Leave spreadsheet frustration behind with modern SMB workforce management software.

CommunityWFM Essentials is an ideal automated workforce management software solution for small and medium sized contact centers.

Are you attempting to meet your current needs through manual processes and spreadsheets?

Even for smaller businesses (SMBs), managing a contact center workforce can be a challenge. Hours are spent manually creating the schedule in a spreadsheet every week, only to see it change in an instant. Spreadsheets can't get the job done, and constantly having to tinker with schedules in them can impact your employee retention and customer service levels. If scheduling isn't under control, this and other risk factors may impact new business or retaining your existing customers.

The CommunityWFM Essentials solution was created because of the need for a small business to manage their contact center workforce like a large organization to ensure operational efficiency and the bottom line remain healthy. Built with many of the same industry leading features in our Enterprise solution, which companies can upgrade to with a quick license change, Essentials has everything a SMB needs for their workforce. It's modern and efficient automated workforce management software for small business contact centers to take care of schedules and other needs without breaking the bank.

Easy Forecasting and Scheduling

Trying to create schedules and forecasts with multi-skill agents can be chaotic and inaccurate. It's also time consuming. Community has simplified the forecasting and scheduling process with interactive advanced features so that forecasts, schedules, and any adjustments can be made quickly.

 

Forecasting and Scheduling

Improve forecasting accuracy and get schedules right.

When you're managing a workforce of any size, getting solid data to create accurate forecasts is a key step to success. Without accurate data, your forecasts have no chance to create solid schedules.

CommunityWFM powers one of the top forecasting engines in the market by pulling from multiple data sources, not just one or two. Including both external integrations and spreadsheets sources, create as many forecasts as you want to find the one you need.

Best of all, once your high accuracy forecast is finalized, WFM software users can make realistic cost-conscious schedules in a few minutes.
