When you think of a symphony, the magic comes from multiple instruments playing together in harmony, each following their own score. Without focus and coordination, it would be chaos. What makes the difference is the conductor—a single person orchestrating the group to create a magical experience.
In today’s fast-paced world of Customer Experience (CX), supervisors are the conductor. They don’t just manage individual agents; they orchestrate the customer journey, ensuring every interaction aligns to deliver a seamless, personalized experience. And with AI tools, supervisors now have unprecedented visibility into every interaction—human or AI agent—and can coach with precision, turning good agents into great ones by identifying exactly where opportunities were missed or where friction occurred.
Great customer experience isn’t accidental—it’s orchestrated. Supervisors are the conductors, AI is their baton, and together they create the harmony that turns interactions into lasting relationships. That’s why we’ve reimagined the Supervisor Desktop—a unified hub designed to deliver exceptional experiences by giving you clear visibility, agility, and control.

The new Supervisor Desktop helps you proactively manage and optimize your contact center, enabling you to shape outcomes, not just react to them.
