Receiving actionable intelligence is two-prong and is a necessary challenge for contact centers to overcome. Reporting and analytics deliver answers to improve customer experience, and performance strategies and offer a near-real-time understanding of how the contact center is doing.
Both analytics and reporting create a smart contact center that can keep track of multiple channels, across multiple locations, and give full visibility across the contact center and organization.

Reporting for a contact center is as it sounds, showing you what is happening throughout the center. Reporting assembles raw data flowing into your contact center from several streams and transforms it into key performance metrics (KPIs}.

The issue with raw data is that it’s endless and is difficult to understand in its raw state. The solution to this problem will be covered later on this page.
