Modern BPO platform Cloud Humans uses Time Doctor to proactively solve product inefficiencies and streamline how people work, to reduce its costs, support scalable operations, and maintain its competitive advantage.
A modern take on the business process outsourcing (BPO) model, Cloud Humans is a tech company founded in 2020 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Cloud Humans’ platform connects companies that need outsourced customer service with freelance professionals (that it calls pros), who are supported by the platform’s content management tools and intelligent robots to respond to customers quickly, correctly and consistently.
Cloud Humans wanted granular analytics into workflow, process and technology inefficiencies that would allow it to streamline high-quality exchanges between companies, pros, and end consumers — without adding significant project management or headcount costs.
Getting a better understanding of the productivity of its freelance customer service professionals was also seen as important, both from a quality assurance perspective and to guide advancements to the platform to boost performance.
Cecatto said that Cloud Humans’ desire for nuanced insights into time and effort wasted across its business meant that it was an easy decision to adopt Time Doctor in 2020. He said being able to integrate Time Doctor with its platform via an API offered a cost-effective way to make productivity tracking part of its business model.
While Cloud Humans’ billing, and payments to pros, is based on tickets resolved and not hours worked, Time Doctor gives it a clear picture of freelancers’ work patterns and performance metrics. That helps Cloud Humans refine processes, minimise wasted time, and retain the best pros.
Cloud Humans also values having a detailed view of how its internal workforce uses various back-end tools to coordinate and perform work on the platform. “For example, you can see not just how much time was spent on Slack, but exactly what channel you were spending time in. This is a key feature for us right now", said Bruno.
