Conversation Analyzer - analytics

The Conversation Analyzer - analytics dashboard presents conversational insights about category and subcategory occurrences. Information includes insights for inbound and outbound interactions showing usage, trends, and durations.This dashboard is designed to help a business determine which agents are using and adopting the new messaging the most. Most historical dashboards show numbers and facts, while Conversation Analyzer analytics show what happened during the interaction and why.

At the top of the dashboard, you can set global filters for this dashboard:

• Interaction start date — the period of time you want to analyze data for. You can choose different preset ranges or you can specify your own custom data range. By default, Interaction start date is set to seven days ago.
• Language — the languages spoken in the interactions you want to analyze data in. Select the language using the ISO language code format, for example, en-us or fr-fr. By default, the Language filter contains all languages.
• Profile — the profiles (sets of categories, subcategories, and rules) used to transcribe the interactions you want to analyze data in. You can choose different profiles to narrow down the interactions in the dashboard. By default, the Profile filter contains all profiles.
• Category — the categories found in the transcriptions of the interactions you want to analyze data in. You can choose different categories to narrow down what was discussed in the dashboard. By default, the Category filter contains all categories. 
• Subcategory — the subcategories found in the transcriptions of the interactions you want to analyze data in. You can choose different subcategories to narrow down what was discussed in the dashboard. By default, the Subcategory filter contains all subcategories. 
• Disposition code — the outcomes of the interactions you want to analyze data in. Choose from different disposition codes available in your account. By default, the Disposition code filter contains all disposition codes.
• Initial direction — the direction of the interactions you want to analyze data in when they started. Initial direction can be either inbound (initiated by an external party), outbound (initiated by an agent to an external party), or internal (initiated by an agent to another agent). By default, the Initial direction filter contains all directions.
• Group name — the groups (identified by name) of the agents you want to analyze data for. You can choose different rules to narrow down the agents (assigned to the selected groups) in the dashboard. By default, the Group name filter contains all groups and displays data for all agents.
• Agent name — the agents (identified by name) you want to analyze data for. You can choose different rules to narrow down the agents in the dashboard. By default, the Agent name filter contains all agents. 
• Skill name — the skills (identified by name) of the agents you want to analyze data for. You can choose different rules to narrow down the agents (assigned to the selected skill or skills) in the dashboard. By default, the Skill name filter contains all skills and displays data for all agents.
• First queue — the first queue (identified by name) entered by interactions that you want to analyze data in. The first queue is where the interaction was initially routed. By default, the First queue filter contains all queues.
• Subcategory matches — the number of times subcategories were matched during the conversations you want to analyze data in. By default, the Subcategory matches filter is set to allow for greater than zero matches, that is, at least one match was found. 
• Interaction transferred — the transfer states of the interactions you want to analyze data in. You can choose to analyze interactions that have been transferred, not transferred, or either. By default, the Interaction transferred filter contains all transfer states.
• Recording time — the total duration of the recording of the interactions you want to analyze data in. The actual value of Recording time is determined by the Duration unit, for example, a Recording time of 10 might be 10 minutes, 10 hours, 10 days, and so on. Recording time includes the time the interaction recording started until it ended. The time can include IVR and queuing time. By default, the Recording time filter allows for all durations.
• Duration unit — the unit you want to use for the Recording time of the interactions you want to analyze data in. You can choose duration units of milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, or days. By default, the Duration unit filter is set to minutes.
• Customer hold time (ms) — the average duration the agent put the interaction on hold in the interactions you want to analyze data in. Hold time is in milliseconds. By default, the Customer hold time (ms) filter allows for all time.
• Agent talk time (%) — the amount of time that an agent was talking as a percentage of the total duration of the interactions you want to analyze data for. By default, the Agent talk time (%) filter allows for all percentage amounts.
• Cross talk time (%) — the amount of time that the agent and contact were talking simultaneously as a percentage of the total duration of the interactions you want to analyze data for. By default, the Cross talk time (%) filter allows for all percentage amounts.
• Customer talk time (%) — the amount of time that the contact was talking as a percentage of the total duration of the interactions you want to analyze data for. By default, the Customer talk time (%) filter allows for all percentage amounts.
• Silence time (%) — the amount of time the agent and contact were both silent as a percentage of the total duration of the interactions you want to analyze data for. By default, the Silence time (%) filter allows for all percentage amounts.

