Well, in that scenario, I was unable to attend the client meeting. My intern, who was a rookie, to be honest, took the meeting and impressed the client, and we went on to make millions through them. To date, he is still a rookie, but the company has made significant profits.

Verint Workforce Management Review and Feedback

Rating: 8 out of 10

Incentivized

June 25, 2026

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Reducing busy work like shift swaps and OT extensions. Reduces the workload for dynamic scheduling for Programs that have multiple queues and skills for blended agents.

Pros

AHT reporting at a interval level. This previously was an issue for us as the duration for most calls exceeds the 15 minute interval.
Tracking PTOs and other calendar events was a big problem in our last platform. Verint Workforce Management has really made a big different with these issues, also the option for agents to request time off around their scheduled time has been a big win for us.
Generating optimal schedules based off business needs. We have used other systems we have needed to tweak about 10% of schedules. Verint Workforce Management seems to be closer to 3% to 5%

Cons

Occupancy should be a controlled metric within the tactical forecasting.
Actual FTEs shouldn't use service level to calculate. Although this is a good metric to have, it shouldn't replace Actual FTE. There really should be a option to show you the full actual FTE (not the true HC, but the FTE based off the amount of time in a productive state)
Shift bidding is very cumbersome and almost because just as much work as manual changes

Likelihood to Recommend

I think Verint Workforce Managementi s well suited for all scenarios. No system is perfect, but understanding the gaps allow you to be effective considering those gaps. The one scenario I can think of is if you don't need to forecast. We have some departments where volume is controlled (example Outbound). Because of the business model we have staffing on a given day or hour isn't important. Only agents are working 40 hours a week.

Verint Workforce Management --Timesaver through Automation

Rating: 8 out of 10

Incentivized

June 25, 2026

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Weekly scheduling of phone/chat channels for ~50 agents. It easily allows us to see coverage gaps and automates leave requests for the agents. The optimization takes away the manual work of placing each skill and breaks on schedules for each agent. NRT data from the Queue Analytics keeps leaders informed on current performance.

Pros

Automated leave request processing gets responses to agent requests quickly for days/intervals that don't require supervisory/analyst review.
Classes function removes the manual scheduling of sessions saving the scheduler time.
Staffing Profiles helps with the running of scenarios during hiring to validate the shifts requested by the hiring leaders.

Cons

Adding more than one overtime session to a single day (such as before and after the standard shift) is unable to be done automatically by the agent, requiring manual manipulation of schedules by the analyst.
Adding overtime to shifts that start on different days due to time zone differences causes errors when requested by the agents, requiring manual manipulation by the analyst.

Likelihood to Recommend

Most of the daily scheduling requirements are well-provided, but the lack of ability for agents to complete some tasks does create more work for the analyst and/or the supervisors through the need to manually manipulate the schedules to complete the requests. There is some lack in ensuring minimum staffing during smaller intervals of zero forcasted volume, again requiring manipulation to ensure business-required minimum headcount.

Verint Workforce Management Review

Rating: 7 out of 10

Incentivized

June 25, 2026

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Scheduling, Staff Planning, Forecasting. Ensuring we have staff available to fill based on our imported forecasts

Pros

Forecasting
Queue Analytics
Scheduling

Cons

Scheduling isn't as "plug and play", submitting items with scheduling conflicts makes processes having to be repeated vs identifying and resolving
Let events added to a schedule just be added and have it identify what conflicts appear and let the user override without a fuss.

Likelihood to Recommend

Schedule generation is seamless as long as work patterns are set up. Once implemented, the overall workflow is generally pain free. It is a little less friendly with scheduling against imported forecasts in my experience, but there are other ways around it that still gives me the end goal I aim for.
