Metrics That Will Help Optimize Your Call Center
For any type of business, especially call centers, performance management is an important part of managing its employees, goals and objectives that keeps track of their key performance indicators (KPI) each day.
To help organizations with this KPI initiative Monet Software, a provider of call center solutions, has created Monet Metrics, a new standard of transforming call center performance management from a “reactive to a proactive approach,” as it refers to it in its whitepaper titled ‘Monet Metrics - Performance Management and Agent Analytics.’
Since most of the problems and expenses in call centers are related to staffing, even the smallest improvements in agent productivity and cost management can make a difference. With Monet Metrics in place, supervisors can identify trends and potential issues that might have gone unseen, while also delivering business insights to improve overall performance.
Here are the top three ways that Monet Metris can help optimize a call center:
1. Drive collaborative decisions for improved agent motivation and performance
The metric solution automatically makes it easy for agents, supervisors and anyone a part of the company to participate in the process with its benchmarking capabilities, which allows them to set goals and align all levels of the company. Managers can set up real-time alerts that can be sent to supervisors when goals aren’t met. It also motivates employees to manage their own performance and take actions based on performance KPI’s.
2. Discover new ways to improve productivity, service quality and customer satisfaction
The metric solution also automatically gathers and presents real-time and past performance data for the agent, group and center levels. KPI and scheduling information can be sent to employees through Web-based consolidated reporting; giving them the information they need to do a better job. This creates more free time for supervisors and managers to spend with agents.
3. Flexible and cost-effective solution in the cloud
Monet Metrics is integrated with Monet’s Workforce Optimization suite and delivers agent analytics and scorecard capabilities to improve your call center performance. The call center management software is cloud-based, which mean that it has no upfront cost or hardware that needs to be installed.
Monet Metric’s even allows users to enjoy the benefits of affordable monthly fees, a fast set-up, complete functionality, IT friendly management capabilities and proven results, like lower agent turnover. To learn more about KPI solutions and how they can help the call center, visit Monet Metric.
