“The 2023 Contact Center Report reveals advancements in customer experience and reflects the evolving role of contact centers across the customer journey.

Sources revealed that AI-enabled conversational Intelligence for agents reduced talk time. The ‘Average Talk Time’ indicates the time an agent spends talking to a caller. In 2023, this metric is expected to be reduced to 2.64 minutes compared to 3.7 minutes in 2022, an improvement since 2019 (4.3 minutes).
