Verint brings all of those crucial features to the table with its technology, as well as fantastic level of security and compliance, critical in the current marketplace.
Notably, Fortlage also acknowledges the ability to leverage the comprehensive Verint Workforce Engagement technology suite as an all-in-one package, rather than having to use multiple solutions from different vendors has been highly beneficial.
According to the Alorica team, it’s fantastic to be able to get information from one system in their workforce engagement stack to another quickly and seamlessly. Verint’s technology has delivered a simple and comprehensive solution for addressing many of the common problems the team would have otherwise faced when attempting to ensure ongoing productivity.
Achieving Incredible Insights with Verint
While the Verint Workforce Engagement tools assist Alorica with achieving a higher level of productivity and efficiency in its workforce, the enhanced speech analytics tools provide their own distinctive set of benefits.
The state-of-the-art speech analytics solutions means clients leveraging Alorica’s technology can easily address customer needs and resolve inquiries faster, often on the first call. Additionally, Alorica’s analytics solution also allows the company’s clients to reduce costs and call volumes. Clients are able to start identifying the self-service tools and operational processes no longer delivering the right results for the team.
Alorica clients are even able to significantly reduce churn, by proactively engaging with potential detractors in the customer service roadmap. The speech analytics service allows users to easily identify common calling and speech patterns which may indicate the potential for churn.
According to Fortlage, Verint speech analytics means the company can easily transcribe things for clients that only happened a few hours ago. This makes it easier to monitor trends more closely as they occur throughout the day, almost in real-time. Through Verint’s technology, Alorica can help clients to discover insights which lead to stronger customer relationships.
Verint also helped Alorica to simplify and enhance customer engagement. According to Fortlage, the business involves a great deal of complexity, particularly with so many different customers, activities, technologies, and rules to keep track of. Verint allows the company to keep things simple and support growth in a way that supports consistent growth.
Monitoring and Boosting Performance Over Time
With help and guidance from Verint’s incredible technology, Alorica is now able to achieve more than ever before in the CX outsourcing world. Alorica can now analyse customer-agent phone conversations on a deeper scale, unmatched by manual processes and other strategies for collecting feedback, like surveys.
The BPO can also share real-time intelligence with clients, helping them to make informed decisions, enhance their experiences, simplify engagement, and more clearly understand what customers want, think, feel and need on a regular basis.
As an added benefit, Verint’s unified technology solution ensures the company can quickly detect emerging customer trends, and understand the root causes of complaints. The team can even measure satisfaction more effectively, and keep a closer eye on crucial metrics highlighting agent performance.
With a much greater focus on data-driven insights throughout the customer journey, Alorica can use the metrics and measurements in its toolkit to ensure customer experience and engagement always come first.
