2. CallScripter

Product Name – CallScripter 4.2

Brief overview of product:

Our call scripting software is designed to streamline call centre operations. Because our software is proven to reduce training times, improve customer efficiency and has the option to implement our system as either a premise or hosted solution, we can adapt our applications and training to best suit our clients individual needs (and budgets!).

We are able to ensure that data capture and quality are consistently high, and our aim is to make the interaction between agent and customer as effortless and straightforward as possible. Our product has been developed upon real experience and real knowledge of a demanding call centre, therefore our developers are able to test out new advances in technology on the target audience, ensuring that the product is user-friendly and streamlined.

CallScripter 4.2 is now fully-functional in numerous languages, making it accessible all over the world. Previously the application had the facility to support any language in the agent desktop but required advanced techniques for multilingual scripts. With the new developments finalised the system can now take translations from a nominated database, all within a single script. When dealing with customers of many nationalities the program will allow you to effortlessly run multilingual campaigns, meaning that agents can switch between languages automatically, and reporting can be done separately or across all languages used.

Other new features that contribute to the advanced development of CallScripter 4.2 include a completely revised control set to save time and money, plugin controls, revised validations, new system variables to save on script building time and provide consistency of variable naming across scripts, and a message queue that allows post call events to be automatically queued by the system.

Release details – Since our inception in 2001, both the CallScripter software and our developers have evolved immensely. We have had 7 versions of our product, and in August 2009 CallScripter 4.2 [version 8] was released.

Approx. number of UK customers using the product – We have approximately 50 UK customers using our product, with international clients all over the globe including Australia, the USA, South Africa and Europe.

Typical customers – Within CallScripter we don’t seem to have a ‘typical’ customer. We initially started life as a call centre software company, therefore many of our clients are within the charity and telemarketing sectors. However because of the nature of our software and its flexibility we have now adapted it into a ticketing application, meaning that we can provide solutions for entertainment companies. Our most high profile client is Merlin Entertainments, the world’s second largest entertainments corporation, second only to Disney.

Typical price for a 100 agent solution – As a very approximate guess, a client could expect to pay around £70,000 for a 100 seat system. However this is completely dependent on factors individual to each client, i.e. whether a solution is hosted or premise based.

Typical voter comments:

“CallScripter has saved so much time and money by reducing the need for such heavy and in-depth training due to its excellent scripting ability.”

“The product extracts the essential information from the caller to pass to the client or the recipient of the information.”

“It has simplified creating pop scripts and made our agents far more productive and happier.”

Company – eGain

Product Name – eGain Knowledge Agent Advanced

Brief overview of product:

eGain Knowledge Agent Advanced is a comprehensive, flexible and extensible Knowledge Base system for Customer Service Agents.

Knowledge Agent Advanced:

• Provides interactive support to an agent to allow them to diagnose a customer’s problem or provide process support through a conversational interface that dynamically suggests the right questions to ask until a resolution is reached or the process completed. This is targeted at the types of call that first-line agents will regularly escalate or may provide the wrong answer for, prompting repeat calls.
• Improves the agent ability to access accurate and consistent information quickly. Agents will recognise the resolution when presented and can effectively transmit this information to a customer.

Agents can rapidly find the information they seek using a variety of access methods ranging from search, browse, FAQ to configurable useful items folders and powerful interactive searches.  Knowledge Agent Advanced has a highly configurable user interface and is supported by a powerful workflow engine.

Users in the system are able to create content in defined areas of the knowledge base.  The content can be HTML or rich-text based, contain extensible meta-data, have expiry dates, can have associated categories, etc. to support agents. Once created, content from these folders can be made available to the agents using a number of different access methods – enabling them to find the information that they require in both a timely and consistent manner.

Knowledge Agent Advanced also allows agents to have all the information that they may require at their fingertips to enable them to answer the easy information-only call, pick up details from external or back office systems to provide up-to-minute detail about orders, stock, or tariffs for example, as well as answering the more complex diagnostic or process-based query where the resolution will depend on the answers to a number of questions. For those diagnostic queries, the system utilises Case Based Reasoning to support the agent when diagnosing complex queries and offerings query resolution.

The use of Case Based Reasoning as part of Knowledge Agent Advanced positively impacts first call resolution, AHT, and compliance while reducing training times, returns and engineering visits.

Company – Infinity CCS

Product Name – Infinity QA

Brief overview of product:

Traditionally contact centres have evaluated quality and compliance through the use of paper-based call monitoring forms. This approach is very labor-intensive, requiring significant management time per call and often lengthy time lags before feedback can be given to agents. Up until now the alternative has been to invest in expensive quality management modules for the call recording vendors that vary greatly in their capability and locks you into their recording platform.

Infinity QA provides a fresh approach; it is a stand-alone software application that can leverage any existing recording platform. It enables contact centres to automate their paper-based forms, capturing, recording and analysing agent evaluations on-line.

Our customers have found that Infinity QA halves the time taken in performing call evaluations over paper-based systems by either halving the costs of performing quality management, or enabling them to increase the breadth and depth of evaluations they perform.

This time saving alone enables organisations to generate a payback for Infinity QA in months, while gaining the benefits of improved agent productivity, increased sales and customer retention and reduction in agent churn and training costs.

Release details – Infinity QA was made generally available in 2008 and since then we have continued to build and develop capability into the product based on customer feedback.

Approx number of customers using this software in the UK – 100

Typical Customers – Infinity QA users range from one of the UK’s largest outsourcers to small in-house contact centres with as few as 50 agents.  The flexibility and scalability of Infinity QA has enabled us to cater for a wide range of requirements.

Typical price for a 100-agent call centre solution – Infinity QA can be provided as a software purchase or on a pay-as-you-go model.  Organisations can use Infinity QA for as little as £19 per agent per month.

“Because of the ability to standardise QA practices, improve visibility of key quality and compliance issues and save time, effort and money in the long term.”
