Elevate your contact center operations by gaining insight into real-time customer data, enabling faster, more efficient service delivery and enhancing the overall customer experience.

Reduce customer wait times

Supervisors can utilize Workforce Management (WFM) forecasting capabilities to identify seasonality and other trends to achieve optimal agent coverage. Sufficient staffing ensures that customers don’t face long wait times.

Save on staffing costs

Meet service levels and key performance indicators (KPIs) while ensuring you don’t go over budget on staffing during non-peak times of the year. WFM solutions create agent schedules that combine forecast results and desired service levels to ensure you have the optimal level of staff.

Eliminate the manual effort of building schedules. WFM automatically generates agent schedules based on availability, skill sets, and forecasted needs, allowing supervisors to focus on day-to-day contact center operations.

Avoid agent burnout

Reduce agent fatigue by allowing them to request time away from the queue, either retroactively or proactively, without impacting adherence scores. As a result, agents can take breaks and are able to provide better client experiences.

Workforce Management (WFM) refers to the process of forecasting, scheduling, and monitoring agent performance to ensure the right number of agents are available at the right times. When integrated with ice Contact Center, WFM tools optimize agent productivity, reduce customer wait times, and help manage operational costs effectively.

The WFM tool uses forecasting capabilities to identify patterns in customer interaction volumes, such as seasonality or peak times. This enables supervisors to schedule sufficient agents to handle interactions efficiently, reducing customer wait times and improving the overall customer experience.
