New Reporting Tools For Call Center KPI Metrics

New Contact Center features for improved call center KPI metrics: Personal Dashboard and Occupancy Rates

Share:

Call center KPI metrics track efficiency, productivity, and customer satisfaction within call centers. From first call resolution (FCR) to abandoned call rates and average handle time (AHT), VirtualPBX Live Dashboards can display a multitude of insights.This week, we’re excited to launch two new Contact Center features, designed for greater individual insight into day-to-day workflows and closer occupancy rate management.

Make Call Center Metrics Personal

Personal Dashboards are like Admin Dashboards, but customized to help keep team members informed and on track. The Personal Dashboard is designed to give individual users real-time insights into call activity, queue performance, and key metrics. Administrators are responsible for configuring these dashboards, managing user permissions, and ensuring that dashboards are assigned to the appropriate workspaces. Navigate to the Personal Dashboard through the VirtualPBX Web Phone under the Personal Dashboard tab on the left.

From active calls and call times to service performance and voicemail information, four tile types can help you customize the view to exactly what you need.

Absolutely. Admins can create separate dashboards within different workspaces, each tailored to the team’s specific needs.

The Active Calls and Agent Status tiles support live analytics, while other tiles display historical data.

The tiles are shown in the Dashboard section of the Web Phone and are embedded at the bottom of every screen for continuous visibility.

Keep Tabs on Call Center Occupancy Rates

What is Occupancy In a Call Center?

Occupancy rate is a key call center KPI metric that measures the percentage of time agents spend on customer interactions—calls, hold time, and after-call work—versus their total logged-in time. It excludes breaks, training, and meetings. High occupancy can signal burnout, poor service levels, and low employee satisfaction, while low rates may point to underused resources or the need for rebalancing. According to standard call center metrics, an ideal occupancy rate ranges from 70–90%, with smaller centers typically targeting 80–85%.

Calculate Your Occupancy Rate Now

Occupancy rate percentage is the total handling time divided by the total available or logged-in time multiplied by 100.
