Management:
Step 1: Verify that Agent has completed all Troubleshooting below
- Browser Troubleshooting
-
Agent Rebooting Computer is allowed
- To avoid any disruption to coverage or productivity, we ask that any restarts during working hours be approved by management first.
- That said, feel free to reboot your computer outside of working hours as needed, doing so won’t interfere with your ability to take calls.
-
Confirm that the uptime screenshot reflects proper requirements
- A fresh reboot means the uptime should be from the same day, usually under 1 hour if the screenshot was taken soon after login.
- It should not show something like 1 day, 2 days, or longer.
Step 2: Complete Internet Troubleshooting
- Confirm internet service is functional if not conduct standard internet troubleshooting.
- If using Wi-Fi, Five9 will not function reliably, the employee must switch to an ethernet connection.
- If already using an ethernet connection, make sure the ethernet cable is working.
- Confirm Performance requirements
- Check internet speed
- Google “internet speed test”
- Check internet speed
- Ensure that your internet speed matches the indicated below

Step 4: Complete the Issue Template & Submit IT Ticket
- Open a ticket via Service Now using the template below.
- CC both [Copy Yourself to have visibility] and Yair on the ticket.
- Include the completed template in the body or as an attachment.
Step 5: Track Recurring Issues
- Ask the affected agent to document at least three additional examples (with timestamps and screenshots).
- Screenshots need to be of the full screen, not just the error message. So technical teams can have as much context as possible.
- These examples should be forwarded under the same ticket to provide evidence of ongoing issues.
Step 6: Escalation & Monitoring
- IT will review the case and verify settings.
- If necessary, they will engage Five9 Support and may install a tracking tool on the agent’s computer to gather logs.
