1. A system for hybrid callback management, comprising:
a callback cloud service comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a first plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the first programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:
maintain relevant agent and brand data from an on-premise callback system;
execute callback requests;
calculate estimated wait times for callbacks; and
an on-premise callback system comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a second plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the second programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:
send data related to callback objects and agents to a callback cloud service;
create a callback object upon a consumer requesting a call back;
execute callbacks between consumers and agents at a specified time; and
connect the two parties, when the two first and second called parties are online, and delete the callback object.
