Symposium Express Call Centre
Overview
Symposium Express Call Centre (SECC) delivers sophisticated, skill-based call routing and management
reporting to customer care centres with up to 150 active agents. Leveraging the rich functionality of the
higher-capacity Symposium Call Centre Server, Symposium Express Call Centre provides an entry-level,
departmental-level or small to medium enterprise customer care centre application. Customers can
benefit from sophisticated functionality usually only provided by more complex systems.
Customer Profile
• Small to Medium Enterprises - formal call centres
• Large Enterprises - department contact centres
such as helpdesks, sales desks, customer service
centres; corporate branch offices
• Emerging Call Centre markets - any business or
organisation where five or more people make
frequent use of the phone for incoming calls;
business or organisations that may currently use
hunt groups and call pickup and require
more control

contact centre but require a simplistic
call centre system
