What is WebRTC?
WebRTC is an open framework for the web that enables Real Time Communications in the browser.

The WebRTC is an effort being standardized on an API level at the W3C and the protocol level at the IETF.
What is CBA Live Assist?
CBA Live Assist is a software development kit (SDK) product based on the cutting-edge Web Real Time Communication (WebRTC) technology.

Real-time communication creates brilliant customer experience for corporate service and support.

What server resources are needed to install CBA Live Assist?

Yes. CBA Live Assist functions can be built into custom-made mobile applications or a mobile web browser platform such as Chrome.
What browsers does CBA Live Assist co-browse and other features work on?
CBA Live Assist works well on most modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). WebRTC is a widely accepted standard that is built-in to most browsers. However, there is support for non-WebRTC browsers by use of a plug-in.
Since Cisco’s REM is EOS, can an installation of REM be migrated to CBA Live Assist?
Unfortunately, there is no migration path from REM directly to using CBA Live Assist. A new installation is needed for CBA Live Assist and then services can then be cut-over to existing infrastructure.
