Client (PC) Requirements

CallScripter is a web application that your users will access through an Internet Explorer browser (IE). It makes use of JavaScript throughout and ActiveX for some integration options. CallScripter advise Internet Explorer is run in 32bit mode and telephony functionality requires this (identified below).
 
Windows Versions
CallScripter is supported when running Internet Explorer on Windows XP, 7, 8.1 and 8. 
 
Internet Explorer Settings
Internet Explorer must to be configured with the settings defined in the following article for CallScripter to function correctly:  Internet Explorer Settings
 
Client PC Spec
CallScripter is a real time application and so resource availability on the client machine should be specified with this and other client side application demands in mind.  Full details on the Client PC Spec requirements can be found in the following article:  Client PC Hardware Specs
 
Agent Desktop & Telephony Integrations
Agent Desktop and associated CT Provider (Communication Toolbar Provider) functionality makes use of current web browser technologies and supports all current CallScripter functionality. These require Internet Explorer to be run as a 32bit application.
 
We also provide a Legacy Agent Desktop with associated CTI (Computer Telephony Integration) functionality that provides support for older web browser technologies. However some newer, advanced functions are not available with this Legacy Agent Desktop. These require Internet Explore to be run as a 32bit application.
 
These different telephony integration platforms for each Agent Desktop version support different phone switch and dialer platforms and so please contact the Professional Services team to confirm options.
 
The following table describes the two versions of the Agent Desktop, and Supported IE versions (across the supported Windows Versions). This is for CallScripter versions 4.5.24 and above.
