Supervision

Control Center for Interpretation Services

A control centre gives the team operational visibility into what is happening now: waiting clients, available interpreters, active calls and events to watch.

Without supervision, issues are seen too late.

Clients may wait, interpreters may be busy and managers may lack context on real load if information is scattered across tools.

Altéa Direct centralizes supervision.

The control centre brings together queues, sessions, presence, alerts and indicators such as ASA, AHT or SLA when those measurements are relevant to your configuration.
