As an old adage goes, "If you can measure it, you can improve it".
With over 150 quantitative metrics available your call center runs smoothly and problems are easily pointed out. You can measure budget targets, SLA targets, agent activity and more, with a level of details that goes down to listening to any call on any queue - and right from your browser.
What will QueueMetrics do for me?
Operations managers...
See a very detailed report of call center activity, down to each call on each queue.
Run reports by single queues, or by user-created queue groups, both on inbound and outbound traffic.
Listen to recorded calls.
See activity statistics and duration by call stage, with daily, hourly (or shorter), weekly breakdowns.
Can track calls processed on multiple queues.
Measure business targets and conversion rates on a number of industry-standard metrics.
Measure agent activity during the day, both on ACD and non-ACD time, with billable and non-billable times.
Excellent configurable security and privacy, on a queue-by-queue basis. All actions can be assigned or revoked on an user-by-user basis.
QueueMetrics can be easily setup to support a virtual or multi-tenant call-center.
Team leaders...
Very detailed real time call and agent reporting, can be broken down by queue, agent group or location.
See agent status and real-time activity.
Remotely listen to live calls as they are handled.
Watch agent screens remotely through a VNC client.
Real-time wallboard mode using a video projector.
Restricted "Visitor" mode to allow real-time access to external stakeholders, with optional live call or VNC monitoring.
Agents...
Agents can see the calls they're handling and integrate with external CRM apps, optionally passing data gathered from IVR menus or Caller-ID.
Set call status codes (e.g. Sale, Contact?) for all inbound and outbound traffic through the GUI
Log-on, log-off, go on pause and set pause reason codes.
IT Managers...
