Clear communication
How you schedule is a major factor in your agents’ overall experience. Doing so in a way that takes into account agent needs and professional skills, as well as allowing them to easily request changes and swap shifts will make for a better working environment, better performance, and ultimately, improve agent retention.
Agents can access their schedules directly on LiveVox’s Configurable Agent Desktop along with other key information that helps facilitate a better customer and agent experience.
One less thing to worry about
Scheduling is a necessity, but ultimately the less time you have to spend doing it the better. By replacing manual processes with an automated approach that allows you to create schedules both more efficiently and more effectively, you can free up time to concentrate on other strategic priorities.
In addition to agent scheduling, LiveVox’s CRM capability can help you automate other contact center processes with trigger-based event creation.
