Using Voice with Workforce Optimization for Customer Service

Use Voice to deflect cases away from your human agents using bots. You can record phone interactions when agents resolve issues. Also, you can monitor those interactions to evaluate and improve the quality of case resolutions.

With the Voice application, you can:

• Enable your workforce to work using the voice channel and get call recordings, call transcripts, and reports of sentiment analysis when agents interact with callers. You can visualize all of this information within the Channel Management application in Workforce Optimization for Customer Service.
• Analyze the call transcripts and sentiments of users after an interaction is complete so that you can create assessments, provide feedback, and training for agents.
• Synchronize agent presence within the queue.
• View the Amazon Connect channel on Channel Management. You can view the performance metrics and reports of the agents using the voice channel. To access the reports, your application administrator must install Amazon Connect Spoke.
  Note:

  The following reports on the Amazon Connect channel are chargeable:

  • Contacts in ACW State
  • Oldest Contact Age
  • Average Abandon Time

  These reports are collected from Amazon Connect using GetMetricData and GetCurrentMetricData APIs. For more information on the prices of these reports, see Amazon CloudWatch Pricing.

Note:

You can integrate any third-party telephony service with the ServiceNowVoice application. By default, ServiceNowVoice provides you with the ability to integrate with the Amazon Connect application.

You can visualise the metrics from the Amazon Connect phone queues that are routed through Voice using the Channel Management application in Workforce Optimization for Customer Service. The Voice application uses Advanced Work Assignment to report data from the Amazon Connect queues.
