- Queue-level voice and digital interaction data sent at the end of each forecasting interval for intraday management and future forecasting.
- Agent status changes updated in real-time for adherence and monitoring, while daily agent performance data simplifies scorecarding.
These advanced capabilities and deep integration make it possible for large contact center organizations to have the right agents doing the right work at the right time. Talkdesk customers will benefit from the deepening alignment across go-to-market teams, with plans for customer support by Talkdesk teams for Verint WFM.
