ACD Metrics

This page provides you details of the different ACD metrics available in the Metric widgets.

% Abandoned

The % Abandoned metric calculates the percentage of abandoned calls from all queued calls. This metric measures efficiency or how effective the call-handling process is. A high abandonment rate may suggest long wait times, inadequate staffing, or inefficient call routing.

% Active Talk Time

The % Active Talk Time metric measures the percentage of time spent actively talking during a call in relation to the total handling time. The total handling time includes talk time, time on hold, and any after-call work.

% ACW Time

The % ACW Time metric calculates the percentage of time spent on After Contact Work (ACW State that allows an agent to complete work requirements after finishing an interaction) compared to the total time of the call. It shows how much time was spent on tasks like writing notes or setting dispositions after the call, as compared to the entire call duration.

% Available Time

The % Available time metric measures how much time an agent is available to help customers compared to the total time they are logged in. It shows how often the agent is available to assist customers during their work hours.

% Hold Time

The % Hold time metric measures how long customers are on hold during a call. In simple terms, it helps understand what portion of a call the customer spends waiting on hold instead of being directly assisted.

% Handle Time

% Handle Time metric is a measure that compares the percentage of time an agent spends handling customers to their total login time.

% Handled

% Handled metric refers to the percentage of calls answered by agents out of the total number of calls received.

% Held

% Held metric measures the percentage of calls put on hold by agents out of all the calls they have answered.

% InQueue Time

The % Inqueue Time metric measures the time a call is waiting in a queue before being connected to an agent. It is compared to the total length of the call. In simple terms, it tells us how much of the call time is spent by the customer waiting in line for assistance. If the % Inqueue Time is high at certain times, you may need more agents to handle the volume.

% Long Abandons

The % Long Abandon metric measures the percentage of calls where customers hang up or disconnect before the minimum waiting time. For example, a high % Long Abandon may indicate that customers are waiting too long to connect with an agent.

% PreQueue Abandons

The % PreQueue Abandons metric measures the percentage of calls that customers hang up before waiting. You can use this metric to see how many callers ended their calls before even getting in line for assistance out of all the incoming calls.

% PreQueue Time

The "% PreQueue Time metric measures the percentage amount of time a call was in the pre-queue stage, compared to the whole length of the call.

% Queued

The % Queued metric measures the percentage of queued calls, compared to the total number of inbound calls.

% Refused Time

The % Refused Time metric measures the duration of an agent's time dedicated to declining calls, compared to their overall logged-in and available time.

The % Talk Time metric measures the percentage of an agent's total handle time spent actively engaged in a call, including time on hold or in conference. A higher % Talk Time means the agent manages calls well, improving customer satisfaction.

% Unavailable Time

% Unavailable Time metric measures the percentage of time an agent was unavailable to handle customers compared to their total login time.

ACW Time

The ACW Time metric, also known as After Contact Work (ACW State that allows an agent to complete work requirements after finishing an interaction) Time, measures how long an agent spends on tasks after a customer call. These tasks can include updating records, sending emails, or completing forms.
