Impact of COVID – 19
To protect their workers, several contact centers were compelled to switch to remote work arrangements. The abrupt change necessitated investments in technology and remote infrastructure to serve remote agents, which disrupted operations and raised IT costs.
There was an increase in demand for digital communication channels including chat, email, and social media due to limitations on face-to-face encounters. In order to fulfill this demand, contact centers had to quickly adjust, strengthening their digital capabilities and putting in place omnichannel solutions.
The pandemic presented contact centers with a number of operational issues, such as variable call volumes, maintaining service levels and response times amid disruptions, and labor shortages brought on by illness or quarantine restrictions.
