Telephony Idea - Call to register using KooKoo

Use Case:
Customers can call to register with a website. Websites publish a phone number which users can call to register.

Solution:
1.Publish phone number for the website.
2.When the customer calls the KooKoo number, KooKoo passes the caller id in the "cid" parameter.
3.Check if it is a first time caller. If yes, generate a random password and send it as an SMS to the user.
4.User can immediately login and change his settings like updating password, adding email id etc.

Advantages:

Automatic verification of users happens as they provide the phone number.

Faster registration as users just make a call rather than going through captchas, registration forms etc

Disadvantages:

Obviously, as this is a new process there can be an unexpected loophole. This is just an idea and still has to be validated.

Who is it useful for:
Almost all eCommerce sites who need a registration for order tracking etc or for one time registrations, this might be a better option as it is faster.

Integrating Arborjs with Angular to create a live calls dashboard

Arborjs is a cool graph visualization library. Angular is one of the best JavaScript frameworks and we have been using Angular in a lot of our front end development. When you handle millions of calls, proper visualization becomes very important. Without proper visualization, you can get lost in the mountains of data. So we spend a lot of time to come up with good visualizations to represent the data. Since we loved the cool way in which Arbor represented graph data, we could not wait to hook it up with Angular. Because of Angular's two way data binding, when you hook up Angularjs with Arbor.js you can get a dynamically updated visualization of graph data with cool animations. To give back to the community, we have put up the code online at Github . Basically we have created an Angularjs directive for Arborjs. Please feel free to fork the code and add extensions and use it for your own visualizations. The code is self explanatory with comments inline. Best way to get s

In this blog, I will be talking about my experiences in trying to build a cloud telephony platform , KooKoo . Along the way I will also be talking about different design choices I made, good programming practices and the IVR domain in general. For technoratti: NNFJW8EW86C3

KooKoo Contact Center integration with WhatsApp

WhatsApp announced the launch of their business API yesterday. This is a big deal. A lot of businesses have been asking for WhatsApp integration and now its a possibility. Twilio has already launched an integration . Won't be long before we see a lot more integrations pop up. The most obvious use case is for support chat bots, alerts and reminders. But we at Ozonetel believe one other use case will become the dominant use case, WhatsApp as a support channel with human agents. We believe WhatsApp will become a dominant channel in contact centers world wide. There are multiple reasons for this: WhatsApp is ubiquitous. Everyone has the app. WhatsApp interface is well known to all customers. It is feature rich. You can share audio, video, location etc in the app itself. You can integrate bots for repetitive tasks. Being the leaders in cloud contact center solutions, we at Ozonetel knew that we had to integrate with the WhatsApp channel as early as possible.
