Abstract: According to embodiments of the present invention, various computer implemented methods are provided for dynamically delivering user-customized instances of computing environments to contact center agents. User input collected using automated interaction techniques is received in a contact center. The collected information is used to select or determine instances of computing environments that best approximate the particular environment for which support is being requested. Once identified, an instance of the computing environment is sent to a workstation of an available agent and a direct communication session is brokered between the agent and the requesting user. According to various embodiments, the method may include dynamically generating the instance as a virtual machine from a server in the contact center or otherwise communicatively coupled to the workstation of the agent. Alternately, the method may include distributing pre-generated instances of a virtual machine.
