Frequently Asked Questions
Why should we have a dedicated client when we can have many Finesse gadgets
Agent experience in the default Finesse interface has shortcomings; many agent and supervisor features are missing, browser interface occupies too much screen estate and there are many browser-related issues and limitations. Comstice Desktop Agent offers a compact yet feature rich and easy to use agent and supervisor experience which reduces the average handle time significantly.
Do we need to upgrade Desktop Agent every time we upgrade Cisco Finesse?
No. Comstice Desktop Agent app uses Cisco Finesse APIs and these APIs do not change in different Cisco Contact Center versions.
How does the rollout work?
Agents and supervisors download Comstice Desktop Agent and run it from their PCs. They use the company code to retrieve their license and company settings.
How does the upgrade work?
In case of an upgrade for resolving a defect or for new features, upgrade files can be hosted on an SFTP server and each client will download and run the updated version during initial launch. No uninstall/reinstall required.
Does Comstice Desktop Agent need Cisco Jabber?
There is no dependency for Cisco Jabber.
How Desktop Agent is licensed?
It is licensed per named agent. Same license can be used for the agents and the supervisors.
Do we need any additional server?
No. Desktop Agent is a client-only application. You do not need any additional server. It communicates directly with Cisco Finesse and Cisco CUCM. You can use Comstice Wallboard for Team Chat and Omnichannel features are run on the Omnichannel Server.
