That's about the size of it.   Until Medicaid contracted with an outside
vendor to set up a call center in 2005, we had a lot of that, and, even
today, we must interact with the call center and use the same software
it does.  The only outright failure we've had involved our new pharmacy
interface.  There are three ways to implement Citrix, and the contractor
chose the one JFW can't handle (bad planning).  Nonetheless, I have
other ways of accessing information, when it becomes absolutely
necessary, and an excellent working relationship with the contractor's
pharmacy provider specialist, so no real harm was done.

I do use JFW in a call center environment, and actually quite easily 
for the most part. I've chosen to respond on the list as it might be 
beneficial for more than one person. Currently, I use JFW 7.10, and 
know someone in our Edmonton office using 8.0. We use a bunch of 
custom applications, most of which JAWS likes fairly well--a lot of 
them are HTML based, so JAWS inherently has no difficulty with those 
ones. There are a couple that require workarounds, but between the 
two of us and our support staff it's not been too difficult to 
implement. It all depends on the call center and how willing they are 
to accomodate your needs. How well JAWS works with this or that 
application is of little consequence if the employer in question 
isn't willing to make the few minor adjustments that may be required.
