Basically, call queues are calls that are automatically put on hold while the operators are busy handling other calls. It is a form of call management strategy on how to improve call center support service. The goal is definitely not primarily focused on reducing a customer’s waiting time. From a business strategist’s point of view, it is to enhance the customer experience.

Our Call Queue Feature

Monster VoIP’s call queuing service is a cloud-based phone system with queue feature that gives business communication solutions.

Here are some of our system’s major functions to better manage a call queue:

Call Back System

There are some available call management systems that are programmed to inform the caller that they need to wait and constantly reminding them to stay on the line. Some customized voice recordings would even tell you to stay on the line almost every 40-50 seconds because a representative will be with you shortly. While it’s true that you might not be able to give them accurate wait time, why not give them the option to end the call and wait for your calls instead?

Our customer service call back option allows callers to hang up but still keep their place in the queue. They are also given the option to receive calls from the system once a call center agent is available. Monster VoIP’s call back feature is essential to reduce the average time in queue.

Effective Call Queue Management

Though every call center manager’s major goal is to keep the Average Handling Time ( AHT) as low as possible, A call queue isn’t supposed to be horrible at all times. According to the psychology of queuing, it should be perceived as an opportunity for businesses to make the waiting experience a chance to gain a competitive edge in providing effective customer service.
