Call Journey

Prev Next

Call Journey is a record of every action, a call takes from the moment it accesses the Dialpad software to the moment it ends. You’ll be able to see how each call entered Dialpad, and how it routed to different groups or individuals over the call’s lifetime.

It provides insight into missed calls and helps minimize them, ensuring your customers consistently reach a representative and are routed to the right person. Call Journey can also uncover opportunities to improve your system configuration, setting up your customers — and business — for success.

Let's take a look at how to use Call Journey. 

Who can use this

Call Journey is available to all Dialpad Connect, Dialpad Sell, and Dialpad Support customers on Pro and Enterprise plans.

Using Call Journey

The Call Journey shows how the call entered your Dialpad system, and there are 2 ways you can access your Call Journey.

From the Conversation History

To access the Call Journey from your Conversation History, go to your Dialpad Admin portal

  1. Select Conversation History

  2. Navigate to any call

  3. Select Options (that's the 3 vertical dots)

  4. Select Call Journey

From the in-app Call summary

To view the Call Journey from the Call Summary within the Dialpad App:

  1. Go to the conversation

  2. In the Call summary, select More actions > Show call journey

A pop-up will open showing the call events that took place, the routing steps, and ultimately how the call ended.

Some of these events and routing steps include:

  • Navigating through an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) menu

  • Being transferred to another person, department, or Contact Center

  • Being routed by the geographic router or other automated systems

  • Being sent to voicemail

  • Calls being parked

  • Calls being rung/missed/connected/answered

  • … and more!

Term

Definition

New Calls

When a call transfers to a new user or group (Contact Center or Department).
This includes manual transfers, IVR transfers, and other routing methods.

Call Backs

Two separate calls linked with the same number. The first call is typically when a customer calls a Contact Center and requests a callback. The second call is when the Contact Center agent called the customer back.
In the Call Journey window, you'll see the link between the two calls.
