Radar In Focus: Track customer support metrics using Radar's static reports
Hello everyone,
Welcome back to the Radar In Focus series, where we explore how Radar features can add value to your business.
In this episode, we're looking at Radar static reports.
The help desk is filled with vast amounts of data that can be analyzed to uncover game-changing insights on customer needs, business performance, and support processes. However, because data is scattered across modules, it's not easy to analyze. Reports help make sense of the data.
They pull data from across the help desk into one place and present the key information in an organized, structured format, which helps identify opportunities for improvement and home in on inefficiencies. Reports are indispensable for data-backed, effective decisions; that's why we're bringing them to Radar.
We're augmenting Radar's analytical capabilities with 9 prebuilt reports
Agent availability: Lets you monitor your agent's clock-in time and clock-out time, their hours worked, sessions, and breaks.
Agent performance: Paints a vivid picture of how efficient and effective your agents are.
Incoming responses: An overarching analysis of all incoming responses, including who replied to it, when they replied, the channel through which it came, if the reply violated any SLAs, and more.
Lifecycle report: Tracks tickets as they progress through various statuses from created to closed.
Reopened tickets: Provides details of tickets that have been opened after being closed to help you understand why they were reopened.
Response time: Helps you monitor the average response time of tickets to ensure prompt service.
Resolution time: A detailed table of the resolution time of each ticket to help you uphold service quality.
SLA tickets: A comprehensive list of all the times SLAs were violated in your help desk with insights on who violated the SLA to help you put mitigative strategies in motion promptly.
Ticket stages: Helps you see tickets as they move from open to closed to find out how much time they spend in each stage.
Why Radar static reports?
Comprehensive: Each report encompasses every aspect of the topic it deals with. For example, in the agent performance report, all performance metrics of the agent, such as response time, resolution time, tickets closed per day/week, first contact resolution (FCR), escalation rate, ratings, SLA violation, and more.
Granular: Every static report is flush with details to facilitate understanding and analysis. For example, in the session view of the agent availability report, every log in and log out of the agent is recorded. This enables managers to closely monitor work hours and breaks.
Insightful: Static reports are packed with insights that can be readily acted on. For example, the ticket lifecycle report shows you, in real-time, the tickets that are stagnating in one status for a long time. Equipped with this insight, you can promptly step in and speed up resolution.
Portable: Radar's reports provide powerful business intelligence that can fit in your pocket and be carried with you wherever you go, ready to assist. An agent missing chats? Quickly pull up the availability report to see if and when they checked out.
Shareable: Export reports as PDFs or CSV files to keep a physical record. Share them with your team to ensure everyone is on the same page. For example, during a performance appraisal meeting, you can share the agent performance report to discuss the areas for improvement.
Different views and modes:
Filtering: Customize the report with filters to show only the data you want. For example, you can filter the lifecycle report to show instances where tickets have been moved from escalated to on-hold status to discern pressing concerns.
Landscape mode: Since static reports are comprehensive, they have multiple columns. Viewing all of them side by side isn't possible in the default portrait mode due to dimension constraints. However, you can do so conveniently using the landscape mode.
Reports vs Dashboards
Being analytical components, the purpose of both dashboards and reports is to provide insights and inform decisions. However, they're designed for different business applications. Understanding when to use which can help you apply these impactful tools to their fullest potential.

I have workflows setup that are very similar to each other. We have a monitoring system watching servers, and all notifications - no matter what client it is about - will come from a noreply@ address which is not very helpful in having it auto assigned to the right account. I have setup a workflow that will change the contact name of the ticket (currently it would say noreply@) to the correct customer which is based on the subject line, as that mentions which server the alert it is about. I need
Hi there: I've recently upgraded to premium and check that subtasks completion % don't update the proportional completion of the parent tasks related to it. We've been challenging with the problem of having to update twice or sometimes 3 times the completion of the related tasks. I've seen posts similar to this, of 3 years old. Is there any roadmap for making this happen in a future release? Thanx César Ratto Lima, Perú.

I get this message on one of my reports: Sorry, Zoho Reports currently does not support more than 100 distinct values in columns.
