Benefits of Call Confirmation

This feature is fantastic if you use call duration-based goals and have a 3rd Party welcome message and/or queue. Ordinarily when a caller reaches a welcome message or queue which we don't host, the timer starts on the connectivity of the call in relation to the duration-based call goals, thus potentially skewing the stats by insinuating that callers were connected to an operator longer than they may have actually been.

By using this feature, the timer on the connectivity of the call in relation to time-based call goals (e.g. the Qualified Call goal) only starts from when the caller has made it through the queue/welcome message and the operator presses '1' on their phone handset to accept the call.
