Key Insights from the Research
The guide is designed as a practical briefing, not just a trend summary. Here are a few of the signals it explores.
Post-call analytics remains the foundation
Among analytics users, 86% say they use historical post-call speech analytics. This suggests many organizations still begin with scalable insight after the interaction before moving deeper into real-time or journey-wide use cases.
Multichannel visibility is becoming more important
53% of analytics users say they use multichannel analytics, and 47% say they use customer journey analytics. As non-voice interactions grow, teams increasingly need a broader view of customer behavior across channels.
QA is one of the clearest value areas
The report shows strong usefulness ratings for automating and speeding up quality monitoring through analytics. This remains one of the most practical starting points for adoption.
CX improvement is a major application area
Respondents using analytics reported strong usefulness for improving customer experience, including checking interaction quality, identifying dissatisfied customers, and spotting opportunities for self-service or process fixes.
