CRM Agents can escalate chat and co-browse sessions to include video or voice-only calls from within Microsoft Dynamics 365.
- There is no need for downloads or plug-ins.
- Agents start calls with consumers as one-way or two-way calls, as they require.
- See: Platform and browser support.
Use Case
If an agent is engaged in a text chat or co-browse session with a consumer, there may be times when it would be beneficial to escalate the engagement to a voice and video conversation. Enabling the agent and consumer to open a voice and video window to see and talk to each other can enhance communication, and may help to resolve an issue more quickly.
For details of how an agent escalates to Voice and Video, see: Agent Voice and Video Escalation
