Odigo Quality Monitoring: An enhanced solution for contact centre excellence

In a world where consumers have increasingly high expectations, customer experience has become a key differentiator for businesses. 

2024 UKCSI data revealed that 31% of customers are willing to pay more for excellent service, while 30% cited poor customer service as the reason they stopped using a company. Not only does good service improve loyalty, but bad service can push customers away. To stand out and succeed, quality monitoring (QM) tools and strategies are instrumental in ensuring service quality and adapting to feedback. 

However, traditional QM tools quickly show their limitations. They often rely on time-consuming, manual processes that don’t provide a representative assessment of agents. In response, quality monitoring enhanced by recent technological innovations, brings real added value by introducing powerful automation and data analysis tools. 

Navigating the challenges of high-quality insights at scale

In a contact centre, quality monitoring is no longer just about listening to isolated calls; it’s about gaining insights that drive real change. With this focus, quality monitoring itself is subject to a range of KPIs including: 

• Productivity 

• Customer satisfaction (CSAT) 

• Employee satisfaction 

According to LinkedIn’s 2024 Workforce Development Report, 7 in 10 people say learning improves their sense of connection to their organisation. This link between continuous development and agent retention can be a vital lever for reducing the often high turnover in contact centres. 

However, traditional quality monitoring faces several challenges: 

• Time-consuming processes: Standard methods, like randomly reviewing calls, taking manual notes, and writing agent-specific reports, require significant supervisor time. 
• Outdated tools: Many QM systems lack flexibility, making it hard to handle data, track interactions, and provide real-time feedback to agents. The absence of integrated reporting tools or alerts further reduces overall efficiency. 
• Unrepresentative evaluations: Listening to a small sample of calls may not capture the full picture, leading to agent frustration and affecting their engagement and loyalty. 

These obstacles can lead to dissatisfaction among agents, who feel undervalued, and customers, whose needs may not be fully addressed. A quality monitoring solution enhanced with innovative technologies, like Odigo’s, provides concrete solutions to these problems.  

When technological innovation powers performance

Odigo Quality Monitoring stands out by transforming QM into a proactive tool that saves time and offers unmatched accuracy: 

• Automatic transcription: Voice conversations are instantly converted into text, allowing supervisors to read exchanges without needing to listen to each interaction. 
• Call summaries: AI-generated call summaries provide an overview of interactions, helping supervisors quickly assess whether an evaluation is needed. The solution can be instructed to highlight specific issues or provide a brief summary for lower priority topics. 
• In-depth analysis through NLU: Natural language understanding (NLU) identifies sentiments, detects pauses, and classifies calls by topic, enabling supervisors to pinpoint positive behaviours or recurring issues impacting customers or agents. 
• Automated evaluation forms: Thanks to automated questions, managers can be assisted by recommendations when assessing a call.  
• Call categorisation: Using AI questions or prompts, calls can be automatically categorised to detect and measure topics of interest, such as rate increases, and also target calls for evaluation according to the organisation’s issues.     

Unlocking potential with Odigo’s advanced capabilities

Odigo Quality Monitoring offers innovative features designed to streamline supervisors’ work and boost agent engagement: 

• Centralised interaction management: Odigo’s omnichannel platform centralises all interactions for easy access and analysis, allowing evaluators to share recordings and facilitate team discussions. 
• Customisable evaluation forms: Industry-specific evaluation criteria enhance relevance and improve agent buy-in. 
• Feedback and coaching tools: The platform enables supervisors to share evaluations directly with agents, providing comments and annotations for continuous performance improvement. 
• Calibration tools: To ensure fair evaluations across teams, supervisors can use calibration tools to standardise QM, achieving consistent evaluation across departments or even the entire organisation.

Benefits for teams and businesses

• Supervisors benefit from significant time savings on call evaluations, they can better target high-added-value interactions that need to be evaluated and quickly analyse conversations. To do this, they want tools that are easy to adopt.
