🔷 Why is this relevant for your business?
Your service staff save valuable time, avoid transcription errors, and can focus fully on the conversation—Copilot automatically documents everything in the background.

Next best action: Copilot suggests suitable macros

What's new?
Based on previous interactions, Copilot analyzes the context of the case and suggests appropriate macros or follow-up actions at the right moment.

🔷 Why is this relevant for your business?
Fewer clicks, fewer searches—faster case processing. This allows you to achieve faster response times and consistent service experiences.

Smart Routing in Microsoft Teams Voice

What's new?
The Teams channel now recognizes the caller's intent and automatically routes the call to the appropriate person or group—based on availability and skill matching.

🔷 Why is this relevant for your business?
Wait times are reduced, and so is customer frustration. AI-driven call routing ensures that inquiries reach the right person more quickly.

AI-based routing with SLA control

What's new?
Unified Routing now uses AI-based rules to automatically assign cases—taking into account SLA targets, skills, and priorities.

Shift Scheduling with AI – Based on Volume and Skills

With the help of RSO (Resource Scheduling Optimization), shifts can be intelligently planned based on historical volumes, qualifications, and availability.

🔷 Why is this relevant for your business?
You reduce manual planning efforts and create fairer schedules—without Excel, without relying on gut feelings, directly within the system.

Improved multi-session view for agents

What's new?
The agent interface has been enhanced: improved keyboard shortcuts, case switching without loading times, and greater clarity thanks to visual alerts.

🔷 Why is this relevant for your business?
