What is meant by per active user and per concurrent user?

With our per active user pricing model, you are charged based on the number of unique users who were active on the Call Handling system during the specified billing period.

On the other hand, the per concurrent user model charges based on the peak number of users actively using the VCC system simultaneously within a month.

How are active users and concurrent users calculated?
Learn how we determine active and concurrent users during a billing period below.

Active Users

  • Active users are unique individuals who have interacted with the system at least once during the billing period.
  • We determine their activity based on the recorded events they have initiated or performed; when the system registers a user-triggered event, we consider the user active for that billing period.

Concurrent Users

  • Concurrent users represent the highest number of individuals using the system simultaneously within the billing period, including both web users and active users.
  • To determine concurrency, the VCC system maintains sessions for each user. A session is a period when a user is actively engaged with the system. Sessions are initiated by user activity or events, and end after 15 minutes of inactivity.
  • When users indicate readiness for work, a session begins. If a user is active and not occupied with other tasks on the system, the session will continue until they log out. Consequently, active user sessions are not affected by the 15-minute inactivity timer mentioned earlier.
  • To calculate the maximum concurrent users, we count the highest number of overlapping sessions lasting more than 15 minutes. This 15-minute timeframe accounts for the activity timeout and allows users a grace period to transition between shifts.
