When customers call your support line with an issue, they expect it to be solved almost immediately. Call escalation pathways allow contact centers to prioritize and direct customers inquiries to the best-suited support agents to ensure that customer support requests are handled efficiently and effectively. Implementation of call escalation pathways can increase customer loyalty and reduce wait times, thereby increasing customer satisfaction. Voice APIs can help in automating certain processes of the call escalation process, such as sentiment analysis and call transfers.

Call escalation is when a call is transferred from one agent to another—typically to a supervisor or more experienced agent—in a contact center when the original agent is unable to handle the call effectively. This may be necessary in situations where the customer has a complex issue or complaint. The goal of call escalation is to increase customer satisfaction, retention and brand loyalty.
