How to create decision trees for telecom contact centers?

Knowmax knowledge management has industry-leading decision tree software to build call flow scripts for any scenario. Following are the highlighted features of decision trees software for telecom to help understand the creation of decision trees.

1. DIY process builder

Create graphic trees with the main query and add answers step-by-step. Add the guidance step first and click on the ‘+’ to create direct nodes to write user responses. You can use ‘ᵛ,’ which works as a drop-down, to select multiple options, including formatting and deleting the node.

2. Customized templates

Create interactive UI with different custom settings. You can choose from the three main types of templates. Currently, you can choose for your graphic troubleshooting tree to be presented in default mode through image theme by uploading images or selecting a color theme. There are five standard color palettes you can choose from. 

3. Integrate APIs to decision tree nodes

With integrated APIs using GET and POST methods, you can set the parameters to filter customer information. This method helps you optimize customer service with no coding required from your end.

4. Interlinked interface 

On each node, you can select ‘link guidance step’ and go to the node you want to link it to, and select ‘endlink node.’ This connects both the nodes in the graphic tree. In addition, nodes can be linked to modules such as FAQs, articles, etc. Linking modules can be done from the ‘linking’ window.

5. Marking final steps 

Once you are done creating the graphic tree, you may select options that mark the end of the resolution. Under the ‘user response linking’ bar, you can tick the node that marks the final step. After this, as an activity for your agent, you can integrate a quiz designed to test agents’ knowledge to this last node.

6. Time spent analytics

Your graphic trees might need a revamp. How do you know this? Through the analytics in the backend. Feedback analytics on the site help understand the usage of various decision trees. It can determine through feedback if it was helpful in resolution or not. You can repeat the process by cloning or creating a new graphic tree to measure efficiency like this.
