Large Canadian financial institution focuses on customer insights
Connex assists customers with leveraging Verint technology, including Speech Analytics, to surface customer insights.
One such client is a large Canadian financial institution, which has leveraged Connex support and Verint technology to create a Customer Experience Analytics team that has become a trusted source of insights for customer and agent experience across five contact centers in North America.
Data collected in these centers yields intelligence that the organization uses to identify and respond to high-volume, low-value calls and to quickly surface and act upon call drivers that yield longer handle times and frustration. A large Canadian financial institution leverages speech analytics to create substantive categories, identify call drivers, and develop mitigation tactics to proactively address them effectively across the organization.
In one example, the organization took corrective action that resulted in a reduction of 3,000 calls per month. A large Canadian financial institution also identified the top five drivers of repeat calls, developing training materials, employee communications and manager coaching to address the root causes.
