Why Your Website and Call Center Should Be Besties: The Amazon Connect Love Story!

Ever feel like your website and call center are two ships passing in the night? One’s all flashy and interactive, the other’s stuck in a queue playing elevator music. Well, buckle up, because integrating them with Amazon Connect is like giving them a matchmaking app – sparks fly, efficiency soars, and your customers? They’re the ones getting the happy ending!

The Perks of Playing Matchmaker

Picture this: A customer lands on your site, browses your killer products, but hits a snag. Instead of rage-quitting to a competitor, they click a chat button and – poof! – instant help. No more “hold please” nightmares. With Amazon Connect, you get:

  • Seamless Chat Integration: Start with text-based chit-chat right on your site. It’s like whispering sweet nothings to your customers without the awkward small talk.
  • Escalation Shenanigans: Chat not cutting it? Escalate to voice, video, or even desktop sharing. Imagine screen-sharing a troubleshooting session – it’s like having a virtual IT genie pop out of your browser!
  • AI-Powered Wit: Our AWS Lex bots handle the basics, answering product queries with the charm of a stand-up comedian. “What’s the warranty on that widget?” Boom, answered faster than you can say “human agent.” Only escalate when things get real – saving time, money, and sanity.

The benefits? Happier customers who feel heard (literally), lower abandonment rates, and agents freed up for the tough stuff. It’s not just integration; it’s a full-on bromance between digital and human touchpoints.

“Pick and Park” feature?

Pick & Park™ for Amazon Connect – Finally, Real Agent Call Control

Amazon Connect is amazing – but sometimes, agents need more control than a routing flow can provide.

That’s why we created Pick & Park™, a pair of features designed by DrVoIP to give agents the power to:

  • See who’s waiting in queue – and choose the right caller
  • Park any live call – and return to it later without losing context
  • Toggle between multiple calls – like a trading desk or dispatcher

What is Pick & Park™?

Pick lets agents view all waiting contacts in real time and click to answer a specific one. This is ideal for VIP customers, repeat callers, or when judgment matters more than FIFO logic.

Park enables agents to place a call into a “staged” state – not HOLD, but a true pause – so they can answer another call, then return to the original conversation when ready. Think of it as call juggling without the chaos.

Together, they form CallBoard™ – a single-agent control dashboard that works with your existing Amazon Connect instance.

Why This Matters

Most Amazon Connect deployments rely entirely on flows and automation. That’s great for scaling – but what about when a human agent needs to act like a human?

Call escalation teams, sales desks, healthcare triage, and dispatch centers all need tools to:

  • Pick the right call at the right moment
  • Switch between calls in progress
  • Park a call while researching or collaborating