Interactions in scope tile

The Interactions in scope tile displays how many interactions are available based on the current filters. The value of this is to show how filters help focus on a small number of interactions from potentially thousands that might be available, making coaching and quality management more efficient and effective.

The Interactions in scope tile contains a column chart showing the number of analyzed interactions from the selected time period.

Category usage tile

The Category usage tile displays how many times categories have been used. The tile gives an insight into which high-level areas of the business are being talked — or not talked — about.

The Category usage tile contains a pie chart showing the categories found and the number of times they've been used.

Subcategory usage tile

The Subcategory usage tile displays how many times subcategories have been used. The tile gives an insight into which specific areas of the business are being talked — or not talked — about.

The Subcategory usage tile contains a pie chart showing the subcategories found and the number of times they've been used.

Category usage over time tile

The Category usage over time tile displays how category usage has changed over time. This gives an insight into which high-level areas of the business have peaked or declined in terms of discussion. For example, an increase in complaints, but not the type of complaint — the type of complaint would be set in a subcategory.

The Category usage over time tile contains a bar chart showing category names, the number of times each category was found, and the date of the interaction.

Subcategory usage over time tile

The Subcategory usage over time tile displays how subcategory usage has changed over time. This gives an insight into which specific areas of the business have peaked or declined in terms of discussion. For example, an increase in specific competitor mentions when the competition category is selected.

The Subcategory usage over time tile contains a bar chart showing subcategory names, the number of times each subcategory was found, and the date of the interaction.

Subcategory usage by agents tile

The Subcategory usage by agents tile displays which agents are using subcategories the most and which subcategories they are using. This gives an insight into which agents are, or aren't, saying certain phrases. This tile is most useful when filtering by category and then you can see which agents are using which specific phrases within that category most. 

The Subcategory usage by agents tile contains contains a bar chart showing subcategory names, agent names, and the number of times the subcategory was used by each agent.

Subcategory usage by agent over time tile

The Subcategory usage by agent over time tile displays the number of subcategories that have been used by agents over time. This gives an insight into what specific areas of the business are being, or not being, talked about at an agent level. At a quick glance, you can see which agents are, or aren't, using the correct and expected language. This tile is most useful when filtering by category and then you can see, for example, which agents mention which products the most or least and who is increasing or decreasing their use of the product names.

The Subcategory usage by agent over time tile contains a line chart showing agent names and the number of times those agents have used subcategories in interactions starting on each day.

Subcategory usage in each category tile

The Subcategory usage in each category tile displays the number of times a subcategory has been mentioned in each category. This gives an insight into which high-level areas of the business are being mentioned the most and which specific areas drive the usage the most. For example, the 'compliance' category may not be appearing as much as the 'sales messages' category. The 'announcing the call is recorded' subcategory is driving up the usage of the 'compliance' category, but 'adoption of the new sales messages' subcategory has increased the usage of the 'sales messages' category further.

The Subcategory usage in each category tile contains a column chart showing the number of times subcategories are mentioned within their categories.

Agent-talk, customer-talk, cross-talk, and silence times tile

The Agent-talk, customer-talk, cross-talk, and silence times tile displays the average, minimum, maximum, and percentage agent-, customer-, cross-talk, and silence times. This gives an insight into where average handle time could be improved. For example, do particular agents frequently talk at the same time as their customers (cross talk) when they should be listening, thus increasing talk time? Filtering these times by subcategory may help to understand the root cause of agent behavior.

The Agent-talk, customer-talk, cross-talk, and silence times tile displays details about the interactions in a table and contains the following columns:

• Name — the name of the agent as defined in the VCC admin portal during agent creation.
