  • Patent number: 7343406
    Abstract: A proactive call center which detects problems, resolves the problems, and then contacts the customers before customers initiate calls themselves. In the present invention, the workflow process is monitored to ensure that a transaction is completed without problems. If a problem occurs, a call center agent is notified of the problem. The call center agent can then take immediate steps to research the problem, fix the problem, or otherwise find alternative solutions to help ameliorate the problem. The call center agent then contacts the customer to explain the problem and what steps were taken to address the problem. By proactively taking steps to address problems as they occur rather than in response to customer complaints, businesses can maintain goodwill.

  • Patent number: 7010571
    Abstract: Systems and methods for collaborating over the Internet (or an intranet) in which two or more parties, such as a user and an agent, can share dynamic content generated by a web site server. Collaboration can be accomplished on live, dynamic pages without imposing a proxy server between user browsers and the web servers. Mechanisms prevent multiple submissions, and filters can be provided to selectively filter versions of a page for different users.

  • Patent number: 6748420
    Abstract: The system of the invention provides a collaboration adapter which can be integrated into a web server or a web/application server to allow multiple computer user participants to access a single shared session to an application in a collaborative manner. The system of the invention allows a participant to create a shared session and to associate a participant identity to the shared session as the shared session owner. From thereon, participants can join the shared session and submit requests for application response information to the web server containing the collaboration adapter. In cases where the application response information must be obtained from the application, the invention substitutes participant session identification information in an original participant request with shared session identification information to create an altered request and then forwards the altered request to the application.
