Chat Routing

Explanation:

Chat routing refers to the process of directing incoming chat inquiries to the most appropriate agent based on predefined criteria such as expertise, availability, or priority. This ensures that customers are connected with the right person who can provide efficient and accurate assistance.

Best Practices:

  • Use Skill-Based Routing: Route chats to agents based on their skill set to ensure that customers are connected with the most qualified agent.
  • Monitor Chat Load: Keep track of agent availability to avoid overwhelming any one agent with too many chats at once.
  • Prioritize Urgent Chats: Implement priority routing for time-sensitive inquiries, ensuring high-priority chats are addressed quickly.
  • Track Response Times: Monitor response and resolution times to ensure that customers are receiving timely assistance.
