Gaye Stone

Customer Service Analyst/Scheduler at Tucson Electric Power

The Copy Schedule Activities reduces time spent for changing activities. Agents are not able to cancel an approved request in the Time Off Request area.

I cannot speak about the difference for the QM software. My main use is of the WFM software. A few of the features were "nice to have" features, but version 9.3 had some "deficiencies". The main problem was not being able to run scenarios in a pseudo scheduling area, so the way Calabrio is now, agents can possibly see test scenarios. Another problem is the Time Off Request area. Agents are not able to cancel an approved request through this area. The sorting/filtering could be improved upon greatly. We are scheduled to upgrade to version 10.0, which will resolve many of the issues we do not like about the current version that we are using. Update: We are still on version 9.3 and looking forward to upgrading.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"We are able to address compliance issues more quickly."

"Calabrio WFM offers great insights on scheduling; what I like about the program the most is the coverage tray as this allows us to see our staffing deficits, shrinkage, and the reforecasting of our calls, helping us make real-time decisions while taking into account how it will affect staffing."

"Leadership is able to help new agents learn in real-time versus going back and reviewing."

"Real-time quality score notification."

"I was able to use Calabrio to provide data and analytics in a visually stimulating fashion which captured my audience's understanding with ease."

"I have found the video capture to be the most valuable feature."

"Overall I feel this is a great product with a fantastic support network with an exciting features roadmap ahead."

"The dynamic scheduling functionality allows the agents to be more empowered which was not an option on our previous tool."

More Calabrio ONE pros

"Can integrate with a lot of gateways in voice."

Cons

"I think Calabrio has a lot of potential but the day to day scheduling functions take too many steps."

"Initially, we encountered a little stability issue."

"A few of the features were "nice to have" features, but version 9.3 had some "deficiencies"."

"It sometimes needs quite clunky work arounds for certain things, e.g. If I add exceptions into agent schedules such as holidays or long term sickness, it's not easy to just delete them."

"Multi-skill scheduling and forecast is not available."

"We would like to see the backend SQL server improved for High Availability."

"There is a need for a lunch and break auto optimization."

"The only area of improvement, in my opinion, would be faster loading times and faster search results."

More Calabrio ONE cons

"Customer support can sometimes be delayed."
