With speech analytics technology for your business, you’ll have the most powerful metrics on agent-customer interactions to be able to:

  • Identify Agent Deficits and Competencies: Our voice analytics includes quantitative and qualitative data you can use to identify areas where your agents need further training and areas where they excel. Once you know these things, you can personalize the training you provide for your agents.
  • Provide Meaningful Feedback: Once you figure out where an individual agent excels and where they need more training, it enables you to give more precise feedback during the coaching sessions you share with the individual. If one of your agents isn’t meeting your expectations for first call resolution, for instance, our speech analytics technology enables you to retrieve specific call recordings you can use to demonstrate how the person can do better. When an agent has a concrete example of an instance in which they could have performed better, you can provide more meaningful and effective feedback to help them improve.
  • Set Realistic, Achievable Goals: One of the benefits of speech analytics is that this technology helps you to set realistic and achievable goals for individual agents and your whole team. Rather than telling a struggling agent that they need to meet the company’s standard for first call resolution quickly, you can use or voice analytics software system to set up an action plan. This can set the employee up for success and allow you to monitor their progress during a designated period of time. By monitoring the person’s progress, you’ll be able to take further corrective action faster when necessary to help the agent achieve their performance goal(s).
