What is a Queue Management System?
Queue Management is a set of processes that helps you organize and control your customer’s waiting experience. Even if you’re not familiar with queue management system (QMS), you’ve certainly encountered them in lots of commonplaces. Queue management systems take many different forms, including:
- Physical barriers (like the retractable belts at airport security)
- Sign-in sheets (standard at doctor’s offices)
- Taking tickets to determine the order of service (at the DMV, for example)
- A person (an usher who scans your ticket at a theatre and shows you to your seat)
Say goodbye to crowded waiting rooms and frustrated customers by automatically assigning visitors to the exact services they need as soon as they step through the door.
Our queue management system automatically informs customers what the expected wait time for their appointment is, freeing them up to spend that time however they’d like rather than sitting in a waiting room wondering when their name will be called.
Our software completely manages customer flow, streamlining the customer experience and giving you real-time insights into the customer service metrics that matter.
