Workforce Management

AI-driven workload forecasting and agent schedules: exactly as many people as you need, in every interval of the day.

What it is

Zoom Workforce Management is workforce planning for the contact center: forecasting inquiry volume across every channel, optimal schedules and real-time adherence monitoring.

AI builds forecasts and schedules from your history and your rules: fixed and flexible shifts, rotations and shift bidding, agent preferences and SLA requirements are all taken into account automatically.

Through the day the system compares actuals against the forecast: it recalculates the forecast from the live trend, optimizes breaks and offers agents overtime or voluntary time off on its own when the day goes off plan.

Shifts based on data, not gut feel
  • Forecasting in 15-minute intervals
  • Fixed and flexible shifts, bidding
  • Real-time adherence
  • Re-optimize the day in one click
  • Agent mobile app

The right people — at the right time

Staffing that meets your SLA — without overstaffed shifts or schedules built by hand in spreadsheets

Accurate forecasting

AI learns from your history across every channel at once: staffing is planned from data, not from how last month felt.

Scheduling without manual work

People set the rules and preferences, the machine does the optimization — accounting for SLAs, breaks and shift constraints.

The day fixes itself

Deviations from the forecast are picked up automatically: recalculation, overtime, voluntary time off, break re-optimization.

Capabilities

What you get from Workforce Management

Forecasting, scheduling and live management of the day

Omnichannel forecasting

Phone, video, chat and email in a single forecast in 15-minute intervals; key metrics — SLA, speed of answer, occupancy — are applied directly to the forecast.

AI forecasting

AI builds both short-term and long-term forecasts; history can be imported from other systems, and a spike driven by a marketing campaign can be entered by hand.

Capacity planning

A long-term forecast turns into a hiring and budget plan adjusted for attrition and shrinkage; you can also work the other way, from the budget to headcount and SLA.

AI scheduling

Set your shift rules and the optimal schedule is assembled from the forecast and agent preferences; the classic methods are here too: fixed, flexible, rotations, bidding.

Agent shift selection

Shift bidding and schedule preferences: agents have a say in their own schedule, and planning stops being a source of conflict.

Real-time adherence

Live schedule adherence monitoring that updates in under five seconds: you can see who arrived late, left early or is on the wrong activity.

Intraday management

A forecast accuracy report as the day goes, recalculation against the actual trend, and optimization of breaks and lunches in one click.

A self-healing day

When the day deviates from the forecast, the system offers agents overtime or voluntary time off on its own and suggests routing changes.

Adherence reports

Daily adherence percentage, late arrivals and early departures, a breakdown by activity and interval — a concrete conversation with the agent instead of impressions.

Mobile app

Schedules, shift swaps and overtime offers — on the agent's phone; all the same is available in the Zoom Workplace client and in the browser.

Requests and swaps

Time off, shift swaps and automatic approval rules: the planner's routine work goes on autopilot.

Openness

APIs for forecasts, schedules and adherence plus import of any history: your data is not locked inside the system.
