MINNEAPOLIS/EWORLDWIRE/April 15, 2005 --- Revation Systems, Inc., a leading provider of advanced applications for presence and instant communications today announced the availability of version 2.0 of LinkLive solutions suite. LinkLive v2.0 enhances the industry leading instant messaging solution for marketing, sales and service centers. This patent pending technology includes new features for priority routing to agents in contact centers, integration with PBX systems, telephony call control, secure offline email, LDAP and active directory support, client SDK and event launcher for screen pops in eBusiness applications.
"The new features of LinkLive have made presence and instant messaging an integral part of our business," said Doug Postel, President of MTCSystems. "We have fully integrated LinkLive into our website, email and Nortel BCM switch so we can support our customers and business partners with real-time help. We can't imagine running our business without it."
LinkLive integrates seamlessly into a blended contact center environment and enables customers to provide real-time service and support to their websites. By embedding Revation Presence Buttons on individual pages within a company's website, customers know when specific groups or individuals are available to support them. Calls can be routed to individual agents based on skills or other priority levels determined by the Contact Center manager. Complete utilization statistics are included so that staffing decisions can be more effectively made.
"We have turned our LinkLive application into a competitive differentiator by providing direct access to specific support personnel," Postel added. "This has significantly increased the close rate of our maintenance and support agreements with our customers."
Moreover, LinkLive v2.0 enables customers to fully integrate into its eBusiness applications with an open HTML interface. LDAP/active directory is supported so that the existing corporate directory and authentication schemes can be leveraged. With custom integration, screen pops enabled by the LinkLive Event Launcher allow contact center agents to view caller ID, answer the phone, click to dial or pull customer contact information from a CRM system all from the Revation Client application. A client SDK is also available so that customers and their integrators can develop custom instant communications applications based on presence.
"LinkLive has really advanced nicely with this release," said Perry Price, CEO of Revation Systems. "We can now presence and instant communications enable virtually any eBusiness application in the industry requiring a blended media contact center."
