Why do you require a Cloud Contact Center?

Cloud Contact Center comprises tools and services which make communication easy and quick in today’s digital world. Until the advancement in technology, the traditional contact center infrastructure was expensive, requiring maintaining the redundant hardware. However, modern and advanced alternative Cloud Contact Center software has transformed the call center infrastructure more powerful and affordable. 

  • Cost-Efficient: Unlike before, companies using cloud hosting do not have to update software systems, buy hardware, or fear hacking attempts. Cloud provider operates all the required actions while the organization focuses on providing exceptional customer service. 
  • Less Maintenance: It requires minimal investment to install a cloud infrastructure with no compromise on the quality of work. No more need to hire a system administrator to manage the hardware and maintain the program and software. 
  • Flexible Work Lifestyle: Cloud Contact Center allows agents to log in and work from any location. Any agent with a computer and a good internet connection can work from anywhere in the world. As a result, the freedom and flexibility provide agents the perk to eliminate commuting. 
  • Scalable Operation: Cloud contact center can increase or decrease agents as per requirement and pay only for the shifts/work-days they are hired. Companies often have fluctuation in the volume of calls and workload, leading to ebb and flow in staffing requirements. 
  • Streamline Service: With all the easy-to-access tools and features provided by Cloud, a Contact Center can more efficiently improve customer experience. It works both ways, enhancing the service provided for the customers while also supporting and empowering the agents.

What features to consider while choosing a Cloud Contact Center Provider?

Moving on from traditional infrastructure to a cloud-based contact center infrastructure promises great reliability, cost-efficiency, and multiple functionalities. However, you should be well aware of what features/requirements to look for when selecting a cloud provider.

  • Cloud SLA Uptime: When negotiating an agreement with a cloud SLA it is advised to ensure that the contact center provides a reliable quality connection. Additionally, it is important to clarify the uptimes. For example;
    • Three nines, 99.9% uptime implies 9 hours of disconnection per year.
    • Five nines, 99.999% uptime translates to roughly five minutes of outage annually. 

Voxco’s Contact center solution ensures minimal downtime. 

  • IVR: Cloud contact center software that allows optimizing greetings, customize pre-recorded messages in multiple languages and build options in the menu gives better service to the customers. Continuously adapting your IVR to the needs of customers will help the company in their relationships with their customers. Check out Voxco’s IVR Survey Software. 
  • Add Communication Channels: As per research, nine out of ten customers choose to use text messages to communicate with a company rather than a phone call. With Cloud API you should be able to add other channels to the pre-loaded channels. For example, Web-based chat can connect a customer directly to your agents via a website/app.
  • Web Interface: Enabling agents to receive calls or make calls from the browser or the CRM directly is one factor of Web Interface. WebRTC allows video or voice communication inside the website/web page to work. There is no requirement to install plugins in the browsers. You can add agents in a new region without needing any local hardware or spending capital expense.
  • Omnichannel Routing: This feature should allow your agents to direct customer queries through a range of service channels. Omnichannel routing ensures that the task is directed to the skilled agent. 
  • Tracking Calls: Cloud software must have the feature of tracking incoming and outgoing calls. In Addition to keeping track of the volume of calls, it should also be able to measure the performance of the agent and compile analytics.
