Limitations of Traditional Quality Assurance
Traditional Contact Centre QA has reached the end of a good long life. Traditionally: QA involved random selection of recorded callsPeriodically evaluate and score a small number of calls for each agent. Objective: is to confirm that agents exhibit desirable behaviours, viz. did you say Yes Sir, No Sir, 3 Bags full SirNo deviating from prescribed internal rules, scripts and policies

What is Desktop Screen Analytics?Screen analytics introduces automated call categorization and prioritization according to each calls business value
You can pull information directly from your screens, and tag into recordings e.g.Customer ID Number/Case ID Number/Account ID/Sales order value
So What does this do for QA?Data is inputted into the Business Rules Engine and can be used to e.g. :Determine selection criteria for quality monitoring, selection of the most appropriate evaluation form
Can select specific types of contacts for monitoring e.g. :monitor calls with a high number of holds or longer hold time calls with a high number of transfers
As Desktop Screen Analytics mechanisms gather the data, the new QA system can automatically classify your most important calls so that you can focus your evaluation and analysis efforts on higher-value calls.
