Call Center Workforce Management Software
Job #1 for Contact Center Managers
Call centers aren’t assembly lines operating under predictable conditions. The demand for agents is dynamic, often fluctuating with customer demand and call volume, making it challenging to maintain operational efficiency or create accurate forecasts and schedules. That's where Elevēo Workforce Management software comes in. Elevēo WFM helps ensure the right number of agents with the right skills are in the right seats at the right time, even if your agents work remotely, enhancing both customer satisfaction and agent performance.
Why Implement Workforce Management?
An effective call center workforce management solution supports your business by ensuring a consistent, superior customer experience while keeping your agents happy, productive and meeting your service level agreements (SLAs).
Elevēo Workforce Management tools empower contact centers by enabling leadership to:
Accurately Forecast Staffing Needs
Elevēo WFM accesses historical data, providing a fact-basis for predicting the number of agents needed for a given period. Intraday management capabilties enable managers to adapt schedules to different scenarios (e.g., seasonal demand, upcoming promotional campaigns) and contact volumes throughout the day.
Schedule for Multi-Skill Agents Across Channels
Elevēo’s WFM software enhances the scheduling process, making it easy to schedule different queues (voice, chat, or email) within the same schedule. We also make it easy to schedule agents with multiple skills to several different queues at the same time. Our algorithms calculate their contributions to each queue, facilitating the creation of an optimized schedule that considers agent availability and customer interaction volume.
Monitor Schedule Adherence
Elevēo WFM provides an interactive adherence history for agents across voice and chat channels, letting managers know whether an agent has strayed from their schedule. Real-Time Adherence (RTA) allows supervisors to see in real time whether their agents are following their schedule, crucial for maintaining operational efficiency and fulfilling expected SLAs. An immediate notification displays when an agent is out of adherence so that the supervisor can take action.
Adjust Schedules As Needed During the Day
Eleveo WFM allows you to react quickly to unplanned fluctuations in customer demand or agent availability throughout the day. Forecasts can’t be perfect every day. Our Intraday Management tool, with automatic reforecasting, allows you to easily make informed changes and re-optimize agent schedules on-the-fly.
Benefits of Elevēo Workforce Management Solution
Today's business environment challenges contact centers to do more with less. Schedule optimization, employee engagement, streamlined agent workflows, and standardized reporting have never been more important. You need innovative technology tools to get the most from your limited resources.
Elevēo Workforce Management aligns a contact center's people and processes to achieve key customer, agent, and management objectives.

Attracting and Retaining Productive, Satisfied Agents
Attracting and Retaining Productive, Satisfied Agents
Are your agents burned out by too many calls in a shift or bored by too few? Do their work schedules balance shift times and tempos? What degree of input do they have in managing their PTO and swapping shifts with other agents? All of these factors are critical to agent satisfaction.
Elevēo's WFM tools help manage agent workloads, optimize schedules and increase agent autonomy, everything essential to attracting and retaining the best.
