Ten questions this version answers
These run against the free version today. Verint has its own reports and analytics. The difference here is that you own the records and the rules, and you ask in your own words.
Switching
How to switch from Verint Workforce Management
In practice, the move involves exporting your interval history and agent list, mapping your setup, checking the import, and running both systems side by side before you switch.
- 1
Export your Verint records
Export queue statistics by 30-minute interval and your agent list from Verint Workforce Management as CSV. Choose how much interval history to bring across. Check that the export includes the columns you need, and confirm the available export options with Verint if you are unsure what your account allows.
- 2
Run a test import
Load the exported records into the new database using its import process, starting with a test run. The import supports interval history and agent lists from Verint exports. Before loading records for real, check that the columns match and map any fields that differ from the new system’s expected records.
- 3
Review the import findings
Read the test run findings before importing for real. Identical rows are skipped if you repeat an import, but a half-hour already recorded with different figures stops the whole file. Resolve any column or data conflicts, then load the records. Rosters, skills, and routing settings vary by setup and need to be mapped separately.
- 4
Run both systems side by side
Keep Verint running while you check the new system against it over a short period. Compare interval history, forecasts, staffing gaps, and rosters, and confirm the results fit how your planners work. Check how agents will receive shifts too. Self-service swaps, shift bids, and a phone app do not carry over automatically.
- 5
Switch off Verint
Once you have checked the imported records and are satisfied with the new process, move your planning work to the new system and switch off Verint Workforce Management. Keep any records you still need according to your own business and record-keeping requirements. The new system stores records in a database your business owns.
Where the real effort goes
The main work is usually mapping your fields, rosters, skills, routing settings, and business rules to the new system, then deciding how much history to bring across. The import can bring in interval history and agent lists, but not every part of your Verint setup transfers automatically. If you have Enterprise DNA install and run it for you, they handle this mapping and migration as part of the setup.

Questions
Instead of Verint Workforce Management, answered
Can it really work out how many agents we need? expand_more
Yes. It uses Erlang C, the same queueing maths workforce tools have used for decades, against each queue’s service level target, answer time and maximum occupancy. You can see the contacts, handle time and agents needed for every half hour, and the projected service level for the roster you have.
Can you bring our Verint or Calabrio history across? expand_more
Yes, as a checked migration. Queue statistics by half hour and the agent list export to CSV, and the free version imports both after a test run. Rosters, skills and routing settings vary by setup, so we map those as part of your build and run both systems side by side before you switch.
Our agents use an app to see shifts and swap. What happens to that? expand_more
The free version sends rosters as drafts the planner shares. If your floor relies on self-service swaps, shift bids or a phone app, we build that into your version. Tell us how your agents work today and we scope it with you.
Does it know the award and the break rules? expand_more
It checks rosters against the New Zealand rest and meal break minimums and the Contract Call Centres Award meal, minimum shift, rest and notice clauses, with each source written down. Which award or agreement covers each person stays your call, and the checks are prompts, not legal advice. We add your enterprise agreement’s rules during setup.
What does Enterprise DNA charge? expand_more
One setup fee, then a retainer for the agreed work. Sam scopes the migration, the customisation and the running of it with you. The code is free to run yourself, with your own hosting and support costs.
