Kepe,

Do the agents in your call center handle phonecalls, e-mails and faxes interchangeably? I.e. are you really using the virtual queueing as it was designed to be utilized?

I have yet to see this setup implemented in a contact center. The argument that mixing inputs increases productivity does not really hold water in phone queues with occupancy running at 85 % (burn out); also, handling e-mails and faxes requires different skill sets than answering phone calls.

Anyone out there with experience - good or bad?
