Configure Single Sign-On Integration with NetSuite

• Easy installation using SuiteBundler: NetSuite user is mapped to 8x8 Contact Center Agent profile.
• Reduced and convenient 8x8 Contact Center sign-in time while working on NetSuite.
• Improved security: We do not store the NetSuite user credentials and password in 8x8 Contact Center to reduce the chance of login credentials being compromised.
• Enhanced user experience: Users can seamlessly sign in to 8x8 Contact Center from the NetSuite dashboard.
  The advantages of Single Sign-On are:
  • No need to remember or enter 8x8 Contact Center user credentials.
  • Full functions of 8x8 Contact Center and NetSuite.
  • No need to refresh 8x8 Contact Center while using NetSuite.

Notes:
- iframe is not supported in the new release: The 8x8 8x8 Contact Center appears on a separate browser window.
-Single Sign-On is the only option for new customers. Existing customers cannot revert to Individual System Sign-On once they choose Single Sign-On for integration.

• The change from Individual System Sign-On to Single Sign-On is done at the tenant level, and is therefore applied to all agents. Once you choose Single Sign-On, you cannot go back to Individual System Sign-On.
• You can associate only one tenant per 8x8 Contact Center bundle. To work around this, contact 8x8, Inc. professional services.
