Meanwhile, supervisors can create agent assignments, monitor agent calls via a dashboard, and access real-time analytics inside of GoToConnect. GoToConnect Support Center is now available in the U.S., the U.K., Germany, Ireland, Australia, Brazil, and Mexico, with additional international availability to soon follow. Pricing starts at $29.95 per agent/per month, plus the cost of GoToConnect.

Additionally, supervisors can evaluate agents’ web chat interactions for real-time insight. As part of this announcement, the company also announced Lifesize Connect, which allows users to host and join meetings, including Teams, Webex, Google Meet, Cisco, and others, with their Lifesize Icon 300, Icon 500, or Icon 700 room systems and laptop, Lifesize said.
