User Experience (UX)

Desktop Language Internationalization

Lays the groundwork for supporting multiple languages, number formats, and text directions in the Infinity desktop. Covers key UI sections and prepares the platform for global reach. The following languages are supported with some limitations*:

  • English

  • German

  • French

  • Spanish (United States)

  • Portuguese (Brazil)

  • Japanese

*Localization enhancements for the above languages will continue in upcoming releases to support complete localization experience. For example, in the case of Analytics: Dashboard Title and Data, Report data, and Metrics Localization will be supported in a future release. Additionally, error messages within Admin and Desktop and certain Admin sections will be localized in a future release.


Presence/Availability Indicator Improvements

The Presence/Availability indicator is now grayed out when agents are not logged into CX, and hidden from team views if the agent is logged out. This avoids confusion about agent status and ensures presence states are only visible when relevant. No changes to core state modeling were required; this is a usability-focused update.

Documentation Reference: Managing CX status in Agent Desktop


Microsoft Edge Support

Brings Microsoft Edge web browser support to Infinity to allow customers more web browser options, especially those who do not support Chrome as a web browser within their organization. This support requires the then current version of Microsoft Edge.

License Enforcement

Avaya Infinity™ introduces License Type Enforcement for user management ensuring strict alignment between user capabilities and the customer’s subscribed offer bundles. 

  • Customer administrators can assign license types—such as Essentials Voice, Essentials Digital, Advanced, Ultra or Hybrid Voice directly from the Infinity Admin Console, with the interface displaying only the license types that are ordered and enabled for the Infinity account. 

  • This change enforces permissions automatically (e.g., disabling voice fields for digital-only agents) and ensures that metering is based on assigned license types rather than complex configuration logic.  

  • Additionally, a Non-Agent license type is introduced for personas such as Administrators, Analytics and non-agent supervisor users who do not require agent-based capabilities. This license type is non-billable thereby avoiding unnecessary license costs otherwise incurred for such users while still granting access to essential functions like Analytics, Team views, and administrative controls.
