to be routed to Teams-based agents using a managed SBC network. With faster call setup times than federation, ice Contact Center allows agents to handle all interactions directly in the Microsoft Teams client of their choice.


Agent interfaces

ice Contact Center offers 3 interfaces to accommodate your personalized requirements – a thin stand-alone toolbar, a web version, and integrated within Microsoft Teams. 

Microsoft Teams contact center certified - Extend model

Certified-Microsoft-Teams-Solution-ComputerTalk

ComputerTalk is one of Microsoft's first partners to have completed the Microsoft Teams Connected Contact Center Certification Program.

Microsoft enables 3 models of integration with Microsoft Teams. ComputerTalk integrates with Microsoft Teams using the Extend model.

Our contact center agents and SMEs can handle calls, IMs, and emails through the Microsoft Teams client while visibility into the interactions is retained for recording, monitoring, and reporting.

Integrate 3rd party applications for personalized customer experiences

Provide personalized customer experiences while optimizing agent efficiencies with a CRM or ticketing integration. Automatically populate your application with interaction data and screen pop the information to the agent. This enables agents to provide quick and accurate customer service.
