Agent greeting settings

The Agent Greeting feature enables agents to record messages (as .wav files) that play automatically to callers when the agent answers an inbound ACD call. The greeting can provide a consistent experience for each caller and free the agent from having to repeat the same introductory phrase for every call.

Ignite allows the agents to record multiple agent greetings. These greetings can then be assigned to all queues as the default agent greeting or assigned to specific queues to allow for a more custom experience.

The agent greeting is a two-way playback, where both the call and the agent hear the recording.

  2. Click the Magnifying Glass button under Active Greeting
  3. Search for and select the agent greeting you wish to set as default.
  4. Click Set as default greeting button next to the selected agent greeting.
  5. Click OK to confirm your selection.
Note: All queues that do not have a specific agent greeting will be updated to show the newly selected default greeting, visible with the (Default Greeting) as part of the name.
