Benefits: Best-in-class responsiveness, operational efficiency, and optimal performance
Use of Verint enabled the financial services leader to deploy a purposeful, evolving technology stack to ensure best-in-class responsiveness, operational efficiency, and optimal performance. Today, the company is achieving exceptional results, including improvements in average handle time (AHT) from 1,200 to 450 seconds and quality scores from 80.1 to 90 percent. In addition, it has seen a 10-point uplift in customer satisfaction.
During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, when facing contact center shutdowns with only a 12-hour notice, Verint Engagement Orchestration and Verint Workforce Management were critical in enabling the company to quickly transition its agents to work-from-home environments where they could promptly resume servicing customers.
Verint Engagement Orchestration, in concert with Verint Knowledge Management, also helped the company reduce agent training time by making it easier for agents to find the right answers to simple to complex customer inquiries. Given the intricacies of the financial services sector, and the fact that the company’s agents had to navigate a broad portfolio of 55 different products, this proved to be a godsend. Whereas previously it took six weeks to train an agent, new agents can now take calls with minimal supervision in about four to five days, with AHT metrics on par with seasoned agents.
