How it works

The Voicemail Queues for Amazon Connect AWS Solutions Consulting Offer extends the Voicemail for Amazon Connect solution by providing authenticated access to voicemail using Amazon Cognito and integration with Amazon Connect by routing voicemails as native Amazon Connect contacts. This integration is performed via a number of AWS services.
The solution supports a number of queues out of the box as well as common canned reports generated by Amazon QuickSight and native Amazon Connect reporting capabilities.
During the implementation process, CloudHesive works with you to identify desired customizations, such as integrating with an enterprise directory, a security assertion markup language (SAML)-compliant identity provider, an enterprise data warehouse, or a business intelligence platform. CloudHesive also evaluates the deployment approach, including design of queues and routing profiles; customer experience; agent experience; trainer and supervisor experience; and training, testing, and go-live plans.
Further customization is supported during implementation by CloudHesive. This customization might include routing of voicemail contacts to other application programming interface (API)-capable destinations, including CRM systems like Salesforce, or accepting other types of contacts in addition to voicemail such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, SMS, Twilio email, email forms, and more.
CloudHesive offers post-go-live support of Amazon Connect, Voicemail for Amazon Connect, and the Voicemail Queues for Amazon Connect solution as a monthly managed services offering. Support includes access to our Amazon Connect integrated management interface powered by Centricity, cost management, and ongoing best practices reviews.
