Call Routing Solutions

Toshiba have developed a range of robust telecommunication solutions that are designed
to perfectly connect with your individual business and specific telecommunication
needs.
In today's competitive business environment, the ability to manage customer and
internal voice communications effectively is increasingly critical. Understandably,
callers want their calls to be answered quickly and dealt with efficiently. They
do not want to be held in a long queue, and then passed from department to department
before a question is answered. For this reason, Toshiba has a range of call routing
solutions that are designed to ensure that all inbound calls are handled as efficiently
as possible.

Toshiba Call Routing
Call Routing Solutions
For organisations with high call volumes, or those needing a sophisticated approach
to call handling, Toshiba's call routing solutions allow a customer contact centre
with three or four agents, or as many as 350 agents to be quickly and efficiently
implemented using the most sophisticated call management techniques:
- Flexible Call Routing
Route calls based on caller ID, DDI number dialled, balanced call count, preferred
agent treatment, agent priority, or time-of-day, day-of-week or, with Call Router,
day-of-year, providing maximum flexibility.
- Intelligent Queue Announcements
If all agents are busy, calls to an ACD group are queued to wait for the first available
agent in the group. While waiting, callers hear programmed intelligent announcements
or music, encouraging them to remain on hold. This gives you an opportunity to provide
valuable information to callers while they're waiting.
- Interactive Call Announcements
When a customer calls into the organisation, there is an opportunity to collect
important information before the call is put through. This saves both the customer
and agent time, increasing efficiency and customer satisfaction.
- Priority Queuing
Enabling higher-priority calls to be answered sooner than low-priority calls, ACD
calls can be tagged with a priority number before they are placed into the ACD group
queue. The priority number assigned to the call then determines where the call is
placed in the queue.
- Multiple Call Queues
You can set up multiple call queues for differing services or sales promotions,
each with an individual announcement. If callers are handled more efficiently and
personally, this improves customer satisfaction which can in turn lead to increased
loyalty and revenue.
- Call Back Service
Rather than making callers wait in a queue, a call back service can be offered that
allows them to leave a request to be called back. Call backs can be prioritised
in order of importance to the business, urgency or convenience, and agents can ensure
that they are fully armed with background information to help them answer the query
quickly and efficiently.
- Preferred Agent - Skill-based Call Routing
Using CLI, it is possible to route callers to agents who they have dealt with before.
If that agent is busy or unavailable, the caller can be held in a queue until the
chosen agent is free, routed to another agent, or leave a message to be called back.
Calls can also be routed to agents based on their skills and knowledge to ensure
that the customer's query is answered as effectively as possible.
Uniform Call Distribution (UCD)
Built
into each Strata CIX communication platform, Uniform Call Distribution (UCD) allows
you to control how calls are received into your organisation. Designed to evenly
distribute calls amongst your call handling staff, this reduces the amount of time
a caller has to wait before they can speak to someone, and helps maintain high customer
service levels.
Key benefits of Uniform Call Distribution (UCD)
- Reduces hold time, increasing responsiveness and helps maintain customer satisfaction.
- Provides even distribution of calls, ensuring that the workload is allocated fairly
amongst call handling staff.
- Ensures customer service levels are maintained by overflowing calls to other departments
during busy periods.
Strata ACD
Strata ACD is a server based system designed for our Strata CIX platforms, offering
full contact centre functionality for up to 360 agents and 180 ACD groups. With
Strata ACD you can purchase the products you want when you need them and need not
pay for functionality that you will not use.
Flexibility of operation means that any group of Strata CIX system users can be
nominated as ACD agents. Agents do not have to use a specific extension for ACD
operation, but can use any extension of the Strata CIX system. The flexibility of
the system also means that agents do not have to be seated together, but can work
in small offices or even remotely from home.
Key benefits of Strata ACD
- Improved customer service through quick and efficient answering of all inbound calls.
- Prioritisation of calls, so that existing or high value customers are placed at
the head of the queue.
- Multiple ACD queues, each with individual programmed announcement for differing
services or sales promotions etc.
- Intelligent announcements keep callers informed of their place in the queue, and
estimated time to answer.
- Advanced call routing allows callers to be put through to a specific agent they
have dealt with before.
- Combine with Interactive Voice Response (IVR) to prompt callers for information
to direct their calls to the most appropriate agent.
- Use TASKE® reporting to fully monitor performance and provide vital information
for training and continuous improvement.
Interactive Voice Response (IVR)
IVR allows you to provide callers with a 'self-service option', which can make a
dramatic difference to the way a call is handled, and how your company is perceived.
Prompting callers for information that can be used to direct their call, IVR technology
allows you to handle enquiries without human intervention. Using the telephone keypad
to select options, or providing spoken responses to recorded prompts, IVR can handle
a variety of interactions with the customer, either providing the information they
require directly, or helping to prepare a call centre operator by obtaining valuable
information before the caller is actually routed through.
Key benefits of Interactive Voice Response (IVR)
- Allows callers to retrieve information directly, without the need for human intervention.
- Increased employee productivity by ensuring the agent is armed with as much information
as possible before the call is routed through.
- Prioritisation of calls based on the information callers have provided. For example,
airlines can place callers with a frequent flyer number, or those in business class
at the front of the queue to be answered by an agent.
- Calls can also be placed into queues with specific announcements based on the answers
they have given, ensuring the information they hear while waiting is appropriate
to their requirements.
Call Router
Call Router will enable you to route enquiries to the most appropriate person, governed
by staff availability, workload, staff with particular language or subject skills,
or specific types of customer. Advanced call routing also allows the Caller Line
Identity (CLI) signal to be recognised, and the call automatically routed to the
correct department.
Call Router can even 'learn' information from a customer's calls and, in conjunction
with Strata ACD and NetPhone for Strata, can enable callers to guide themselves
to the appropriate contact point.
Key benefits of Call Router
- Improved customer service through effective and efficient resolution of customer's
enquiries.
- Increases customer satisfaction through more calls being answered and resolved by
the correct department, first time.
- Improved accuracy and efficiency through 'learning' information from a customer's
call.
Toshiba's modular approach to call routing enables you to select the appropriate
solution to meet your individual requirements. All our contact centre products are
designed to work together seamlessly to create the perfect experience for your customers.
Whether you want to queue and route calls, integrate your back-office systems, provide
customised announcements or self service options, or simply give your agents tools
to automate processes and increase productivity, Toshiba can help.
