How Does Call Tagging Work?

Call tagging (sometimes also called call tracking) is a feature that lets you categorize phone calls based on a predefined set of criteria. 

You can assign a custom tag to inbound and outbound calls as part of your After Call Work right at the conclusion of your calls. Think of tags as the ability to label call recordings for quick reference later. 

You can also filter calls by their call tags, which will allow you to search through your call history based on a chosen label. Simply click on the tag to see a list of all calls with the chosen tag.

CloudTalk allows you to assign multiple tags to a single call, too. Calls can be labeled with different tags and combinations of related tags; for example, Claims and complaints, Technical support, New orders + VIP Customers, and so on. 

Call tagging allows your call center agents to cut through the phone call clutter and prioritize your customers and their needs.

How can call tagging help you?

Know customers’ emotions

Even the most exceptional support teams receive some angry customer calls. Tagging them and jotting down some relevant call notes allows you to better understand why they occurred.

 Set effective strategies

Call tagging makes it easier to analyze your call center data using calls in your contact history. It can help you measure your contact center productivity and business performance.
