Over the last year, the discussion has centered on our national performance as it relates to college success. Of the 2 million people who enroll in bachelor programs each year, about 40 percent or 800,000 will never graduate. For the second year in a row, a key theme in the President’s State of the Union Address was the importance of giving everyone the best possible chance at an education so we can again take the lead in the proportion of college graduates in the world.

In a nutshell, CTI allows you to do call control with a computer. The complexity goes far beyond that, but that’s the most significant piece from the salesforce perspective. Pause. So let’s say you as a customer call up your credit card company with an inquiry. It’s usually a 1800 number, and you are presented with options, starting with whether you want to continue in english or spanish. This piece is called the IVR, or Interactive Voice Response. The call is routed to an agent queue based on the skills required. The call reaches the hardphone at the agents desk, and it starts ringing. Pause. In the meanwhile, the call information, like the caller number, dialled number, options selected, account number etc are all available. These are all help identify the customer and the issue. Wouldn’t it be great if we could pull up the customers details based on this information?Pause. And that’s where CTI comes in. The salesforce CTI application allows telephony a telephony platform or CTI server to query salesforce for this information. It also renders a softphone to allows the agent to do call control. And based on the results, you can screen pop the appropriate page in salesforce.com.
The call control in salesforce is provided through a softphone. Here’s the softphone in the Service Cloud Console. When a call comes in, we screen pop the account details in a new tab. At the same time, all the existing tabs remain intact. In the standard salesforce app, it is housed in the sidebar available on most pages.Pause.The application consists of 2 pieces. The first piece speaks to salesforce. The second piece, also called the CTI adapter, speaks to the telephony systems using an API. Pause, Our partners customize the adapter to speak to ensure that the right call information gets presented to the agent.
Pause. CTI-4.0 is our newest CTI release. It is a complete re-architecture of the product, and is the first step to a complete server side CTI solution. In essence, we have taken out all the salesforce.com code that was housed in the application and moved it to the cloud. Pause. So what’s left on the client machine? Why is anything still left at all? Well, the partner adapter is still on the client. We want to introduce this re-architecture incrementally and grandfather partners in to this new model. What’s left on the client on the salesforce side however, is now just a shell, which communicates between the browser and the partners adapter. Pause. There are so many benefits with this re-architecture. I’m going to highlight a few of the most important ones. Pause.First, CTI can now be used with any browser! It’s still a windows application, so it has to be a windows browser. However, any thing FF 3+, IE8+, Chrome 10+ is supported. Second, we now give partners the complete source code to the application. This makes it easier for them to leverage and customize it. At the same time, it’s easier to maintain and debug. Finally, we’re out of the COM restriction. The standard web technologies we use allow us to innovate so much more. And for all browsers. It also means we are more stable and don’t have to concern ourselves with 32 bit vs 64 bit.
I’m not going to delve too much into this slide. However, at high level, I just want to point out the major differences between CTI-4.0 and it’s previous versions. Where AJAX is now, we user COM before. Pause.The “browser” box that you see used to be only IE, and Firefox 3.6. And finally, the Browser Connector Shell, with it’s impressive sounding name, was not available to partners as open code. This means that when something went wrong there, they had to reach out to us. Now, it is just a light weight message proxy.
