The contact centre is (we believe) an often under-appreciated part of a businesses omni channel strategy. We run the risk of becoming so busy looking at the ‘sexier’ channels of social and mobile that we forget just how important contact centres are in the customer journey. Not only that, the contact centre industry is vast, employing 734,000 agents across the UK.
2016 is a pivotal year for the contact centre, so when we spotted this infographic over on MyCustomer.com, we thought it was worth a share. For instance, did you know that 43% of contact centres believe their current technology doesn’t meet needs, and that on average, 79% believe systems will fail to meet future needs.
