5 Ways to Optimize Work-From-Home Agents’ Productivity with Upstream Works

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact organizations across the globe, the transition to call center agents working from home while continuing to perform business as usual requires greater operational flexibility, enhanced collaboration tools, and ease of management.
Here are 5 ways you can optimize your agents’ productivity while they work from home (WFH) – and continue to provide high-quality, personalized engagements with Upstream Works for Finesse (UWF).

1. Empower Your WFH Agents for Greater Productivity

The UWF intuitive Agent Desktop provides enhanced productivity tools, easy conversation navigation, guidance, and knowledge management with full visibility to all customer context-data, Interaction Activity and History. Call center agents working remotely have everything they need to assist customers quickly and effectively across all channels, improving CX and customer satisfaction.

2. Elevate CX Engagements with Co-Browse, Video Care and more

Engage with your customers on their channel of choice: phone, email, web chat, messaging, video, Co-browse, social, bots, and more. With Co-browse, call center agents and customers can collaborate remotely through a secure, shared web-browsing experience.
