Call Count Breakdown Analytics

Prev Next

Understanding the different types of calls is important for analyzing data because it helps us learn more about each call's purpose. By categorizing calls based on their type, like sales calls, support calls, or customer inquiries, we can see how well our teams are doing and find ways to improve.

Let's dive into the details.

What is Call Count Breakdown?

Call Count Breakdown is an interactive, visual representation of all calls (inbound and outbound) in your Office, Main Line, Department, Coaching Team, or Contact Center over a select period of time.

To access the Call Count Breakdown, head to your Dialpad Admin Portal.

Call Overview

Total Calls

All inbound and outbound calls for the selected timeframe in your Office, Main Line, Department, Coaching Team, or Contact Center.

Handled Calls

All calls that connected an Agent to a caller, including inbound, outbound, and callback call

Inbound Calls

Inbound Calls

All inbound calls.

Answered

Calls that connected to a Dialpad user.

Transfer from Other User or Group

Calls that were transferred to another user or shared line.

Transfer from Same Group

Calls that were transferred to the same shared line.

Unanswered

Calls that did not connect to a Dialpad use.

Missed

  • Department/Main Line: Inbound calls where Dialpad attempted to ring an operator, but the operator didn't answer. When reviewing user stats, the total number of missed calls will include calls to the direct user's line as well as any lines that they've been assigned to as an operator.

  • Contact Center: Inbound call where we rang out to your available agents but they didn't accept the call. The difference between a missed call and an abandoned call is that with a missed call, there are available agents who have been rung out to (and they simply missed the call). In an abandoned call, Dialpad never rang out to any agent because no agents were available (or the other scenarios outlined under Abandoned).

Missed Voicemail

Missed calls where the caller left a voicemail.

Abandoned

Calls that ended before an agent or operator was rung.

Short-Abandoned

Calls that were abandoned within a threshold designed by the Contact Center. Short Abandoned calls are not included in the Service Level calculations.

Unanswered Transfer

The sum of Router, Auto, Forward, DTMF, and scripted IVR transfers that never connected to an operator. They are broken down into 5 granular categories:

  • Router: Calls that were transferred based on the caller’s area code.

  • Auto: Calls that were transferred to another office, call center, department, geo router, team member, or room phone

  • Forward: Calls that were transferred from a desk phone to another number.

  • DTMF: Calls that were transferred via an automated response menu.

  • Scripted IVR: Calls that were transferred via a scripted IVR workflow.

Router Transfer

Calls that were transferred based on the caller's area code.

Auto Transfer

Calls automatically transferred when the original call is forwarded (through direct routing or an IVR) to a new target. The call for the original section ends, and the new outbound call is initiated. The new outbound call rings out to the second user, who answers and continues the conversation.

Forward Transfer

Calls that were transferred from a desk phone to another number.

DTMF Transfer

Calls that were auto-transferred via an automated response menu.

Scripted IVR Transfer

Calls that were transferred via a scripted IVR workflow.

Other Voicemail

Calls that did not ring and went to voicemail.

Direct to Voicemail

Calls that did not ring and were sent directly to voicemail.

In Queue Voicemail

Calls where the caller was in the queue, but decided to leave a voicemail and end the call.

DTMF Voicemail

Calls where the caller selected the voicemail option from an automated response menu.

Transfer Voicemail

Calls that were transferred and then sent to a Department or individual's voicemail.

Message

Calls that ended at the 'to a message' fallback option.

Spam

Calls that were detected as spam.

Callbacks Requested

Calls that ended with a request for an in-queue callback.

Outbound Calls

Outbound Calls

All outbound calls.

User Initiated

Calls initiated by a Dialpad user.

Connected

Outbound calls that were picked up.

Does not include system-iniated callbacks.

Manual Transfer

Occur during transferred calls when the original call is terminated (hung up) and a new call is created servicing the call flow. The call leg for the original section ends, and the new outbound call is initiated. The new outbound call rings out to the second user, who answers and continues the conversation.

Cancelled

Outbound calls that hung up before they connected.

Callback Attempts

All calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests.

Successful Callbacks

Calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests, where the original caller accepted the callback and connected with an agent.

Unsuccessful Callbacks

Calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests that were not connected to an agent or the caller.

Unsuccessful Callbacks: Missed by Customer

Calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests, where the caller declined or did not answer the call.

Missed by Customer: Customer Declined/Missed

Number of callbacks that rings the customer first to be placed back in queue for an available agent, but the customer misses or declines the callback.

Missed by Customer: Ring, no answer by customer

Number of callbacks that connected with the agent first but the customer never answers when the agent tries to call back the customer.

Missed by Contact Center

Calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests that ended without connecting to an agent.

Missed by Contact Center: Timeout

Calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests that timed out in the queue without ringing an agent.

Missed by Contact Center: Agent declined/missed

Calls made to fulfill in-queue callback requests that timed out in the queue without connecting to an agent.
