Background: This article has been created to guide support agents in using the Digital First Omnichannel (DFO) environment’s softphone, which is integrated within Salesforce. This helps to ensure all agents can efficiently manage Calls, Chats, and Email Interactions.

Note

Any issues with the DFO Softphone, such as dropped calls, connectivity problems, sound issues, system crashes, or failed calls, should be reported to the CXone Support Team.
