Today’s contact centers are beginning to wrestle with some of the most wrenching changes in how service is delivered that have occurred in decades.

Seven Sites, One ACD: inContact Answers the Call for Statewide Helpline

This white paper covers the customer experience of Washington Information Network 2-1-1 (WIN211), a non-profit network of call centers charged with community service referral, in deciding upon and implementing an automatic call distributor (ACD) platform. WIN211 required, among other things, a platform that could handle call routing to multiple centers across the state with different equipment and constantly-shifting call volumes. After some consideration, WIN211 decided upon a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform over an on-premise solution, and deployed inContact's call center platform. The white paper covers the competing considerations at play during the decision making process, how inContact's offering measured up, and how it performed upon implementation.
