Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise (CCE) supports a variety of desktop application choices for 
agents and supervisors, as described in the following sections.
Agent Desktops
An agent desktop application is a required component of a Unified CCE deployment. The contact center 
agent uses this application to perform agent state control (login, logout, ready, not ready, and wrap-up) 
and call control (answer, release, hold, retrieve, make call, transfer, and conference). In addition to these 
required features, the application can provide enhanced features that are useful in a contact center 
environment.
There are seven primary types of Unified CCE agent desktop applications available, as listed below.
Agent Desktop Applications Offered by Cisco
Cisco Agent Desktop (CAD) — A packaged agent desktop solution supporting an embedded 
browser and scripted workflow automation.
CTI Desktop Toolkit — A development toolkit that provides agent desktop applications and that 
supports full customization and integration with other applications, customer databases, and 
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) applications.
CTI Driver for Siebel — A CTI driver for the Siebel Communication Server.
Cisco Unified IP Phone Agent — An agent desktop solution provided through the Cisco Unified IP 
Phone display.
Cisco Agent Desktop Browser Edition (CAD-BE) — A browser-based agent application that
