The grid view provides the followings:

  • grid of agents - where each agent is always in the same place for easy follow-up
  • conversation status and remote party number - Every 5 seconds the grid view updates and shows the conversation status of the agents. Agents with an ongoing conversation are marked with a red border and shows the number/address of the other party
  • thumbnail video - by moving the cursor over an agent's thumbnail, it will continuously refresh until the mouse cursor stays over it
  • initiate monitoring - click on the thumbnail to monitor the agent screen in large resolution

 

Monitoring the desktop of an agent

By clicking on any of the displayed agents in the Agent View, you can open a monitoring session, which shows a fullscreen view of the agent's desktop.

The current desktop screen of the agent is streamed into this window in high resolution and keeps refreshing until the view is closed by clicking on the shaded territory around the stream.

The two arrows on the left and right of the screen let you navigate between the agent's screens real-time.
