ACD is a system that automatically routes incoming calls to a specific group of agents based on your predetermined criteria, such as type of call, caller language, time of day, or caller ID.
The system uses algorithms to distribute calls evenly among available agents, reduce wait times for callers, and, ultimately, improve your contact center’s efficiency.
When an call comes in, the ACD system evaluates the call against set criteria and directs it to the next available agent in the specified group.
Level up with IVR
By linking ACD with with IVR, you can take your customer experience further by collecting additional data from the caller to always route them to the right agent. Through using just their telephone keypad, callers can provide information such as the reason for their call, account numbers, or the department they’d like to speak with.
