Newfies-Dialer v2 Released

Postby jroper » Wed Mar 20, 2013 8:56 am

This latest release of Newfies-Dialer adds some of the the following enhancements, from improvements to the survey functionality through to brand new features such as Answering Machine Detection.

Survey Templates

The survey has been enhanced to easily allow repetitive surveys and maintain consistent reporting. A survey template is created, and when it is attached to a campaign, a copy is made of the survey, and all reports pertaining to that campaign are correctly linked.

Enhancements to the survey branching, logic and capabilities :

    Retry logic to keep calling a contact until the survey is completed.
    Completion status to denote a survey has been fully completed.
    Branching supports invalid input.Support branching on timeout on a per node basis.
    Capture entries with X digits (i.e. capture phone-number).
    Display calls completed in reporting modules and dashboard.Include variables in Text to Speech.

Answering Machine Detection

The commercial AMD module allows Newfies-Dialer to detect whether the contact answering the phone is a real person answering the call or whether it is a voicemail message.

If the AMD module detects voicemail, then it will listen for the “record-your-message-now” beep and play the message to be left on the contact’s voicemail when recording starts.

Further information about this module can be found at http://www.newfies-dialer.org/add-ons/voicemail-detection/

Other Enhancements

    Deployment – Newfies-Dialer platform deployed with Nginx, Gunicorn, Supervisord and Postgresql for the best possible performance.
