eOn Communications
Interaction Management for the Customer Era
The traditional call center’s voice-only capability has now expanded to include alternative, multi-media channels, such as e-mail and real-time Web agents, to meet customers’ ever-growing communication needs. According to Gartner Group, by 2003, more than 45 percent of all contact center traffic will be initiated by means other than a telephone. And by 2005, 70 percent of call centers will support integrated live Web contacts and/or e-mail response management systems for their
telephone-based agents.
While there is an industry consensus of where the future of contact centers is going, there are new challenges as companies integrate media. There are specific steps that companies need to follow to best integrate multi-media channels, and there are also specific issues that companies must consider when working with a multi-media contact center solution vendor.
In order to determine how best to integrate multi-media channels in your contact center, you should first determine how your company will manage the three phases of automatic contact distribution. These phases include determining how your company: wants customers to contact them, wants to treat customers, and wants to handle customer data.
eOn’s eQueue® Multi-Media Contact Center Solution offers a comprehensive and unified solution for customer interaction management. The universal or single queue approach enables contact centers to interact more efficiently with their customers regardless of the media. The eQueue’s single queue technology, open architecture and suite of comprehensive applications simplifies the technical, training and supervisory burdens of multi-media contact management, while enabling agents to engage
in more sophisticated interactions that enhance customer satisfaction.
The benefits of using eQueue’s proven and reliable platform are improved customer service and loyalty, increased agent productivity and lowered cost of ownership. The eQueue provides additional benefits that multi-media contact centers can achieve with a unified workspace management approach, including reduced administrative burdens, lowered operating costs and improved contact center performance.
eOn’s Supervisor WorkSpace, the management and reporting tool for the eQueue solution, provides contact center managers with a flexible set of monitoring, reporting and administrative capabilities necessary to ensure all forms of customer contacts are managed efficiently and at the highest service levels. With its package of standard reports, Supervisor WorkSpace allows contact center managers to effectively track agent performance and customer activity. Supervisor WorkSpace also
provides real-time management displays and alerts, and can be configured for quick and easy identification of customer contact patterns and trends. Additionally, the eQueue provides all the agent productivity tools needed in a contact center through an intuitive graphical user interface, displaying each customer interaction as an icon on the toolbar, complete with unique identifiers and visual alerts. Agents have easy access to the customer’s contact history, and can view the data from
all interactions that have occurred with a particular customer and follow the customer interaction through resolution, whether transferred or put on hold or placed in a follow-up status. Based on routing logic, the agent is also presented with a knowledge base to assist with each interaction.
The eQueue applications include multi-media routing of all interaction types with robust ACD functionality, complete telephony capability, e-mail, Web chat, integrated voice response, voice mail with unified messaging, fax messaging, quality assurance recording and a complete range of desktop devices and applications.
