Why Use Hosted On Demand Call Centers?
Why DialTek?
For many years only premise-based solutions were
offered. They were expensive, proprietary and offered very little
flexibility. First generation contact center solutions partially
addressed the cost issue; however, they did not offer full integration
capabilities or the needed feature sets and flexibility. Second
generation Call Center technologies addressed all of these issues:
use of non-proprietary systems and software, ability to integrate
with 3rd party CTI and CRM systems, rich feature sets and system
flexibility. Third generation call centers add VOIP and Web portal
technologies to the abilities of the second generation for complete
and robust solutions. These final pieces establish new cost/benefit
ratios that premise based or second generation solutions simply
cannot match.
Costs:
Systems – multiple vendors, multiple environments, multiple
OSs, multiple systems. All theses servers, computers, routers, etc.
will need to be maintained, and replaced/upgraded.
Services – telecommunications, internet,
etc. – monthly bills.
Personnel – requisitions, hiring, management,
etc.
Training – IT staff will have to be expanded
and trained. Is internal support 24x7?
Facilities – floor space, power and services
access
After all of this work is done and money is spent,
will you have the integration and the feature sets you will need?
Will your program be timely (time to market)? Will it be cost effective?
Third generation call centers offer compelling
cost/benefit ratios, are feature rich and offer the integration
and security features required in today’s environment. Even
over the long term, third generation call centers are less costly
than on-premise solutions. In addition, on demand solutions can
easily handle your seasonal or program activity “spikes”.
On-demand call center solutions enable both
large and small companies to focus on their core business, their
expertise and outsource those elements of the program that are outside
their areas of expertise. No capital investment, operating costs
that leverage hundreds of other DialTek partners, integration with
other systems and processes, extensive and extendable features,
DialTek meets all of you third generation on demand call center
needs. |
