Quality Monitoring
Omni-Channel Quality Monitoring
Building a Better Omni-Channel Customer Experience
Our Approach
A Holistic and Fully Integrated Omni-Channel Solution That Utilizes Predictive Analytics and Enhanced Reporting
For customer-focused organizations, both large and mid-sized, measurable improvement requires more than basic call monitoring—it requires a firm with the experience and sophistication to monitor and enhance performance management across an omni-channel Customer Experience – phone, online/chat, email and social media.
Our Approach
Our Omni-Channel Quality Monitoring Program
From calls to tweets, Northridge’s omni-channel quality monitoring program provides a window into understanding the Customer Experience and overall customer journey. Our program evaluates all customer service channels, enabling your organization to leverage thousands of valuable data points from your customers – accessing a veritable real-time focus group – in addition to gaining a true understanding of how your customers experience your brand at every point of contact.
Phone
- Assess a statistically significant cross-section of calls each month and evaluate the interactions based on a set of predetermined criteria.
- Ensure representatives consistently follow processes and messaging for successful Customer Experiences.
Online Chat
- Chat sessions are reviewed for messaging alignment with strategy and accuracy.
- Our assessors review content and evaluate the representatives to ensure consistency across channels.
- Emails can often involve multiple interactions between the customer and the representative to fully resolve the issue.
- Our team of assessors reviews the content of the entire stream of messages for consistent brand messaging, cycle times and process adherence.
Social
- Social media, the newest and most public-facing channel, has unique challenges for Customer Experience. The response times are much faster, the messages much shorter, and the audience much wider.
- Our assessors take a sample of the interactions and review for strategic alignment to process outstanding compliance issues, as well as consistent brand messaging.

State of Customer Service Experience 2020-2021

The COVID-19 pandemic intensified the need for companies to make the Customer Experience as effortless as possible. Online shopping and digital tools have become the ”new normal” and the need for self-service options enabling faster, easier ways to contact companies for service issues and inquiries has never been greater. The challenges this digital transformation presents for companies will continue post-pandemic, yet most companies are not adequately prepared.
