Richardson, Texas – October 17, 2001—IEX, a Tekelec company (Nasdaq: TKLC) and a leading provider of contact center solutions, today announced that Yourhomedirect.com (YHD) Realty selected TotalView(TM) SC to improve productivity and optimize resources for its contact center in New Jersey.  

TotalView SC, a version of IEX’s award-winning TotalView Workforce Management solution targeted at contact centers with fewer than 100 agents, runs on a Windows or Unix Platform.  The small center package delivers enterprise functionality at a price that fits the budget of a small contact center.  As the contact center grows, the scalable TotalView solution grows along with the center avoiding the need for time and task intensive software upgrades.

“We explored several competitive companies and found that IEX is best suited to fill our current needs, while having the flexibility and capabilities to grow with us in the future,” said Glenn Cohen, YHD president.
