SMG Expands Contact Center and Conversation Analytics Capabilities with CallMiner Partnership

Service Management Group (SMG), a global customer, patient and employee experience management partner to more than 500 brands, has expanded its partnership with conversation analytics leader CallMiner.

The integration helps brands improve the contact centre experience and end-to-end customer journey by combining omnichannel conversation data and AI-powered analytics with experience management data.

In collaboration with CallMiner, SMG is delivering context and new insights to customer experience programs by pairing speech and customer interaction analytics with real-time customer feedback in the smg360 platform. With conversation analytics available for every customer interaction, SMG and CallMiner are delivering a comprehensive view of the customer journey by measuring, summarizing and correlating perceived and actual experiences. By understanding key behaviours, processes, and actions that drive positive experiences, brands gain actionable insight to improve customer, reduce churn and drive revenue.

“While contact centres contain a wealth of information relevant to the customer experience, traditional data silos often prevent programs from reaching their full potential,” said SMG VP/GM of CX Solutions Charlie Moore. “Our partnership with CallMiner is helping brands tap into conversational feedback and connect the dots between customer interactions and the actions brands can take to improve the experience.”

With the ability to capture and analyse voice and text-based customer interactions at scale, CallMiner helps brands extract insights from unstructured data to drive action and business improvement across the enterprise. Categorizing and automatically scoring customer interactions helps brands understand the quality of the engagement, agent performance and how the contact centre is impacting the customer experience.

“With the right technology, brands can contextualize customer conversations and uncover key insights to drive better agent performance, customer satisfaction and overall business improvement,” said CallMiner CTO and founder Jeff Gallino. “Partnering with SMG allows us to bring data from across the customer journey into a single platform so brands can easily and more effectively consume and explore CX data, quickly identify shortcomings and take action.”

The smg360 platform offers an array of integrations and connectors, allowing brands to uncover richer, more actionable insights by pairing third-party and inferred datasets with solicited and unsolicited experience management data.
