Webex Contact Center

OutdialCall

The OutdialCall component enables agents to make outbound calls directly from the contact center interface.

The OutdialCall component provides a user interface for agents to initiate outbound calls to customers or other parties. This component is essential for:

  • Proactive customer outreach
  • Return calls to customers
  • Callback campaigns
  • Outbound sales or service calls
