Traffic

The Traffic report visualizes raw traffic data of conversations plotted over a given period of time for data belonging to the aggregate channel selection. There are two different sections: Conversations Over Time and Average Conversation Duration Over Time. Conversations Over Time visualizes the change in the conversation raw count over time and broken out by channel. Average Conversation Duration Over Time describes the change in the average conversation duration over time and broken out by channel.

In addition to the use of report filters, Nuance Insights allows you to manipulate displayed data through several other means in order to better visualize information. Select from the following to learn more:

Visualizations

Raw Count

At the top of the report is a widget displaying the total number of conversations across all selected channels.

Widget showing 30,896,736 number of conversations

Conversations Over Time

You can view the data for this section either as a stacked graph or in a text-only table. Both formats compare the raw conversation count of individual channels to one another over time.

Note: To see the data from the graphical visualization displayed in an alternative, textual way, click Show Table. To toggle back to the graphical view, click Show Graph.

In the example below, the report draws upon daily summarization data and each data point represents a day-long (24-hour) date granularity. There were 123 conversations on September 28th, 2021 within the link_ios channel. The graph shows that the 123 conversations for the link_ios channel (color-coded as red) was a very small fraction of the number of conversations for the uisdkweb channel for the same data point (color-coded as brown).

Avg. Conversation Duration Over Time

You can view the data for this section either as a graphical visualization or in a text-only table. Both formats visualize the average conversation duration within a specified date range for consecutive periods of time. In the graph, each bar represents all conversations in the data point defined by the date granularity and the choice of hourly or daily summarization data. Each color-coded segment within each bar represents the average conversation duration for a given channel for that data point. The table lists average conversation duration by channel and trended over time.

Note: To see the data from the graphical visualization displayed in an alternative, textual way, click Show Table. To toggle back to the graphical view, click Show Graph.

In the example, below, the date granularity filter divides the displayed data into day-long (24-hour) data points. The ivr channel in the day-long period of September 24th, 2021, had 46 conversations with an average conversation duration of 22 seconds.

Filters

Increase the specificity of your view's reporting by applying filters to the data.

Notes:

Date Range

The Date Range filter is a slider with two moveable sides. By narrowing the date range, you display only data falling within the range.

Visualization of the Date Range slider

In addition to the slider, the filter allows you to specify start and end points to the range by time of day as well as by date by clicking the Start and End regions, clicking a second time on the time of day, and then manually entering a new time of day.

Date Granularity

The Date Granularity filter allows you to adjust the reported data granularity described by the trend lines. Drag the slider horizontally to adjust the granularity of reported data. Alternatively, you can use the left  and right  arrow buttons to move the slider incrementally.

Note: If you choose to draw from hourly instead of daily summarization data, the Date Granularity filter will no longer be visible.

Conversation Outcome

A conversation outcome describes the action taken immediately following the conclusion of the conversation and as a result of a particular exit reason. For example, an outcome may be a transfer to an agent resulting from the Agent Request exit reason. By choosing one or more conversation outcomes from the list, you refine your data-set by including only those outcomes matching the names selected.

Custom filters

This report accommodates customizable filters.

Customizable filters narrow the scope of the reported dataset by including or excluding data with identifiable attributes. These attributes may be about the session or about an event that may have happened during the session.
