Method and system for a scalable computer-telephony integration system
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of managing a call agent to call agent telephone call transfer, the method executed by one or more processors programmed to perform the method, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a second call agent located at a contact center from a first call agent located at the contact center in a computer-telephony integration system, a customer call from a customer and a customer call key stored in a database as a reference to customer call information for responding to the customer call, wherein the customer call key is transferred to the second call agent without transferring the customer call information;
using the customer call key to retrieve, via one or more processors, the customer information associated with the customer call key from the database; and
presenting, via the one or more processors, the customer call information on a display for use by the second call agent during the customer call with the customer to facilitate alleviating electronically transferring sensitive information between call agents and to reduce an amount of data electronically transferred between call agents during telephone call transfers.

Abstract
When an incoming call is received from a customer, various aspects may include obtaining customer call information from the customer and generating a customer call key, which may be stored as a reference to the customer call information in a contact center customer call information database. The call key may be transferred from a first call agent to a second call agent without transferring the customer call information. Then the second call agent may use the call key to retrieve the customer call information and/or the customer call information may be presented on a display for use by the second call agent during the call. The call key may be used to reduce an amount of data electronically transferred between call agents during telephone call transfers.

11. A system of managing a call agent to call agent telephone call transfer, the system comprising:
-
one or more processors; a communication network; a database; a first contact center device for a first call agent located at a contact center, wherein a customer call from a customer and customer call information for responding to the customer call are received at the first contact center device; a second contact center device for a second call agent; and a non-transitory computer-readable memory communicatively coupled to the one or more processors, the first contact center device, the second contact center device, the communication network, and the database, and storing thereon instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to; transfer the customer call, via the communication network, from the first call agent to the second call agent along with a customer call key stored in a database as a reference to customer call information for responding to the customer call without transferring the customer call information; use the call key to retrieve the customer information associated with the customer call key from the database; and present, via the communication network, the customer call information on a display for use by the second call agent during the customer call with the customer to facilitate alleviating electronically transferring sensitive information between call agents and to reduce an amount of data electronically transferred between call agents during telephone call transfers. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
