An end-user device operable in a retail store records a voice conversation held in the retail store. The recording is transmitted to a server for comparing it to recordings of other conversations from a plurality of other retail stores. The server makes a recommendation based on the comparing. Embodiments of the invention are also directed to an analytics system that collects real-time metrics data for various virtual or physical retail stores associated with a plurality of contact centers. The system performs real-time analytics of the collected metrics data for identifying a product or service. The processor modifies, based on the real-time analytics, a prior service or product to be offered by a particular retail store, with the identified service or product. The processor pushes the modified service or product for display on the end-user device use in the particular retail store.

System for providing dynamic recommendations based on interactions in retail stores

A method and apparatus are disclosed of transmitting live event notification information to a user device. One example method may include retrieving event user preference information from an event user database based on prestored user preferences. The method may also include transmitting an initial event notification message to an end user communication device based on the event user preference information to notify the end user of an upcoming event and receiving a response message from the end user communication device indicating a current availability of the end user. The user device may receive notification information via more than one communication channel and respond in a number of different ways.

Performing automated event services to registered end users

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a system and method for collecting and analyzing data from a plurality of contact center tenants. A processor collects from a plurality of source devices over a data communication network, real-time metrics data for a plurality of contact centers. The real-time metrics data relates to a plurality of contact center factors. The processor stores the collected real-time metrics data in the data store, and generates benchmark data based on the collected real-time metrics data. The processor determines, for a particular contact center of the plurality of contact centers, performance of the contact center relative to the benchmark data. The processor further outputs a recommendation based on the comparison.

Multi-tenant based analytics for contact centers

System and method for providing dynamic recommendations based on interactions in retail stores

A system and method for aggregating a customer's anonymous online experience and associating it to the customer once the customer is known. A server monitors and aggregates data on anonymous interactions between a customer and a website. The collected data is stored in a data store in association with a code. The server detects occurrence of a trigger event as the data is collected, and the code is provided to the customer in response to detecting the trigger event. When the customer presents the code at the retail store, a retail store device sends a message including the code to the server. The retail store device also provides other identification information of the customer. The server may then associate the anonymous data to customer based on the identification information.

System and method for bridging online customer experience

The illustrative embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for conducting transactions with a customer using text messages. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a first text message from a mobile communication device associated with a customer. The first text message includes a request from the customer to receive one or more text messages from a vendor. The method also includes adding the customer to a set of consenting customers in a customer database in response to receiving the first text message. The set of consenting customer including customers that consent to receiving text messages from the vendor. The method also includes sending a second text message to the mobile communication device. The second text message is associated with a service offered by the vendor.

Systems and methods for conducting transactions with a customer using text messages

An agent-assisted and directed web-channel customer care apparatus, method, and computer program is provided to receive, from a first device, an inbound message via an inbound messaging channel and create a web session utilizing a web session server. Session identification is received from the web session server and a unique identifier is transmitted to the first device in order for a second device to connect to an agent device via a web session. Communications is simultaneously maintained with the first and second device via the inbound messaging channel and the web session.

Agent-assisted and directed web-channel customer care apparatus, method, and computer program

Operations included may provide receiving event registration messages from at least a portion of end users to register the end users for an event and storing the event registration messages in a registration list file. Establishing a connection for each of the portion of the plurality of end users via an interactive voice response (IVR) application may also occur. The IVR application is then dropped and the connection is maintained via a port on a network element to transfer the event data from the network element to the portion of the registered end users.
