Australian Call Centre Benchmarking

Know exactly how your contact centre is performing — and where to lift it.

Your dashboards tell you what’s happening inside your contact centre. We show you something they can’t: what customers actually experience when they call — and how you compare to your competitors.

Independent assessments against the national CX Standards, your own criteria, or both.

The insights your dashboards can’t give you

Whatever you already track internally, two things it can’t give you are an outside-in view of the real customer experience — and how you compare to everyone else.

🎧

What customers experience

An independent shopper contacts you exactly like a real customer would — or we assess your own recordings — capturing what your internal metrics never see.

🏁

How you compare

Benchmark head-to-head against the specific competitors and peers you choose — something no internal report can tell you.

🎯

Measured your way

Score against the national CX Standards, your own criteria and compliance checks, or a blend — whatever matters to your business.

Four ways to benchmark — pick your depth

Every service gives you your own complete CX score. Where they differ is what you’re measured against, and how the calls are captured.

Snapshot compares you to the sector average only — never individual centres. Peer & Competitor is the only service that benchmarks you against named competitors you choose.
