Computer-Telephony Integration (CTI)

SST's telephony division has provided a solution for CTI (Computer-Telephony Integration), or sometimes simply "Computer Telephony". Computer Telephony is the use of computers to manage telephone calls.The term is used in describing the computerised services of call center, such as those that direct your phone call to the right department at a business you're calling.It's also sometimes used to describe the ability to use your personal computer to initiate and manage phone calls (in which case you can think of your computer as your personal call center).

CTI applications provide the ability to do one or more of the following:

  • Authenticate callers.Using one of several standard methods, the telephone number of the caller can be screened against a database.
  • Recognize a voice, either for authentication or for message forwarding.
  • Using live, recorded voice, or touch-tone entered input, determine how to process a call (for example, by forwarding it to the appropriate person or department).
  • Provide interactive voice response (IVR) to callers.
  • Match the number of a caller with a customer record and display it for reference when talking to the caller.
  • Manage voice or video conferences.
  • Collect and display pending live calls or messages that have been left by callers.
  • Receive fax messages and route them to appropriate fax machines.
  • For outbound calling such as telemarketing, predial callers etc.
  • Based on call input, initiate a smart agent application to provide help with the caller’s request.
