Assignment is the easy part.
Routing, automation, AI, and omnichannel support are already in place. On paper, your operations are connected. In practice, complexity starts after the work is assigned: queues overload, escalations stall, and your team compensates by hand when workflows stop adapting.
Ortoo Orchestrator extends Omni-Channel so work keeps being handled after assignment: routing adapts, escalations fire, and approvals and cross-functional handoffs are coordinated as one workflow inside Salesforce.
- Extends Omni-Channel
- Round robin and fair distribution
- Push or pull models
- 100% Salesforce native






Omni-Channel routes the work. Ortoo Orchestrator handles what happens next.
Salesforce Omni-Channel distributes work to the right queue at the moment of assignment. Ortoo Orchestrator covers omnichannel orchestration for Salesforce. It handles everything after that: as queues fill, SLAs tighten, and owners go offline, routing keeps adapting, escalations fire on the conditions you set, and a case stays on one workflow as it crosses teams. It runs natively inside Salesforce, extending Salesforce's Omni-Channel.
Most operational complexity starts after the work is assigned.
The interaction layer works. Customers reach you. Cases route correctly. Omni-Channel distributes work. The operational workflow behind the interaction is where consistency breaks down.
Without Ortoo Orchestrator
Distribution without coordination
- 01Routing made sense at assignment
- 02Workload conditions changed afterward
- 03Escalations depend on someone noticing
- 04Teams coordinate handoffs manually
Work that fragments
Queues overload. Escalations stall. Operations carry the slack manually.
With Ortoo Orchestrator
Coordinated workflow execution
- 01Routing adapts as conditions change
- 02Workload re-balanced continuously
- 03Escalations fire on configured conditions
- 04One workflow continues across teams
Routing, escalation, and follow-through handled together end to end.
Distribute, coordinate, and adapt, inside Salesforce.
Omnichannel 2.0 extends Salesforce Omni-Channel into operational workflow coordination. One configurable model handles routing, escalation, and cross-functional execution across every channel you operate on.
Dynamic workload coordination.
Cases and interactions are continuously balanced across queues on queue state, workload, SLA exposure, expertise, and operational priority. Routing decisions adapt as operational conditions change, not just at assignment.
Escalation orchestration.
Escalations route automatically with ownership, context, and workflow continuity intact. SLA risk, workload, AI signals, approval bottlenecks, and ownership changes all trigger configured escalation paths.
Cross-functional workflow coordination.
Support, operations, customer success, back-office teams, and AI systems operate inside one orchestrated workflow. Handoffs preserve context, ownership, and downstream operational steps.
What changes day to day.
Routing keeps working after assignment.
Workload rebalances as queues fill and owners go offline.
Escalations fire on their own.
SLA risk, workload, and approval bottlenecks trigger configured paths.
Handoffs keep their context.
Work crosses teams without losing ownership or history.
One workflow spans every channel.
Chat, email, voice, and messaging run on one model.
Every decision is logged.
Routing and escalation stay traceable inside Salesforce.
Cost stays predictable.
Pricing follows work completed, not token usage.
Extend Salesforce Omni-Channel without replacing Salesforce.
Ortoo Orchestrator runs natively inside Salesforce using your existing data model, automation, security model, and integrations. Omni-Channel, Flow, routing rules, Agentforce, and existing integrations continue operating underneath.
No new system of record. No data duplication. No external workflow engine.

Omnichannel in action: Assent Compliance
Assent Compliance runs a global compliance operations platform supporting customers across 16 teams, each with distinct routing requirements. Product area, language, case complexity, and customer tier all factor into every assignment. Omni-Channel was in place for queue distribution. What it could not handle was the multi-factor routing logic the operation actually required, or the AI triage needed to classify cases before a routing decision could be made. 120,000+ records processed in three months across 16 teams, with near-100% routing.
Operational hurdles
16 teams with distinct routing requirements across language, product area, complexity tier, and SLA
Omni-Channel distributing work to queues but not applying multi-factor routing within them
Manual triage required before cases could reach the right team, consuming senior-agent capacity
AI classification needed at intake but no governed execution layer to connect it to routing
Measurable results
Near-100% first-touch routing accuracy across all 16 teams from day one
120,000+ records processed through the orchestrated routing layer in 3 months
All case triage automated, AI classification runs at intake, routing fires on the output
Operations team adjusts routing logic and AI rules directly, without IT involvement
When routing has to keep adapting after assignment, the result shows up in the numbers.
Equativ
Multi-factor distribution with several signals weighed together, so routing keeps adapting as workload and ownership change.

Common questions about omnichannel workflow orchestration
How is this different from Salesforce Omni-Channel?
Omni-Channel distributes work across channels and queues. Ortoo Orchestrator coordinates how workflows execute after assignment, across routing, escalation, AI tools, approvals, and cross-functional operations. Omni-Channel continues to operate underneath; Orchestrator adds the workflow coordination layer.
Do we have to replace our current omnichannel setup?
No. Ortoo Orchestrator works with existing Omni-Channel, Flow, assignment rules, Agentforce, and external integrations. Organisations typically start with one workflow and expand from there.
How does AI fit into orchestrated omnichannel workflows?
AI operates inside governed workflow execution. AI contributes where interpretation adds value, classification, triage, prioritisation, escalation recommendations. Workflow progression, escalation handling, approvals, and operational coordination remain controlled by the orchestration model. AI usage is configurable and visible per step.
What kinds of escalations can Ortoo Orchestrator handle?
Ortoo Orchestrator handles SLA-driven escalations, workload-driven escalations, AI-flagged escalations, ownership-change escalations, approval bottleneck escalations, and cross-functional escalations. Escalation logic is configured per workflow with ownership, context, and continuity intact.
How does this integrate with back-office and external systems?
When workflows span external systems, Ortoo Orchestrator coordinates those interactions inside the same operational workflow. Connected systems include operational platforms, APIs, data platforms, and back-office tools. No external workflow engine is required.
Where is impact typically seen first?
Usually reduced manual escalation oversight, fewer queue bottlenecks, more consistent SLA handling, end-to-end workflow visibility, and reduced operational overhead. At scale, the larger impact is omnichannel workflows that continue executing reliably as operational conditions change.
