Vodia Networks, Inc. Now Integrates with the NICE AI CX Platform

Published on:

June 5, 2024

Vodia Networks, Inc. now integrates with NICE, the leading cloud-native customer experience (CX) platform, through the Session Recording Protocol (SIPREC). SIPREC is an open SIP-based protocol that records calls by establishing a session through a System Resource Controller (SRC) and Software Requirements Specification (SRS). This integration enables seamless recording and management of customer interactions across various data sources and channels. Vodia's cloud phone system, which introduced SIPREC in 2018, supports NICE Enlighten XO, an AI-driven platform that optimizes digital CX by analyzing conversations and prioritizing automation opportunities.

Vodia Networks, Inc. is pleased to announce we now integrate with NICE, the world’s #1 cloud native customer experience (CX) platform, thanks to SIPREC. But what is SIPREC?

Session Recording Protocol (SIPREC) is an open SIP-based protocol for recording calls, one compatible with numerous call recording system providers and Session Border Controllers (SBC) that support its interface. The recording device establishes the communication session, which is recorded by a System Resource Controller (SRC) and the Software Requirements Specification (SRS). The media path between users is accessed by the session recording client. The recording session is established with the SRS, then replicated media is delivered to the SRS. The standard for SIPREC is defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), the Standards Development Organization (SDO) for the Internet. The IETF establishes voluntary standards which equipment vendors, Internet users and network operators universally follow. By implementing these standards, the IETF supports the development of the Internet. 

Vodia is the industry’s leading cloud phone system, and our recording interface arsenal has long included SIPREC, with its formal introduction in version 61 in July 2018. It has been bolstered and enhanced with subsequent releases, and we now interface with NICE’s scalable, secure and robust AI CX platform for easy recording and management of customer interactions from multiple data sources and channels. 

Recording is one of the core functions of contact centers: it captures digital, screen and voice interactions for key insights into customer behavior that ultimately improve the customer experience. It’s at the heart of many of the applications required by banks, call centers, emergency services and financial institutions, all of which require secure communication and data protection, both foundations of our platform. We are a call center pioneer, and we continue to enhance and improve our contact center solution. 

The Vodia cloud phone system supports NICE Enlighten XO (Experience Optimization), which analyzes conversations to build effective self-service and transform digital CX. Driven by AI purpose-built for CX, it combines the largest dataset of historical conversational data with voice and text interactions to prioritize automation opportunities by ROI, eliminating guesswork. Vodia’s multi-tenant software enables Enlighten XO and other NICE platforms to capture all call and screen requirements, then makes them easy to find via the NICE management portal.

How Vodia Helps Hotels Not Disturb Their Guests

Vodia’s cloud PBX system enhances the Do-Not-Disturb (DND) function for hotels, allowing guests to manage their privacy through buttons in the room or on the phone. The system syncs with PMS for seamless functionality, enabling hotel operators to manually override DND when guests struggle to disable it. For critical situations, like room service follow-ups, the system allows specific extensions to bypass DND, ensuring guests are reachable when needed. VIP guest management features, guest-to-guest call restrictions and automatic resets upon checkout ensure privacy, security, and convenience, improving the guest experience while maintaining operational efficiency.
