2. A virtual call center, also known as a remote contact
center, is a business model in which your call center
agents are not restricted to a specific location or
device. Instead, they can take inbound customer calls
and respond to outbound inquiries while working from
anywhere. Although the agents are physically separated,
virtual call center keeps them digitally connected.
Because of its flexible deployment options, it is a
cost-effective alternative to traditional, legacy call
center solutions.
