ACE Knowledge

ACE Knowledge, the self learning knowledge base for questions and answers, is fully incorporated in ACE Agent and ACE Interact.

This is how it works

• The sets of questions and answers, i.e. the guides, are created per language in portals, via ACE Knowledge Administrator's view.
• Portals are available via the main menus in ACE Agent and ACE Interact. See ACE Agent main window and ACE Interact application overview.
• Automatic search, with proposed answers based on detected data, can be displayed in the agent applications for the contact types chosen in the client setting Automatic search in ACE Knowledge.
• Both the administrator and the agents can choose which ACE Knowledge portal to be used, in their respective client setting interfaces. See ACE Agent default settings. The selection of portal names are set in the ACE Admin ACE Knowledge window, described under Set up the access to a portal .
• To send a link to a guide, from ACE Interact to a chatting customer, you need an online widget, such as e.g. an inline interface corresponding to your portal. The portals, and their associated interfaces, are set up in the Administrator's view under Interfaces.

Automatic search

You can speed up conversations and give correct answers as you get suggestions of articles containing the costumer's question already when the contact is routed to you.

• For IVR and callback calls the search is based upon task type, menu choice and entrance.
• For chat the first question entered by the customers is used for search. If the field for a first question is empty, or not used in your chat client web integration, the task type is used.
• For email the first 512 characters of the email content is used for search. If the email content is empty, the task type is used.
