How you can increase agent productivity

With Digital Contact Center Platform, you can:

• Give agents a 360-degree view of customers and their journey. The end-to-end case management solution not only helps agents identify cases but also routes each case to the most appropriate agent who can provide guidance and resolve the case. Learn more at Overview of case management.
• Keep a record of customer conversations. Agents and supervisors can view transcripts as required, so that they don't miss details in the conversation. Learn more at View call recordings and transcripts.
• Support customers in their preferred language. Real-time translation enables agents to deliver support in multiple languages while balancing the effectiveness of service delivery against the cost to deliver support. Learn more at Use real-time translation of conversations for agents and customers.
• Use real-time similar cases and knowledge article suggestions that are customized for the current context, enabling agents to resolve customer issues and reduce average call handling time. Learn more at View AI-suggested similar cases and knowledge articles.
• Enable agents to view and share an AI-generated summary of a conversation, so that they can easily collaborate with other agents, supervisors, and subject matter experts. Learn more at View and share auto-summarized conversations.
• Give live agents and supervisors access to relevant real-time and historical insights, visibility into active conversations, and proactive recommendations to maximize their efficiency, improve job satisfaction, and reduce attrition. Learn more at Customer Service Insights.

• Understand your customers' sentiments as they're experiencing them, in real time. Analysis of a customer's satisfaction level can help agents understand how serious an issue is and develop a course of action to resolve that issue as quickly as possible.
