Please give a quick overview of your product feature request or feedback and note who in your org is affected by this issue [ex. agents, admins, customers, etc.]. (2-3 sentences)

1. there should be streamlines notifications when OCR is enabled in an account. Messages, voice, email, etc., should all work similarly and have the same mechanism for notifications. Having notfications ony with a the bell icon for email, only within the talk widget for talk, and only through the accept button for messaging leads to a disjointed experience. 

 

Ticket pop up notificaitons on the right hand side should also be color coded in some capacity, or give users a way to customize these notfiicaitons. 

What problem do you see this solving? (1-2 sentences) 

- More steamlined notification experience. Our agents feel the experience is a bit disjointed and has different queues to look out for. 

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool? What happened? How often does this problem occur and how does this impact your business? (3-4 sentences)

Every day

Are you currently using a workaround to solve this problem? (If yes, please explain) (1-2 sentences)

We are exploring building a custom app to do this, but it would be great to avoid needing to. 

What would be your ideal solution to this problem? How would it work or function? (1-2 sentences)

Not really sure - but some type of page where we have full customization over notifications would be nice.

+1 agree, clearly the product teams are working in silos and not coordinating their work with the current experience.

Hi @bobby11 

 

I agree we need to do a better job in having a consistent omnichannel approach to notifications. I have logged this in our internal roadmap list and will chat to our UX colleagues about it.
