Dublin, Jan. 12, 2017 -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "2016-2017 Workforce Optimization (WFO) Product and Market Report" report to their offering.
2016 was a highly disruptive year for the WFO market. Mergers and acquisitions have altered the competitive landscape, and more activity is expected. End users are demonstrating a growing preference for purchasing WFO functionality directly from their contact center infrastructure vendor.
The rapid growth of cloud-based contact center infrastructure solutions and the need to be cloud-ready are driving a surge of innovation in the WFO market, including enhanced architectures, improved user interfaces, faster processing and new functionality. Back-office and branch WFO are also finally starting to gain traction. WFO vendors are making investments to capture this growing opportunity, as it is expected to represent an important part of their future business.
Analytics - speech, text, desktop and, increasingly, customer journey - represent the future of WFO. Organizations need insights into all of the actions that their employees take when interacting with customers. Analytics solutions provide the data required to determine the actions needed to remove any impediments to service excellence and ensure a consistently outstanding customer experience. Analytics solutions can provide agents with the information they need to deliver a personalized customer experience, which is a top goal for enterprises.
The 2016 - 2017 Workforce Optimization Product and Market Report provides the vendor, product, functional, technical and pricing information that enterprise, contact center and IT leaders need to select the right solution to meet their organization's current and future front- and back-office WFO requirements.
