[cisco-voip] [External] IPCC best practice

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Not much more to add here, except +1 for calling in IPCC. :) you’d have gotten +2 if you called it CRA. ;)

But, seriously, you have to weigh the pros and cons of injecting a point of failure vs ease of administration.

My thought process is, can you build automatic recovery? Or easily understood manual backup.

And is the design something you can easily hand off to someone?

Lots of things to consider.

We still use Call Handlers. We have fewer resources who can handle script editing and somewhat frequent requests to change hours and such that we need the regular techs to be able to handle.

Definitely a preference thing.

Agreed with TIm, it's just simpler to involve less systems if you can.  With 12.0 UCCX and higher, the calendar function is a nice addition, no more XML files for schedules.

It seems to me that there's not a "best practice" label for most scenarios. When I started with UCCX, we went to a call handler first to provide us with an easy way to provide a schedule, and a familiar way for the customer to record a greeting. Later, we ended up building the schedule into our script and directing calls to the trigger. That's my preference, just to involve less systems.

Hello, I just have a quick question.
When setting up a call center for a SMB, Is it best practice to have the main number go to a unity call handler 1st, with caller input going to uccx triggers, or is it considered best practice to have the main number go right to CCX?  I have seen both ways.

Thank you.
