Discover exactly what you can test, what you can’t, and how to get the most out of Issabel’s official testing environment.
Introduction
The Issabel Contact Center DEMO exists for a reason: to let you try out the core of our contact center solution, risk-free and with no commitments. Whether you’re an integrator, a curious techie, a reseller, or you just want to see if this is for you, this demo is your first real (and unfiltered) look at the platform.
What is the Issabel Contact Center DEMO?
It’s not a video, it’s not a PowerPoint presentation, and it’s not a “guided demo” that only shows you the pretty parts. It’s a real environment, installed in your own test environment, limited in agents and features, allowing anyone to evaluate the core of the Issabel Contact Center under lab conditions.
Perfect for those who want to get their hands dirty, test flows, connect channels, and truly experiment before making a decision.
What can you do with the DEMO?
Here’s what’s enabled:
- WebRTC Phone (Webphone Pro): Make and receive calls from your browser, with all standard features.
- Telegram Digital Channel: Integrate your own Telegram bot (following the manual) and simulate asynchronous communication with customers. No Webchat or SMS in the demo.
- Internal Chat between Extensions: Agents can communicate with each other via internal chat.
- Chat Broker and Chatbots: You can create and test chatbots, including AI bots using Claude, ChatGPT, or Groq. Chat analytics are also available.
- Contact Book with Click to Call: Manage your clients and make calls with a single click.
- Call PopUps: Agents see basic notifications when receiving or making calls.
- Queues: You can route calls to the two active agents.
- Free FOP2 features: Presence, extension panel (up to 15 items in “buttons” in the demo), basic monitoring.
- Breaks: Agents can manage pauses/breaks as needed.
- Scripter: 20-day trial to test the creation of scripts and dynamic forms.
- Asternic (advanced reports): 20-day trial available upon logging in at stats.
- Chat analytics: Available for analyzing chatbot activity.
- Recommendation: Place the agents you’ll use first in the list and with all permissions, to make management easier.
What can’t you do (and why)?
Here’s what nobody mentions in the brochure:
- No automatic dialer: Not enabled in the demo and no trial is available.
- No group creation: This feature is not available.
- Only two active agents: Ideal for basic testing, not for large teams.
- No integration with Webchat or SMS: Only Telegram is available in the demo.
- Agent Console widget is not available: In the demo, advanced notifications for automatic campaign assignment are not shown. When a campaign call comes in, you won’t see the pop-up with detailed information (number, name, automatic assignment, contact details, etc.) as you would in the full version. You’ll only receive a basic call notification, not the full experience of automatic distribution or rich campaign notifications.
- API/automation for bulk contact uploads: Only available in production.
- Full omnichannel: Only Telegram is available in the demo.
- Visual limit: You can only see up to 15 items in “buttons” on the panel (demo without license); you can disable extensions if needed.
- Advanced categorization and rescheduling: Only visible when automatic campaigns are enabled (not in the demo).
- Advanced reporting and Scripter: Only available in trial mode.
- Advanced extension and group management: Not available in the demo.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I integrate WhatsApp in the demo?
No, only Telegram is enabled in the demo. WhatsApp and other digital channels require an active license and full environment configuration.

No, the dialer is only enabled for licensed customers. There is no trial for the dialer in the demo.
Can I see advanced campaign notifications (Agent Console)?
No, the Agent Console widget is not enabled in the demo. You will only see the basic call notification.
Is there a contact limit in the address book?
There is no practical limit for testing, but in demo environments, it’s recommended to keep it simple to avoid saturation.

Yes, you can use the Chat Broker to test basic integrations with Claude, ChatGPT, or Groq.
Is the demo suitable for real agent training?
It’s suitable for testing and basic training, but not for real operations or large team training.
Why this demo model?
It’s not about being stingy with technology, it’s about keeping your experience smooth, safe, and risk-free. Letting everything run wild would be like handing the keys of a Ferrari to someone who’s never driven an automatic: possible disaster.
The demo is your “test drive” on a controlled track. If you want the full circuit, we’re ready to guide you.
