Self Monitoring- Voice

Updated 

A Self-Monitoring Voice Report is typically used to track and assess the performance of voice interactions of the agents. It allows individuals or teams to monitor their own performance based on predefined metrics or KPIs. In contexts like contact centers, a self-monitoring voice report can help agents identify areas for improvement in their communication skills and address any challenges they may face in real-time.

Scenarios in which Self Monitoring-Voice Reports are used

  • Agents can use the self-monitoring voice report to assess their own performance, identify areas for improvement (e.g., call handling time, Calls offered, abandoned calls and pending ACW count , etc), and track progress over time.

  • Agents can use these reports to track daily targets, monitor login adherence, and review pending ACWs (After Call Work) and calls.

Dashboard Sections  

Let’s deep dive into the dashboard sections: 

  • Performance Overview: The Performance Overview tab provides a concise summary of key metrics, offering a quick snapshot of an agent's overall performance.

  • Inbound: The Inbound Call Summary is a report provides an overview of key metrics related to inbound calls handled by agents. This summary helps assess the efficiency and effectiveness of agents in handling inbound customer inquiries and can be used to identify trends and areas for improvement or to measure overall team performance.

  • Outbound: An Outbound Call Summary provides an overview of all outbound calls made by agents, including manual call summary, outbound call summary and dialler call summary.

  • Raw Data: The raw data report provides detailed insights into agent performance across all metrics of the Self-Monitoring Voice Report.

Let's have a look at the metrics:

The Performance Overview Report is divided into 2 different types of reports:

  • Performance Overview: The Performance Overview Report offers a comprehensive summary of key call metrics, including the total number of calls offered, calls connected, abandoned calls, and after-call work (ACW) count.

  • Call Time Summary: The Call Summary Report offers an in-depth analysis of key performance metrics, highlighting the average handling time, preview time, outbound and inbound ring times, talk time, ring time, and after-call work (ACW) time. This comprehensive overview allows for a clear understanding of call flow and agent efficiency.
