Queues provide a way to organize and differentiate incoming customer requests. This is helpful for UNIVERGE BLUE® ENGAGE representatives (Agents) and managers to track, prioritize, and ensure efficient delivery of customer service.
Queues can also guarantee that each request is effectively handled by the most qualifed representative avaiable. This is achieved by assigning queues only to representatives who are trained in each specific area. For this reason, a queue can also be called a skill. The term skills-based routing refers to the automatic distribution of incoming requests to the most suitable representative.
When discussing queues, request and customer request refer to a person who is calling, emailing, or initiating a chat with your UNIVERGE BLUE® ENGAGE.
There are three different types of queues available in UNIVERGE BLUE® ENGAGE that customers can use to reach Agents: Voice, Chat, and Email. Agents can receive and respond to the incoming requests using the Call Center Agent (CCA) or WebAgent applications.
Another major benefit with using Queues is the added reporting capabilities, which can provide insight into customer needs and calling behaviors. These metrics can assist in the better allocation of resources and management of your UNIVERGE BLUE® ENGAGE.
