Background:

DMG Consulting LLC, a leading provider of contact center, back-office and real-time analytics market research and consulting services, today released its 22020 – 2021 Interaction Analytics Product and Market Report. The Report focuses on contact center and service-related uses of interaction (speech and text) analytics. It also  explores the broader uses of interaction analytics throughout enterprises.

The COVID-19 pandemic has reinvigorated the interaction analytics (IA) market. Enterprises around the world have come to appreciate the advantages of these solutions, which capture and analyze voice and digital transactions on a historical, near-real-time and real-time basis. IA solutions provide insights into customers’ needs and wants, as well as their emotions and sentiment. As much of the workforce was forced to relocate to their homes, companies have relied on IA solutions to rapidly identify customer issues so that agents and self-service solutions can be prepared to handle the high volumes of interactions they are receiving. “During the coronavirus crisis, IA was often the only means for companies to know what was happening in their business, how well they were performing, and how customers perceived their brand,” said Donna Fluss President of DMG Consulting. “IA solutions are also being used as oversight tools to keep track of employees’ performance while they are working at home.” 

Vendors are continuing to invest heavily in research and development (R&D) initiatives for IA solutions. Once economies are back on track, adoption of IA is expected to pick up momentum as companies return to embedding these capabilities into their operations, inside and outside of contact centers. Since many of the newer IA solutions are superior to their predecessors, DMG expects to see a major replacement cycle of solutions once the economy is in a position to support it. For these reasons, DMG projects that the growth rate of IA, based on seats, will be 11% in 2020 and 2021 and 10% in each of the following 3 years, 2022 – 2024.

The 2020-2021 edition of the Report features 7 leading and contending vendors who offer IA as a part of a broader workforce optimization (WFO) offering or as a best-of-breed solution. The 7 vendors are: Calabrio, Clarabridge, NICE, OnviSource, Sestek, Verint and Xdroid. An eighth vendor, CallMiner, is covered at a higher level.
