A call center depends on the performance of its agents and employees. Since the pace of work and the speed of a call center are time sensitive, it is important that vital metrics are continuously measured to assess the performance of agents as a whole.

The call center wall panel can fit precisely into this picture. Displayed on one or more screens on call center walls, supervisor or agent screens, call center wall panels visualize real-time call statistics, KPI information and other useful metrics to keep agents and supervisors on track and aligned with their call center goals and milestones.

When combined with the “right” KPIs and information, Call center wall panels can have a variety of positive impacts:

• Motivate agents – By transmitting real-time KPIs to all group members, you can motivate sales and support to understand where they are and to exceed their goals. Showing proper average queue performance helps agents spot their gaps immediately and boost morale on those who are outperforming.
• Get the ability to adjust on the fly – By viewing key operational metrics such as the number of calls waiting and agents logged in at any given time, supervisors can more easily move between queues while viewing KPIs and alerts on the wall panel, making instant data-driven decisions as situations change. .
• Monitor SLAs for customer satisfaction – A service level agreement (SLA) is a commitment to provide a certain level of service to your customers. Typically, the level of service (SL) reflects the percentage of calls answered within a certain number of seconds. It is a key barometer of the call center and can fluctuate based on various factors such as call volume, service outages, or agent absenteeism.
• Increase overall productivity – Get agents more involved and let them take ownership of their performance. The environment will change for everyone to want to maintain the positive parameters, thus helping to improve the overall productivity of the call center.

But of course there is a catch. While wall panels have many advantages in a call center, they can also distract agents if they are not strategically organized.

No one likes a cluttered and identical wall panel

Call center data abounds – number of calls held, answered, missed or abandoned, goals, SLA… But it can be too much. Think of a plain text static wall panel filled with dozens of stats to follow. It is difficult for the human brain to effectively understand all of the information at once. Sharing too much detail will only distract, stress, and even demotivate your agents.

It is therefore a question of highlighting a limited number of indicators and information that will make sense for your supervisors and agents. And the key is to strike the right balance between the relevant details and the attention-grabbing numbers over which agents have the most control.

So what is the best information for the call center wall panel?

It depends on the purpose of a call center and how to achieve that goal. Think carefully about what you are trying to encourage. Your wallboard should integrate a very factual real-time indicator that your teams can use to contribute to the overall improvement of the operation, at that time.

You may want to view metrics such as call waiting and longest wait time to allow supervisors to immediately detect call peaks and adjust staffing on time; Or maybe you want to focus on SLA and average talk time (or average processing time) to engage your agents and benchmark performance. There is no typical correct or incorrect information to display. It really depends on your business goals and how you want to keep your teams involved.
