Interact

Enterprise Contact Center This App must be licensed separately per user or service. For more details, head to Nimbus Features.

 

Luware Interact is a solution that incorporates instant messaging (chat), audio, and video calls directly into a website. Configured by your choice customers interact with your Teams directly – either via service front, or with directly visible single users. From a customer perspective, the Interact UI is very simple to use, directly embedded as a code snippet (widget) on a website. 

The customer engages on a simple setup process and starts talking directly to any Nimbus user within their MS Teams client, without any prior plugin or software installation required on Customer side.

By extending your configuration with Interact Domain Templates (CORS), you can define where Interact widgets are allowed to be used and restrict access this way so that no external websites can "redirect" traffic to your services.

🔍First Setup: Refer to Use Case - Setting Up Interact for a step-by-step guide on how to set up Interact for your users and services.

 

INC Interact Azure Billing

AZURE BILLING

The usage of Interact will cause additional monthly ACS (Azure Communication Services) costs depending on modality (IM/AV) used. These cost are determined by Microsoft. Also see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/concepts/pricing

  • Before enabling additional modality features for your services, get in touch with your Luware Customer Success specialist to discuss terms, usage scenarios, and necessary setup procedures.
  • Please note that Nimbus and Interact support does not cover pricing discussions or make recommendations based on the Microsoft Azure infrastructure.
 

Overview

Interact can be licensed for users and services. While Interact for users enables customers to get in touch directly with a specific agent by handing over the task directly to the agent, Interact for services handles incoming tasks in a similar fashion as inbound calls are handled. The customer sees the service's name in the Interact widget in the latter case.

Supported Modalities

Interact currently supports the following modalities, bi-directional and without any further browser installation requirements:

Audio/Video & Screen sharing

Audio/Video (+ Screen sharing). Customers interact via an Interact widget on your website where they can configure their headset, webcam, and screen sharing options.

A Nimbus user is accepting the call and sharing their screen directly with the customer

🔍 The Video modality is exclusive to Interact. Refer to Audio/Video for preconditions and requirements. The Use Case - Setting Up Interact is the basic condition for getting A/V calls established.

Instant Messaging

Instant Messaging (Chat) is handled either directly to a user (agent) OR handled according to a service's Instant Message Workflow. In either case, customers interact via an Interact widget on your website where they can provide a name, an email address, and an initial message, and start chatting.

🔍 Refer to Instant Messaging for preconditions and requirements and to Use Case - Setting Up Instant Messaging on a step-by-step guide on how to configure Instant Messaging for the use with Interact.

  • Nimbus Interact is a separately licensed Nimbus Feature and can be enabled individually for Users and Services. Please get in touch with Customer Success partner as prior setup is required limitations may apply.
  • You can enable and configure either modality individually per Interact User Settings and Interact Service Settings, either opting to route incoming modalities via a service queue or directly to the Teams users themselves.
  • The Interact configuration is done completely within the Administration. Also refer to Use Case - Setting up Interact for detailed steps.
  • Customers from outside will directly interact with Nimbus users and services via website widget. The website whitelist and the embed code are configured via Interact Domain Templates (CORS).
