The Challenge
The company's call center agents began experiencing issues with dropped voice calls, resulting in customer service exchanges being interrupted before completion. Regardless of call status, telephone call lengths were varying from agent to agent, with customer exchanges abruptly dropping after 30 minutes. In addition to dealing with customer service issues and frustrated call center agents unable to perform their duties as a result of the dropped calls, the company was unable to consistently meet negotiated Service Level Agreement thresholds regarding voice performance for the companies they were contracted to serve. Existing third-party tools being employed by the IT team were unable to view the call flow architecture in a manner required for successful troubleshooting.

The Solution
The company selected the nGeniusONE Service Assurance platform to manage the Unified Communication & Collaboration (UC&C) technology operating in its two call center locations.
