In sectors such as Banking, Insurance, and Financial Services, where the stakes involve high-value customers and transactions, customer retention due to service issues is non-negotiable.
What Sets You Apart?
In a rapidly commoditizing landscape, the standout factor lies in the customer experience you provide. This experience serves as the linchpin for sustaining revenue streams and securing a leadership role.

The Heart of Customer Experience
Central to your customer experience strategy is your contact center. Understanding how this hub propels business growth and maintains customer satisfaction is paramount.
Modern contact centers offer myriad channels for customer interaction: email, phone (voice and IVR), chat, social media, website, and applications. With agents dispersed across various locations and offerings tailored to specific locations, voluminous data is generated daily. How do you extract meaningful insights from this data?
Intelligent Reporting and Analytics
To gauge the customer experience you deliver, an intelligent reporting solution is indispensable. Reports should be intuitive, easily comprehensible, and actionable.
Analytics complements reporting, making it actionable. This symbiotic relationship fuels the cycle of contact center reporting and analytics.
Consider this Cycle:
Reports highlight a drop in first-call resolutions. What’s the next step?
Analytics reveals that a cumbersome app checkout interface prompts customers to call the contact center or abandon transactions. Armed with insights, you redesign the interface, addressing the issue.
Subsequently, reports assess whether the issue persists or has improved. This ongoing loop thrives on customer feedback.
While reports unearth challenges, analytics furnishes insights for remediation.
Obstacles in Contact Center Reporting Systems
Two core challenges impede effective reporting within contact centers:
1. Standard Out-of-the-Box Reports:
Existing contact center systems provide basic integrated reports, like IVR, Workforce Management, and ACD. These reports are rudimentary and lack actionable insights. They fail to address organizational specifics. The objective should extend beyond mere data presentation, delving into the underlying reasons.
2. Data Silos:
With various channels generating massive data, silos emerge. Integrated reports from individual channels offer a limited view. Uniting these channels provides a holistic customer perspective. Analytics then transforms collated data into actionable insights.
Empowering Robust Reporting and Analytics
A successful contact center project hinges on visionary planning. Consider key questions:
– What role does the contact center serve?
– How does every interaction enhance the customer experience?
– Are you proactive in addressing customer needs?
– Do customer experience scores consistently improve?
By placing customer experience at the forefront, objectives for reports emerge. Subsequently, inquire:
– Who needs reports and why?
– How can you extract customer insights from various channels without separate reports?
– What level of intuitiveness should reports possess?
– Should suggestions be included based on report information?
– Is cumulative customer data needed?
– How should reports be viewed and distributed?
While these queries aren’t exhaustive, they guide report development. Once answered, the appropriate reporting and analytics engine can be chosen to fulfill business requirements.
Notably, every report entry should elevate BFSI customer experience and revenue outcomes.
A Case Example: Saving Hours
Consider a scenario where our customer faced a data influx of 3 million entries monthly, generating around 300,000 rows daily. Amid this data deluge, actionable insights were elusive.
Leveraging our platform’s analytics, we transformed this data into actionable insights, sparing our customer hours each week.
Our reports, provided in. CSV format, enable easy data manipulation. A dashboard view consolidates pertinent information for swift action.
Reports and analytics form the core of BFSI contact centers. Ignoring their monitoring and measurement jeopardizes potential returns.
Studies show that contact center managers spend about 30% of their time assembling reports for management review. Automation can alleviate this.
Imagine if your data insights were automated through a dashboard. This accelerates improvement of automated reports, fortifying customer experience.
Choose reporting and analytics technology carefully – it’s the bedrock for enhancing customer experiences in every contact center.
