How do Warm Transfers work in practice?
Just launched our Warm Transfer feature and curious about real-world use cases!
Here's how it works:
1. Customer requests to speak with a human
2. Customer goes on hold (with music/message)
3. Agent gets called and receives a full context briefing
4. Both parties are connected - agent already knows what the customer needs
This is huge for support teams because agents don't start "cold" - they have the full conversation context, customer needs, and can jump right into solving the problem.
Questions for the community:
• What industries benefit most from warm transfers?
• How do you handle the briefing - what context is most valuable?
• Any edge cases we should consider?
Also works for web calls → phone transfers (unique to Famulor) and SIP trunks without REFER support.
What's your experience with call transfers? What would make them better?
