Call Monitoring, Coaching & Intervention Tools

This guide explains how admins can use call monitoring tools to support agents live and enhance customer interactions

Updated over a week ago

Accessing Coaching Tools

  1. Login to the Dialer – On the homepage, you will see all the agents in your agency and their statuses.

  2. Action Options – In the action column for each agent, you’ll find two main options:

    • Listen (with Whisper or Barge modes)

    • Chat (in-dialer written messages)


Features & Behavior

1. Whisper Mode

  • Function: Admins can speak directly to the agent without the customer hearing.

  • Recording Impact: Whispered audio is not recorded, preserving the privacy of coaching.

  • Best Use: Discreet coaching and live guidance without interrupting the customer experience.


2. Barge Mode

  • Function: Admins join the conversation as active participants. Both the agent and the customer can hear the admin.

  • Recording Impact: The admin’s voice is recorded along with the rest of the call.

  • Best Use: Direct intervention when necessary, such as compliance issues, escalations, or training opportunities.


3. Chat Option

  • Function: Admins can click the chat icon to send messages directly to the agent in the dialer.

  • Flexibility:

    • Chat can be used instead of joining the call to provide coaching.

    • Admins can also listen to the call and chat simultaneously if they believe multiple voices may confuse the agent.

  • Best Use: Written coaching, sharing quick reminders, or discreetly supporting agents when verbal input isn’t ideal.


📌 Note:

  • Use Whisper for discreet coaching without impacting the call recording.

  • Use Barge for real-time intervention when you need to be actively heard.

  • Use Chat for written support that avoids disrupting the conversation flow
