Contact and call centres sit at the heart of customer services for many businesses and are relied upon during all hours of the day. In the past, this hub of communication was referred to as the \u2018call centre\u2019 as they only offered support via phone. Today, we prefer to call them \u2018contact centres\u2019 as the best\u00a0call centre software now operates across all<\/em> customer communication channels \u2014 from phone to email, webchat, and SMS services \u2014 by incorporating them in a single consolidated interface.<\/p>\n

Customers and clients expect to be able to contact a business at the time that suits them in the way they prefer. You may think this will put a strain on your staff but if you have the right professional call centre capabilities in place, your business will be moving with the times and able to handle all customer interactions with ease. Read on to learn about the unique, omnichannel call and contact centre features\u00a0from Microtalk and how they can boost the productivity of your business by over 25%.<\/p>\n

Direct Inward Dialing Numbers<\/u><\/p>\n

Direct Inward Dialing numbers, or DIDs,\u00a0allow customers to\u00a0bypass the main reception line and contact a particular person or department\u00a0directly. The goal is to create a better caller experience and with DIDs there is no need to wait for a receptionist, automated phone menu,\u00a0or get frustrated and wonder why you can\u2019t just contact the person you are trying to reach directly. This is just one of several core advantages for businesses that implement\u00a0call centre software.<\/p>\n

Unparalleled Productivity Features and Detailed Analytics<\/u><\/p>\n

Our contact centre software allows you to view agent performance, for example tracking and recording conversations between the agent and customer to gain deeper insights and analyse performance for training purposes.<\/p>\n

Wallboard M<\/u>anager <\/u>Reports<\/u><\/p>\n

You can also track overall performance and caller trends by using wallboards. Wallboards display information to your entire workforce \u2014 from agents to supervisors and managers \u2014 via a large television screen, desktop PC, or tablet. This can information can include anything, like current trends or sales targets, and all this data generated by your contact centre is converted into information that can be understood at a glance. Wallboards help your staff stay motivated, informed and carry out their work efficiently.<\/p>\n

Predictive Dialling<\/u><\/p>\n

This feature uses call metrics to speed up the dialling process and aid your employees as they make outbound calls. If one of your employees is given a list of telephone numbers, it\u2019d take a long time to dial each number and time would also be wasted when customers didn\u2019t pick up. Introducing predictive dialling: it automatically dials from a list of telephone numbers, detects connections and passes the call to an available employee. Your call centre will have a far higher calling rate in no time!<\/p>\n

CRM <\/u>Integration<\/u><\/p>\n

CRM stands for Customer Relationship Management. What does that mean? Well, it\u2019s everything to your customers. CRM Integration makes it possible for a business to communicate with their customers using the channel of their choice; that means by phone, text, chat, email or social media (all from Facebook to Twitter).<\/p>\n

Access <\/u>Omnichannel<\/u> C<\/u>ommunications<\/u> With Microtalk<\/u><\/p>\n

An omnichannel contact centre allows customers to seamlessly switch back and forth across communication channels when seeking support. As Microtalk is an omnichannel call and contact centre, we provide all the options listed above for perfect CRM Integration.<\/p>\n

This freedom works for your agents too, as Microtalk\u2019s contact centre services allow your business to manage communications anytime, anywhere. For example, our cloud-based virtual\u00a0call centre software\u00a0requires no hardware or IT technicians as it is simply downloaded from a browser or as a\u00a0mobile app\u00a0(or both) and installed on existing electronic devices such as smartphones and laptops. Therefore, on-site maintenance is obsolete and you can forward all customer communications to mobile numbers and landlines to manage business calls in the office, when working from home, or employ the services of a third-party call centre. As well as his also enabling 24\/7 customer service and multilingual support, this also has the added benefit of lower installation and operating costs!<\/p>\n

Integrate Your Call Centre with Other Microtalk Products<\/u><\/p>\n

Virtual call center software\u00a0functions through VoIP technology. With VoIP infrastructure, calls are transmitted over an internet connection to suitable electronic devices like smartphones, laptops, tablets, and VoIP hard phones. This means our contact centre<\/a> services can be easily integrated with your existing Cloud PBX and fibre internet from Microtalk.<\/p>\n
