Technology-Enabled QA: Leveraging Tools for Success

Technology in today's digital times is a game-changer that improves the quality assurance of a contact center. Advanced call recording software, speech analytics, and QA solutions with AI capabilities will automate such evaluation processes-accurate and less time-consuming-which provide valuable intelligence on customer interaction that might have been missed earlier.

Call recording software is essential. It allows us to go back and analyze interactions down to even minute subtleties of the interaction. We can pinpoint with loads of accuracy what agents are doing well and not so well. It gives you a verbatim account of exactly what transpired on each call, which is helpful with coaching and dispute resolution.

We use speech analytics, which enables us to analyze the conversations in real time or after the actual call. Such technology can even determine trends of key phrases or detect the emotional tone of conversations. These insights help us understand the sentiment of customers and identify the needs of our training quickly.

And then, of course, there are the AI-powered QA solutions that have taken the QA process and turned it completely on its head. AI will automatically evaluate a large volume of calls against pre-set criteria, flagging those that need attention and highlighting patterns that might impact customer satisfaction. This enables us to focus on the most critical interactions and optimize agent performance more effectively.

Technology supports real-time feedback from team leaders to enable immediate coaching and guidance of agents while calls are in session, which improves performance and enhances the customer experience at that very moment.
