Although many companies are now migrating their call centers over to IP-based, all-in-one software platforms - which have all of the core call center applications, including reporting, tightly integrated on a single platform - there's still plenty of companies out there that are planning to get more value out of their legacy call center systems before they make the leap to an all-in-one solution.

 

The challenge for these companies, however, is how to get better reporting out of their legacy systems so that they can get a more detailed, unified view into their call center operations. What's more, many companies are now realizing that they can provide more actionable intelligence to their call center managers and agents if only they could tie together all these disparate silos of data and package the data into comprehensive reports that can be delivered in near real time. This data can be invaluable for driving agent performance in the call center - and also for making timely business decisions based on changing conditions. In other words, it makes the entire call center operation more "reactive."

 

To accomplish this, companies with legacy call center systems need reporting solutions that enable them to tie together all the data coming out of these disparate systems and package it into wide variety of reports. By taking pertinent data to arrive at call center metrics and statistics and delivering it to agents via LCD flat panels, wallboards or the desktop, companies can positively influence agent performance and motivate agents to meet call center goals. In addition, call center managers and supervisors can view "high level" views on call center performance via Web-based dashboards - plus they can drill down and get details about individual agent performance.

 

Effective call center reporting also means having the ability to send real time alerts to call center managers and supervisors, upper management, and sometimes the agents themselves in the event a certain threshold has been met or some other event has occurred.
