Favorite Predefined Content - Self-Service

We are delighted to introduce a powerful enhancement to our platform to address the challenges faced by agents handling diverse skills, lines of business, and use cases. Many of you accumulate numerous pieces of PDC (Pre-Defined Content) in your accounts, making efficient navigation a real struggle.

Key Challenge

Agents often find themselves scrolling through lengthy lists of PDC, even with categorization, causing frustration and decreased efficiency.

The Solution

We are thrilled to introduce the 'Favorite Predefined Content' feature to streamline this process and enhance agent productivity.

Key Highlights

    • Agents can now designate specific PDC as 'Favorites'
    • Create a personalized category for commonly used content, allowing for quick and easy access.
    • Significantly reduces the time spent searching for the right PDC.
    • Optimizes agent interaction with Predefined Content, enhancing overall efficiency.
    • Streamlining workflows leads to operational cost reductions.
    • Agents can focus more on meaningful interactions, ultimately driving down operational costs.

Security

Features

Please note this is relevant to Advanced Login only

When Local Login Policies are enabled, LivePerson's login service will authenticate your users, and the login and password policies can be configured in this section according to your organization's security requirements. However, as of next week, if you toggle off this feature (assuming you have at least one SSO connection enabled), your Local Login will be deactivated. In such cases, users' login and password policies will no longer be managed and enforced by LivePerson, and all login flows will depend on your chosen SSO Identity Provider. Consequently, the "change user password" option will be unavailable under the User Management module.
