Designed with these needs in mind, the new Feedback and Performance Management capabilities enrich the Talkdesk CX CloudTM platform by working seamlessly with Talkdesk customer experience analytics including comprehensive real-time and historical reporting, and AI-automated quality management. This tight integration means companies can identify and act on issues as they arise and measure impact on agent performance, as well as overall CX. Specific features and benefits include:

  • Talkdesk Feedback – Easy-to-create and deploy surveys on any channel to capture, analyze, and act on customer feedback. Customer feedback can also be tied to agent performance metrics by sending feedback data directly to Performance Management. With greater “voice of the customer” insights, businesses can identify trends, opportunities and pain points, and make informed decisions that lead to increased customer satisfaction.
  • Talkdesk Performance Management – Interactive, leaderboard-style data visualizations showing agent and team performance across a variety of critical contact center key performance indicators. Calculates and displays performance benchmarks and goals, while providing performance exception notifications that encourage agents to become more invested in their individual results. Managers can additionally uncover areas for development and further engage with agents through context-aware, click-to-coach workflows.

“With the tourism industry roaring back, it’s critical we ‘wow’ customers every chance we can, which is why we’re so excited about Talkdesk Feedback and Talkdesk Performance Management,” said Preston Tewell, Help Desk Technician/Applications Support, City Experiences by Hornblower. “These new products will help us better capture and act on our customer feedback, and we’ll be able to use those customer insights to create coaching and training plans that are tailored specifically to the unique needs of each agent, ultimately empowering them to provide even better customer experiences.”
