A performance report is a report on the performance of an organization, group, or individual. Performance reports are routinely produced to identify areas of improvement within an organization or business.
Why should you create routine performance reports?
When you’re searching for reliable help desk support software, you should always check for its reporting capabilities. Performance reports can help you pinpoint the exact areas of your business that need improvement. Finding “laggards” and areas that can be optimized is always great because it presents an opportunity to:
- Improve your agent’s performance
- Provide additional training to those that need it
- Improve customer satisfaction, experience, and sales
- Reallocate resources
- Reinforce support channels
- Find more cost-effective ways to solve problems
In addition to that, performance reports can also showcase areas of your business that are thriving. This is important because:
- You won’t have to overhaul your whole business/support strategy
- You’ll be able to reward overachievers
- Underperformers will be able to learn from overachievers
