Building a contact center from scratch is no small feat

The Challenges Faced When
Supporting a New Contact Center

Let’s dive into some of the main challenges you’re likely to face when deploying a
new contact center, and chances are, you’re already thinking about a few of these:

1. System Integration

Setting up a contact center involves many different systems— your telephony, CRM, IVR (Interactive Voice Response), and more. Ensuring all these components work seamlessly together is one of the biggest challenges you’ll face. A failure in one part can disrupt the entire customer experience.

2. Delivering Consistent Customer Experience Across Channels

In today’s environment, customers expect to interact with you via phone, chat, email, or even social media. Ensuring each of these channels offers a unified experience requires precise coordination and testing, which is exceptionally difficult to achieve manually.

3. Testing Complex Call Flows and Routing

IVR menus and call routing are essential to ensuring customers are directed to the right place. However, testing these complex flows manually is not only time-consuming and expensive but also prone to human error.

4. Performance and Load Testing

It’s not just about your contact center working on a regular day. You need to ensure it can handle high call volumes, like during peak sales periods or promotions. If your system falters under pressure, customer satisfaction suffers and so does your reputation and brand.

5. Regression Testing During Feature Updates

After launching, your contact center will need continuous updates and improvements. With every change comes the risk of something breaking. Regression testing ensures that new features don’t disrupt your existing operations, doing manual regression testing is laborious, expensive, time consuming and a challenge.

6. Proactive Issue Detection

No one wants to find out about an issue after it has already affected customers. Detecting and resolving problems before they become customer-facing is key to maintaining high service levels.

7. Speed of Deployment

Time is of the essence. The longer it takes to launch your contact center, the more it costs. But rushing through the process can lead to missed steps, technical issues, and a subpar customer experience. Balancing speed with thorough testing is tricky.
