Scalable Workforce Management features to meet your CX goals

Forecasting: Run simulations to calculate a precise forecast for future call volume, agent requirements, and average handle time for any time interval of the day, based on historical data from the ACD.

Scheduling: Our advanced scheduling engine incorporates all call types and other activities to generate staffing schedules that optimize agent availability, work rules, skills, holidays, breaks, service levels, and budgets.

Real-Time Adherence: Compares planned agent activity to actual activities throughout the day and forecasts to actual call volumes, handle times, and other key performance indicators.

Exception Planning: Provides an integrated exception calendar to simplify the scheduling of agent exceptions, such as time off and one-time or recurring training meetings.

Additional WFM Professional Features

Intraday Management: Graphically displays agent schedules that can be changed by dragging and dropping breaks, lunches, and other exceptions. Real-time updates can be made to required and assigned agents instantly, and surpluses and shortages are displayed for designated time periods of the day.

Agent/Supervisor Portal: Allows Agents and Supervisors to communicate schedule changes, quickly and easily. Agents can view their schedules, check their adherence, conduct shift swaps, and request time-off all in one place. Supervisors can process agents’ schedule changes and time-off requests, automated time-off management and schedule alerting to help keep your agents in adherence.

Integrations: Verint Professional WFM software integrates with all major CCI and ACD phone systems, allowing the WFM software and CCI/ACD to talk to each other in real time.
