What is Call Intercept?

Call Intercept is a real-time call center software feature that gives supervisors the ability to take control of a live call by removing the agent from the line.

It is designed for situations where immediate action is necessary, whether to address a mistake, handle a sensitive issue, or step in when a call becomes unmanageable.

Unlike passive monitoring, call intercept puts the supervisor directly into the conversation. It’s a practical solution for maintaining call quality, protecting agents from abusive callers, or guiding important interactions without delay.

Ensure Quality & Customer Satisfaction

Call intercept empowers managers to protect customer experience in real time, resolve issues on the spot, and coach agents effectively by example.

How to Use Call Intercept?

While KrispCall doesn’t offer the Call Intercept feature, it provides a similar and powerful functionality called “Call Barging.” This allows supervisors to join live calls, assist agents in real-time, and even speak directly with customers when needed. Here’s how it works:

how-to-use-call-intercept
1

Log in to your KrispCall account and open the “dashboard.”

2

Tap on the Live Calls. Pick the agent you want to coach and click on the “🎧 Coach” button.

3

Click the “Barge” button. Now, you will be able to interact with customers while assisting the agent on the call without disrupting the customer experience.

Benefits of Call Intercept

Here’s what call intercept brings to your team and customer conversations

On-the-spot support

Supervisors can step in mid-call to assist agents during tough conversations. It ensures no one faces aggressive or overwhelming callers alone.

Better customer experience

If a call goes off track, supervisors can take over and resolve the issues quickly. This helps maintain professionalism and customer trust.

Hands-on coaching

Interceptions can also serve as valuable live teaching moments for newer agents. It’s an effective way to guide them without disrupting workflow rather than correcting issues later.

Elevated quality assurance

Taking over live calls gives supervisors firsthand insight into call quality. It supports more accurate reviews and targeted improvement.

Step in When it Matters Most with Call Intercept Feature

Empower supervisors to monitor, coach, and take action in real time—without disrupting the customer experience.

Call intercept frequency and reasons are automatically tracked to help managers spot patterns. These insights guide coaching efforts and support targeted team development.

Managers can take control of ongoing calls without disrupting the flow of conversation. Customers experience a steady conversation, even when a supervisor steps in.

Automatically record all intercepted calls with clear indicators of when and by whom supervision occurs to create a reliable record for QA and training insights.

Supervisors can guide agents silently during live calls. This helps new team members handle tricky moments while learning on the job.

Yes, you can intercept both inbound and outbound calls. This gives supervisors or admins the flexibility to monitor or step in whenever real-time assistance or oversight is needed.

Call Intercept software is a legal, cloud-based tool used by businesses to monitor and manage calls for quality, training, and compliance purposes. Interception devices, on the other hand, are typically hardware tools used for surveillance, often without consent, and may not be legally permitted in many jurisdictions.
