Select Predictive dialing when utilizing agent time or completing outbound campaigns fast is a priority.
GET STARTED How will it work for you?
A Predictive dialer is an outbound dialing system that dials numbers from your database and then connects agents based on a mathematical estimation of agent availability. It prioritizes your agents time, gives the highest agent productivity, and is the fastest dialer for completing outbound campaigns.A predictive dialer gives 80% or more agent productivity since it connects only to live prospects.
When should you choose a predictive dialer?
When you have low to moderate quality data
When your data is purchased from a third party
When you have to make 300+calls per agent per day

Testimonials
"Ozonetel has played a pivotal role in the shaping the workflow of guest and partner calls. With Ozonetel, we have a simplified solution for our call routing needs and with the advantage of cloud, we are wireless, highlight being seamless support when need be. However, with the growing number of calls and identified issue types, we would like Ozonetel to create a redundant workaround for know issue types."
LEARN HOW TREEBO USES OUR IVR.
“We evaluated companies and found Ozonetel to be best suited for our needs. Due to the per-agent pricing model, we have managed to keep the overall CS cost at just under 0.5% of the overall revenue; when revenue has grown ten-fold over two years. Due to this stable and robust solution, we are consistently managing AHT of 2.5 minutes and are able to achieve industry-leading FTR of 85%..”
LEARN HOW BIG BASKET USES OUR IVR.
"Better monitoring platform, which is also helping in ensuring that calls answers are given priority. Also, the in-built CSAT system via IVR feedback is a handy tool in gauging customers feedback."
While no two predictive diallers are the same, the main factors used by the algorithm to predict agent availability includes:
Answer ratio of the past hour/specified period of time.
The total number of agents logged in.
AHT of Agents ( talk time + wrap up time).
The average number of breaks taken by agents.
Best practices: Increasing productivity by 150-250% using predictive dialers
How do you know if your dialer is performing as expected? If you are getting a 150-250% increase in dialing productivity while maintaining your drop ratios less than 10%, and not more than 20-30 seconds between calls, your dialer is working at its optimum. If not, follow these best practices to improve your productivity:
1) Regularly remove all invalid numbers. Set a value beyond which you will not retry number, for example, 5 tries (at different times). And clean those numbers from your database.
2) When you have completed a number of outbound campaigns, you will start noticing patterns. Certain geographies have better answer rates than others. Ensure you cover those geographies first.
3) A predictive dialer completes campaigns extremely fast. You should be targeting a minimum of 200 calls per agents with around 15 seconds per call. Anything short of these numbers indicates your data is not sufficient for a predictive dialing campaign, or that you need to assign fewer agents for the given campaign.
4) Continuously monitor your connectivity rates and drop ratios. Maintain drop ratios less than 10%. When drop rates increase reduce your dialing ratio. In the US and UK, it is important to maintain drop ratios above 3% for compliance.
5) Train your agents to maintain a consistent and low AHT or wrap time. Train them to use disposition codes correctly. Train your agents on achieving daily goals and having consistent Average talk time. This helps the dialer algorithm to predict when an agent gets free correctly.
6) Enable answering machine detection to skip connecting to answering machines or voice mail.
7) Run a DNC/DND (Do Not Call/Do Not Disturb) filter prior to uploading data.
8) Ensure that your agents don't take breaks at the same time.
9) Have sufficient agents to avoid call drops due to agent unavailability.
