Description

AgentTime™ is a user-friendly and cost-effective software solution designed for managing call center staffing. With the capabilities of AgentTime, users can seamlessly import their anticipated call volumes and average call durations segmented by time intervals. The software then generates optimal weekly schedules tailored for various groups of agents. Included in AgentTime are Portage’s advanced Call Center Designer and SimACD staffing tools, which work together to identify the ideal number of agents needed for each time segment throughout the week. The Call Center Designer employs well-established Erlang-C formulas to forecast staffing needs and other key performance metrics for every period of the workday. Following this, SimACD fine-tunes those projections, enabling users to experiment with different agent counts in a simulated automatic call distributor (ACD) prior to finalizing the schedule. Plus, the software features an intuitive user interface that simplifies the process of crafting weekly schedules, making it accessible for managers at all levels. This streamlined approach not only enhances efficiency but also optimizes agent productivity and customer service outcomes.
