Can you guess a central point from which all omnichannel customer journeys and customer support activities start? 

If your answer is call centers, you are correct!

Call centers originated in the 1960s. 

It was also the era when businesses started building trust in these units to ensure potential prospects' smooth transition to successful customers. 

But the journey of call centers only improved over time as companies started comprehending the importance of connecting with clients. Over the years, clients began to appreciate a good customer experience in their buying journey. 

However, with increasing demands for call center agents, managers and leaders had to adapt to this versatile market. Also, call center conversations are a treasure of informative data that can create actionable insights. These insights, in turn, can kickstart many new opportunities that could boost sales. 

Hence, an incredible innovation was introduced- conversation intelligence software to save the day. 

Convin leveraged the conversation intelligence technology to build an automated contact center solution for agents, managers and leaders.

Let us understand each product capability one by one -

  1. Automated Quality Assurance, a.k.a Auto QA
    Research says that out of all the call center calls, only 1.4%-1.8% go through QA. Moreover, manual quality auditing is time-consuming and can burn a hole in your pocket. 
    On average, the QA team single-handedly takes care of more than 20-30 calls a day. So, the total number of calls that happen throughout the day can be strenuous to undergo QA. 
    Manual auditing has its cons–It encourages random and smaller sampling. The QA score is human-driven, biased, inaccurate, and inconsistent. 
    To save time, cost, and effort, scaling companies should invest in 100% call monitoring. Convin brings automated quality assurance to the table.
