The Complexities of Call Center Management

No longer do call centers just answer incoming calls and transfer them from one department to another. Technologies and rising customer expectations make contact center management more challenging than it’s ever been if you haven’t deployed the right workforce optimization, workforce management, media capture and quality management software.

Accurate Analytics and Reports

Most call centers collect and store large volumes of consumer data. The trick is transforming that data into actionable, decision-making intelligence. Eleveo analytics tools and dashboards, populated with the right data and employed for a well-defined strategic purpose, are the keys to accelerating raw data’s time-to-value and maximizing that value.

Workforce Optimization

Positioning agents with the right skills in the right seats at the right time - at the lowest cost possible - is the essence of successful contact center management. Eleveo WFO delivers comprehensive, real-time visibility into operational and agent effectiveness. Our WFO is an integrated suite of tools that fuels intelligence-driven decisions, maximizes organizational agility, monitors KPIs and elevates the customer and employee experience.

Improving Customer Experience

Increasingly, digital and social channels are reshaping customer expectations. Customers are gradually becoming more demanding, potentially resulting in higher attrition rates. To maintain their loyalty, contact centers must provide prompt service through the customers’ preferred channel. Using Eleveo’s survey and emotion detection, as well as our conversation and screen capture tools, you can gain insights into customer experience and protect your brand.
