The Cloud Contact Center Solution: Scaling Made Easy

So, your contact center nabbed another important client, and the buzz is bringing you more visibility and nibbles on the new business docket.

Great job! But, will you be ready to take on the additional work?

Building a successful contact center means having a flexible solution that can change with you as you grow.

So, in this post, we’re going to dive into why software scalability is so important, what features of scalability you’ll need in a cloud contact center solution and the why and how behind TCN’s strategy to help you realize that scaling solution.

But first, let’s define scalability.

What is a Scalable Cloud Contact Center Solution?

Scalable cloud contact center software doesn’t need to be redesigned to perform effectively to handle a major increase in workload.

That workload may mean adding new agents, storing more customer data, increasing the amount of communication and customer profiles stored, or other changes that push the system past its capacity.

A scalable contact center system will handle everything you throw at it.

If a call center expects higher call volume, more hires, or needs more features that can support omnichannel initiatives, they’re going to need the software that deploys without a hitch.

In the case that legacy systems fail to scale, managers and directors can find themselves paying for expensive hardware upgrades and losing money during downtime for implementation.

The Benefits of Scalable Cloud Contact Center Software

Scalable cloud contact center software also delivers flexibility and power – but most importantly, it will meet your needs under budget.

So, how’s it work?

True scalability empowers contact centers to prepare and deploy features they absolutely need, no more and no less. A huge number of systems require contracts that include features you’ll never need – and you end up locked in for years at a time.

Also, one stress-busting benefit to a scalable system is its low complexity.

Without extra features and functionality that won’t be used or needed, directors, agents and managers can reduce unnecessary training time, systems familiarization, IT hassle and more, keeping your teams free to do the work that pays the bills.

Even better, a flexible system streamlines and organizes data without a heavy lift.

When cloud contact center software is being used to store and track data, it’s all represented in one dashboard. The top competitors in the contact center software industry let you add any new data streams or quickly realize multiple data visualizations from a single dashboard.

Tip: You can enable TCN’s features for future use without any subscription or upkeep fees. You only pay for what you use, when you use it.
