What is call queuing?
Call queuing is a feature that manages incoming calls by placing them in a queue when all agents are busy. Common uses of call queuing are:
- Business operations: to ensure that all customer calls are handled in the order they are received, even during peak times.
- Customer service: to manage high call volumes and reduce customer wait times by providing estimated wait times and options to leave a message.
- Support management: to prioritize calls based on urgency or type, ensuring that critical issues are addressed promptly.
How Does Call Queuing Work?
When a call comes in and all agents are currently busy, the call is placed in a queue. Callers hear a pre-recorded message or music while they wait. The system routes the call to the next available agent based on your configured rules. This system ensures that no call is missed and that each caller receives the attention they need.
Call queuing systems can provide real-time updates to callers, such as estimated wait times or the option to leave a voicemail. This enhances the customer experience by keeping callers informed and reducing frustration during peak periods.
