Article Summary

Quick access: Insights > Callback Performance

The Callback Performance Dashboard, as the name implies, focuses on qualitative metrics of your Callback conversations. This includes talk and response time, as well as how some of these measures are impacted by certain behaviors within the Mindful environment. Whereas the other dashboards in Mindful Insights focus on the "what" of conversations, the Callback Performance Dashboard focuses on the "why."

Check out the following video for an overview of the Callback Performance dashboard.


Filters and Downloads

The Callback Performance Dashboard allows you to organize multiple tiles and data sources into a single space, making it easier to quickly analyze many related pieces of content. To customize your view of the data, use the filters at the top of the dashboard. 

Filters

Filters appear at the top of the dashboard and match fields contained within the dashboard's tiles. Depending on their configuration, they can include single- or multiple-choice options, ranges of values, or various date and time options. In some cases, filters may be required by the dashboard in order to run.

  1. Date: The Date filter allows you to filter by various criteria. 
  • Click in the Date field to reveal a drop-down menu and select the filter of your choice. 
  • If desired, change the number that appears (7 is pictured here) to a number of your choice. Then use the drop-down menu to select the unit of measurement.
  • Click the + sign to add any other desired criteria for filtering. To remove criteria, click the X. 
  • Note that "null" and "matches" in the drop-down menu are not applicable at this time.

Screen capture of Callback Performance Dashboard's Historical Callback Times readout with sample data

  • Callbacks: total callbacks for the selected date range
  • Queue time savedthe total length of time saved for ASAP callbacks, measured as the response time between the callback request and the first callback attempt to the customer
  • Data As Of: the date and time that the displayed data was pulled

Screen capture of Historical Metrics on Callback Performance Dashboard

  • Avg Wait Duration: the average customer hold time for all callbacks
  • Wait Duration: the average customer hold time, broken down by time period
  • Avg Talk Duration: the average call talk time for all callbacks

  • Avg Estimated Callback Time: the average length of time until callback requests were estimated to be fulfilled (for ASAP callbacks only)
  • Avg ASAP Response Time: the actual average response time for ASAP callbacks
  • Estimated vs. Actual Response Time: a comparison of average estimated callback time and actual response time, broken down by time period

For a breakdown of how some of these metrics are calculated, see  Insights Dashboards Calculations.


Customer Metrics

In addition to high-level averages and aggregates, this section of the Callback Performance dashboard provides a more in-depth analysis of customer behavior, as well as some practices that might drive higher callback success rates.

Screen capture of Callback Performance Dashboard customer metrics

  • Success %: the percentage of successful callbacks for your organization
  • Customers: the distinct number of customer phone numbers used for callback requests
  • Callback Outcomes: the proportion of outcomes over the selected period, broken down by week. Possible outcomes include:

The x-axis represents the deviation from the estimate in the listed increments, the y-axis represents the success rate of those callbacks during that period, and the bubble size represents the number of callbacks made within that period.

For a breakdown of how some of these metrics are calculated, see Insights Dashboards Calculations.


Retry Metrics

This section of the Callback Performance dashboard focuses on retry metrics.

    • premature_customer_hangup: The customer disconnected the call and did not press 1 on the previous callback attempt.
    • system_ended_agent_leg: The callback ended with the system disconnecting the call to the contact center.
    • system_ended_customer_call: The callback ended with the system disconnecting the call to the customer.

Screen capture of Callback Performance retry metrics

  • Retry Attempts: a breakdown of outcomes per number of retry attempts

Return Call Service Level Metrics

Return Call Service Level (RCSL) is an aggregate of agent delay and customer hold time. In other words, once the return call is made for a callback, RCSL is a measure of how long it takes for a customer and an agent to begin speaking.

Screen capture of Callback Performance return call service level metrics

  • Return Call Service Level (RCSL): a breakdown of RCSL into below 30 seconds, between 30 and 59 seconds, and above 60 seconds for the selected time period
  • RCSL Over Time: a breakdown of average RCSL (blue bars) by week and the percentage of RCSL below 60 seconds (teal line)

For a breakdown of how some of these metrics are calculated, see Insights Dashboards Calculations.
