Traditional contact centers with on-premises systems require agents to be in one central location, tethered to a desk phone. In some contact centers these desks, phones, headsets and keyboards are shared by multiple agents on different shifts. With anywhere from dozens to hundreds of agents in one place, contact centers are high-risk locations for operational shut down due to virus spread or other natural disasters. Cloud contact center solutions offer staff the flexibility to work from the safety of their home while enabling secure business continuity.

“The contact center is the heart of customer service and the face of the brand. In times of crisis, customers expect questions and concerns to be addressed, making contact center business continuity critical,” said Tiago Paiva, chief executive officer, Talkdesk. “Traditional contact centers have a higher potential to be hit hard by the spread of Coronavirus, for example; or structural damage caused by natural disasters. Talkdesk Boost for Business Continuity helps companies move to the cloud easily to enable critical business continuity remotely, providing customer confidence and staff safety.
