Figure 66.1 Oracle Sales Cloud CTI connector.

VoIPstudio Oracle Sales Cloud connector allows for Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) of CRM activities which greatly improves productivity and customer experience.

The connector can be used for both outbound (click to call) and inbound connections (incoming caller screening). The two scenarios are described below:

1) Outbound “click to call” connections to PSTN (Traditional Telephony Network) from within Oracle Sales Cloud environment involves clicking telephone number link in the user interface which triggers VoIPstudio network to place a call to SIP endpoint (IP Phone or Softphone) registered on the user account. As soon as this call is answered it is being transferred to the number clicked.

2) Incoming calls received from PSTN (Traditional Telephony Network) are generating real time notifications about call state (Ringing, Connected, On Hold, Disconnected) which can be handled in Oracle Sales Cloud CTI widget embedded in user interface.

In both scenarios described above once the call is established users can control call state using Oracle Sales Cloud CTI widget. Ongoing connections can be Transferred to a different PBX user or external number or Disconnected.
