The Reserve enhancement package enables users to maximise existing workstations, as well as training room facilities, through automating the seat planning process by matching up the right seats with the appropriate agents. This can reduce real estate and administrative costs by enabling flexible seating or “hot desking” in an automated fashion. Through Reserve, companies can easily assign seats across teams, floors, sites and facilities, enabling organisations to reduce their physical footprint, postpone adding unnecessary capacity, and reduce operating costs. Other customer-requested enhancements that are now available in Aspect eWorkforce Management 7.2 include: extended scheduling and assignment features, enhanced synchronisation with other PerformanceEdge capabilities, and additional eSchedule Planner improvements that provide agents with a new, graphical view of schedules and also offer administrators more flexibility.
