Challenges We Solve For Oracle

Common Challenges & Gaps

The OpenMethods Solution

Workflow Impediments

Agents spend excessive time switching between different screens and applications to gather interaction information.

Unified Workspace

Deliver relevant data directly into the Oracle desktop without app-toggling to gather, update, and  copy+paste information.

Repeated Info

Customers experience frustration when they have to repeat their information because agents do not have context in Oracle from previous interactions or customer journey context.

Real-Time Context Transfer

OpenMethods captures IVR, CRM, and interaction history to pre-fill agent screens.

Slow Resolution Times

Manual data entry, extended searches, and disjointed workflows slow resolution times and raise error risks, impacting productivity and service quality.

Automated Data Retrieval

Instantly fetches relevant customer details from integrated systems, reducing AHT.

Manual Navigation

Agents often manually access and navigate customer records, applications, and systems. This process frequently leads to errors and a lack of guidance for achieving optimal outcomes.

Guided Experiences & Context

Real-time recommendations guide agents to quicker resolution times, reduced error, and increased customer satisfaction.

Disconnected Systems

The required information for interactions is stored in various legacy systems and external applications, resulting in the need to manage multiple add-ons and rely on manual processes, which increases handling time.

Prebuilt App Connector

Bridges gaps between Oracle, legacy platforms, and external applications.

Case Studies & Proven Results

A 120 second decrease in AHT and 5.5% increase in first contact resolution.
Holistic reporting across channels allowed for real-time changes to call volume.
CSAT and NPS score increases by 1% and 3 points, respectively.

  • Agents frequently handled multi-inquiry interactions with different authentication processes.
  • Store credit card authentication required strict regulatory compliance.
