Call center quality monitoring isn’t just for phone calls anymore.

In the digital age, where instant gratification is the norm, immediate responses to customer inquiries can make or break a brand's reputation. This rings especially true for software companies.

Sometimes, the balance is disrupted so much that it leads employees toward toxic productivity.

It’s hard to know exactly how the convergence of technology and personalized care will change center operations in the future.

Bummed about Meta’s recent announcement that it’s shuttering Workplace and recommending Workvivo as an alternative? Don’t be.

This is an opportunity to upgrade to a No. 1 intranet platform purposefully designed to enhance the employee experience.

Inefficient processes carry a big price tag for businesses. Formstack’s State of Digital Maturity report found that 51% of U.S. workers spend at least two hours a day on repetitive or inefficient tasks. That translates into an estimated $14,560 per employee per year that could be invested in growth. One of the best tools for streamlining efficiencies (and banishing inefficiencies) is a process map.
