Overall Satisfaction with Verint Workforce Management

We use WFM in both our contact center and our back office operations to forecast incoming calls, optimize schedules, and track performance. Now that our company is 95% working from home, we have used DPA with WFM to monitor and track our employees' performance and productivity. We recently used WFM to evaluate our support department to determine capacity and workload and was able consolidate roles and create a new department. This allowed us to move resources in the company and fill voids in other departments.
  • Forecasting. We are regularly 97% - 99% accurate on our forecasts.
  • Performance Management - Verint does an excellent job allowing the business to create custom KPIs and the ability to track employee's performance.
  • Measuring Back Office workload and Performance - We use DPA with WFM to track administrative tasks and total workload to allow us to create an accurate staffing model.
  • Adherence Graphs & DPA - The adherence graphs that show DPA data isn't entirely accurate based on how the system calculates different idle states. The system will look at each 15 minute interval and use the state that consumed the most time in that 15 minute interval.
  • Schedule creator - Sometime when you ask the system to generate multiple schedules, it doesn't always follow the rules that you set which ends up generating schedules that are not usable.
  • Forecasting to the service level vs. ASA. We have found that trying to forecast to an ASA is not as accurate as forecasting to the service level.
  • Staffing optimization - With the Verint tool, we have been able to optimize our workforce, reduce our staff and centralize our processes.
  • Employee Engagement - Our employees always know where their performance stands so they can take ownership in their performance.
  • We have implemented WFM in several areas of the company and have been able to improve those departments which have never had a tool to help in back office operations.
Verint still has more features than other products I have reviewed.

We do not currently use the mobile application.
A typical contact center, both sales and service is an excellent use case for WFM. However, it is not very effective when trying to manage a small group. There is also a feature in Verint called VCT, both automated and manual. The manual VCT is a bit clunky and hard to work with while the automated VCT is much more effective.
