‘What is the difference between call centre and contact centre?’ is one of those questions you find new entrepreneurs to search about on the internet. In fact, both call centre and contact centre are deemed the same.
However, there is a notable difference, and that is call centres deal only on telephone medium whereas contact centres deal with customers via both voice calls and data applications like e-mail, chat, etc.
Generally, multinationals go for contact centre services, while small businesses try to keep things in control by availing call handling services from UK based call centres. Thanks to our expertise in this industry, we are capable of delivering both call centre and contact centre services.
As per 2015 report by IBISWorld, the size of the UK call centre industry was estimated at USD 2 billion with an annual growth rate of 1.2%. An annual industry report published by ‘Contact Babel’ revealed that the number of operational call centres in UK is around 5840 units. Remarkably, call centres in UK collectively employed more than 734,000 people and operated in 15 industry verticals. Amongst these industry verticals, finance was the highest employer employing more than 212,000 agents followed by retail & distribution, public services, IT, communications and utilities respectively.
Only a few people are acquainted with the fact that United Kingdom is historically considered as the birthplace of the call centre industry. In fact, Birmingham Press and Mail inaugurated the first B2B call centre in 1965. This in-house call centre in UK successfully operated a primitive version of a modern day call centre using the most advanced technology of the time known as PABX (Private Automatic Branch Exchange). Thanks to PABX, businesses were able to handle multiple calls by bifurcating the calls to multiple extensions with the help of a human operator.
For close to a decade, PABX remained the most widely used technology by call centres in UK to cope with incoming calls. This was disrupted with the launch of Automatic Call Distributor (ACD), a new telecommunication technology, developed by leading industrial automation company Rockwell in 1973. At that time, ACD became a talk of the town, as this computer operated technology automated the process of call distribution, which, in turn, vanished the need for a human operator. International call centres, today, use an upgraded version of this technology.
