How does the Predictive Dialer work?

An efficient predictive dialer can dramatically increase the agent talk. It is importance that the predictive dialer be self pacing with parametric controls to exercise the dialer algorithm. A good predictive dialer can provide live connects within a few seconds from the time an agent wraps up the last call. In order to achieve this, the predictive dialer algorithm has to dial more phone numbers than the anticipated number of agents available to answer the calls. This is can create a situation for dialer to drop calls, should there be no agent available to take a next connected call. An intelligent dialer will pace properly to keep the drop calls to minimum. In United States, F.C.C mandates that the drop call be less than 3% of the total calls connected. Indosoft offers a fully compliant predictive dialer.

Q-Suite predictive dialer can be set to power dial by setting the tolerance for dropped calls to extremely low values. This provides the opportunity to dial collectively for many agents and reduce their wait time between connects without wasting valuable warm leads. The settings can be adjusted to suite your power dialing requirements.
