This section covers the major market trends shaping the Europe Speech Analytics Market according to our research experts:
Increasing adoption across various large enterprises and SMEs
- The vendors in the market are offering the option of automation to customers via the means of multi-level IVR number systems, reducing the number of service agents and working hours spent on the job. This further increased efficiency while saving costs and with an aim to get insights, large and medium-size enterprises are adopting speech analytics solutions.
- Between December 2018 and January 2019, Aberdeen having presence in the United Kingdom, France, and Spain surveyed 369 CX executives around the world to reveal the key trends and best practices influencing CX programs in 2019. Data from this research showed that, contrary to the popular discussion that voice is going away, 76% of firms still use voice (phone or IVR) within their CX channel-mix. Moreover, companies anticipate a 27% increase in phone traffic and a 39% increase in IVR traffic in 2019. Only 11% of firms anticipate a decline in phone traffic and a mere 7% anticipate a decline in IVR traffic. The growing traffic is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the speech analytics market.
- Along with SME and large enterprises, government bodies are also adapting speech analytics and similar solutions. For instance, one European police department sought to use voice analytics to categorize incoming calls at its police call center. The police team chose to work with HPE and HPE Pointnext, NVIDIA, and Intelligent Voice to deliver an operational solution that would provide an ongoing and flexible view of call demand. Using speech and NLP, the solution would identify actions to reduce failure demand and access the impact of demand reduction measures. The solution also enabled the department to correlate changes in demand related to external factors, such as the unavailability of social services, closure of mental health units, and seasonality.
- In quantitative terms, the police department call center received 2,475 custody-related calls across a seven-week period. That equated to a total time of approximately 200 hours, or 4.1 hours per day spent by call center staff answering the calls. The average length of the calls was 5.7 minutes. In this case, the categorization accuracy of these calls was 98%. (The initial target was >80% accuracy.)
