Email Queuing
Email Queuing allows your contact centre to treat emails in the same way as they treat phone calls, emails are queued, then delivered to the agent once they are available to deal with them. If the agent takes too long to respond to the email, the email will be delivered to the next available agent, emails are never allowed to disappear into the agent's overfull inboxes.
Once the agent has answered the email, the email will not be taken back from them, agents can be configured to handle as many concurrent queue emails as you require, and you can require wrap up information to be entered upon deletion of email, this information can also be reported on.
