Load balancing is the process of optimizing the distribution or “flow” of call traffic. For contact centers, this means routing calls to the most optimal target / destination.
This involves a lot of factors, including;
Hours – What are the operating hours for your call center?
Agents – How many people are available to service calls?
Capacity – How many calls can your agents service at once.
Geolocation – Where is your call center located geographically?
When agents are overloaded with calls, everyone loses. You lose money, the agent is overwhelmed and your caller is left unsatisfied and unhappy.
Load-balancing routes your call overflow to agents who are available, reduces caller wait time, improves agent productivity, ensures calls are serviced in a timely manner and leave you free to run your contact center a peak proficiency.
With your call flow effectively load balanced, you are in the position to optimize run your contact center at peak efficiency. Call routing and load balancing is essential to overall call center efficiency and caller satisfaction.
