Amazon Connect Customer Agents Can Now Pause and Resume Emails

Amazon Connect Customer just rolled out email pause and resume functionality, letting agents step away from emails to handle urgent calls without losing their place. This feature tracks paused time separately, giving supervisors better visibility into actual work time, and it's now live across 10 regions including US, Europe, Asia Pacific, Canada, and Africa.
