Digital and Analytics: A Match Made in Heaven
October 27, 2020
There are many great duos in the world. Peanut butter and chocolate, Simon and Garfunkel, Burt and Ernie, R2D2 and C3PO, the list goes on. Great duos are meant to compliment and bring out the best in one another. Together they rise to the occasion and inspire others to do the same. For contact centers, rising to the occasion means adapting to all the ways customers want to interact, while still meeting the same level of service they expect. In the context of the contact center, one of my favorite duos are digital and analytics. The perfect pair giving your customers exceptional service on the channel they want, and the analytics to make sure everything is going according to plan.What makes this duo particularly sleek is their partnership holds the key to the future success of your contact center. In a recent Aberdeen report, 66% of respondents said the reason they are going digital is to improve CX. And that makes total sense, because you want to be where your customers are, on every channel.

While offering an omnichannel solution is important, its also just as vital to be able to analyze all interactions to keep a pulse on customer satisfaction and agent performance.The most reliable information comes directly from the sourceUnderstanding customer sentiment and frustration is just as important when you expand your channels to digital offerings. You are meeting them where they prefer, but you still need to make sure your agents know how to provide the best level of service per channel. Making sense of the unstructured data that is coming through your call center is crucial, especially in the new workforce landscape of moving between brick-and-mortar and working from home. Listening in on a recording or two doesn’t provide the full channel spectrum of the customer experience and doesn’t give you a deep view into what is really happening. This is where interaction analytics play a key role in the success of a digital transformation. Interaction Analytics is Digital’s best friend Interaction Analytics is a true friend to your digital channel offerings because it turns extensive unstructured data into a holistic view of the customer experience.
