Call Silent issue for customer side, not at agent side.

0

Hello Team i have been using amazon pinpoint and connect to place the outbound campaign Calls in US and Canada. our instance is located in US-west-2 Oregon. When Campaign Call is placed , customer answers the Call and says Hello, after saying hello there is silence for 4-5 secs and then customer hears the welcome prompt, then Call is connected in 3-4 secs with agent and customer. Please help to fix why this silence issue is there when customer says hello and prior to agent is connected.

Call Placed by aws campaign-->customer answers the Call and says Hello--> 4-5 secs of silence-->customer hears the prompt->customer connected in 3 secs with agent.

How we can remove this silence ? any idea please i am okay with blind answers as well.

In order to reduce the time taken for the dialer to deliver the call to an available agent, the following best practices are recommended:

  • Ensure there are sufficient agents logged in to the queue.
  • Turn off Answering Machine Detection (AMD) in the campaign.
  • (If possible) Remove any “Play prompt” blocks from the contact flow prior to transferring the call to the queue.
  • Remove any “Play prompt” blocks from in the agent and customer whisper flow.
  • Enable Auto Answer setting on agent CCP.
  • (If possible) Minimize the geographical distance between the locations of the Amazon Connect instance of the agent and your customer. See additional documentation on agent and workstation requirements.
  • (If possible) While creating the segment file for Pinpoint, add the data that is required for routing logic and agent screen pop and avoid dips to Lambda functions to extract additional information prior to connecting to an agent.
  • To achieve lowest call connection latencies, use outbound campaigns to make hundreds of thousands of continuous calls (e.g., to mimic your production environment). Latencies will be relatively higher when making a handful of campaign calls (e.g., when testing).
