The monitor dashboard for a call center provides an overview of all dialing, email, SMS, and chat activities across all the services associated with the call center in real time.
For voice, email, and SMS channels, the widgets that appear on the Outbound, Blended, or Inbound tab are based on the Graphical User Interface (GUI) settings.
Managing the View
You can manage the view on the Voice monitor dashboard as needed.
- If you want to change the position of a widget within the dashboard, you can drag the widget to where you want by using the dotted table icon, which appears next to the label of each widget.
- If you want to monitor the agents who are available (Ready state), as well as monitor the agents who are unavailable (Not Ready state), at the same time, you can do so by creating multiple widgets through the GUI settings.
You can use the Monitor widget to view call statistics for the current day. The statistics correspond to the overall values for the enterprise. You can view the statistics in a graphical view or a tabular view by using the Flip to Graphical View icon or the Flip to Table View icon , respectively.

- Inbound service statistics with the percentage of inbound calls and percentages of the average handle and talk time for the service.
