Callback executive summary
Learn to analyze callback statistics on the Executive Summary dashboard.
The Callback Executive Summary dashboard displays callback statistics for all Call Targets in your organization. Within this report, you can view the total number of callbacks offered to customers. Within each channel (voice and digital), you can view the number of offers accepted and their final outcomes.

Aggregate graphs
The Callback Executive Summary dashboard contains two graphs of aggregated call data:
The Aggregate Volume graph provides an overview of callbacks separated into channels.
The Aggregate Outcomes graphs reveal patterns in the final outcomes of callbacks. Here you can see an overview of how many callbacks successfully connected with customers and how the calls ended.
In both graphs, each data point is shown as a percentage of the whole in addition to a raw volume number. You can view these numbers listed near the graphs or hover over any section of the graphs to view the data in a tooltip.
Aggregate Volume Graph
The Aggregate Volume graph displays an overview of calls handled by Mindful. Calls are separated into voice and digital sections.
The Presented with Callback tile shows the total number of calls included in the graphical data.
Within each channel (voice or digital), you can view the number and percentage of callers who requested a callback, chose to hold, or failed to complete the callback registration process.
The following metrics are shown in the Voice section:
- Requested Callback
Callbacks that were requested via the voice menu
Includes both ASAP and scheduled callbacks that were registered and completed within the specified date range
- Chose Hold
Customers who chose to wait on hold rather than accepting a callback offer
Only applies when Offer Choose Hold is enabled and customers made their choice in the Mindful voice menu
- Incomplete Registration
- Offers that were not successfully registered due to a lack of information provided by customers in the voice menu
- Chose Messaging
- Customers who chose to transition to a messaging conversation
One metric is shown in the Digital section:
- Requested Callback
Callbacks that were requested via a Digital Callback widget on your website or mobile app
Includes both ASAP and scheduled callbacks that were registered and completed within the specified date range
Aggregate Outcomes Graph
The Aggregate Outcomes graph displays the final results of callback interactions. The data is separated into calls that were successfully reconnected with customers and those that were not.
The Requested Callback metric shows the total number of calls for which a callback was requested. This includes all possible channels.
The Reconnected section separates calls into those during which the customer spoke with an agent, those that were canceled by the customer after reconnecting, and those that were abandoned by the customer after reconnecting.
The Not Reconnected section shows the final state of each call that was not reconnected with a customer due to a cancellation, technical failure, or an unavailable customer.
The Pending section shows the number of callbacks that are currently awaiting launch.
The following metrics are shown in the Reconnected section:
- Spoke to Agent
- Successful interactions in which customers spoke with agents
- Canceled
- Callbacks that were canceled by customers after reconnecting
- Abandoned
- Callbacks that were abandoned by customers after reconnecting
The following metrics are shown in the Not Reconnected section:
- Unavailable
- Callbacks that reached the maximum number of retries allowed for any reason
- Failure
- Possible technical issues or telephony-related failures prior to reconnecting with customers
- Digital Cancellation
- Callbacks canceled via the Scheduler API
- Admin Cancellation
- Callbacks canceled by an Administrator in the Mindful Callback user interface
Stats by Call Target
In the Executive Summary dashboard, the Call Target table combines some of the data from the Aggregate Volume and Aggregate Outcomes graphs with additional performance metrics for each Call Target. Just like the graphs, the data in this section only includes the final call attempt for each interaction.
Consult the following list for descriptions of the data in each column of the table.
- ID
- The ID of the Call Target associated with each row
- Call Target Name
- The name of the Call Target associated with each row
- Presented w/ Callback
- The number of customers who were presented with callback across the Voice, Messaging, and/or Digital channels
- Callback Requests
- The number of callbacks requested for each Call Target
- Voice Callbacks
- The number of callbacks requested via the Mindful IVR
- Digital Callbacks
- The number of callbacks requested via widget or API
- Reconnected
- The number of callbacks that were successfully reconnected with customers
- Not Reconnected
- The number of callbacks that were not successfully reconnected
- Reconnect %
- The percentage of total callback requests that were reconnected — a value of 85%-90% is ideal for the Reconnect % statistic.
- Incomplete Registration
- The number of calls that were disconnected before a callback was registered
- Choose Hold
- The number of callers who chose to wait on hold for an agent rather than register a callback
- Choose Messaging
- The number of callers who chose to receive an SMS message rather than register a callback
- RCSL < 30s
- The percentage of calls in which a customer connected with an agent in less than 30 seconds
- RCSL < 60s
- The percentage of calls in which a customer connected with an agent in less than 60 seconds
- RCSL over 60s
- The percentage of calls in which a customer connected with an agent after more than 60 seconds
- Avg Customer Hold Time (Secs)
- The average customer wait duration in seconds
- Avg Agent Wait
- The average agent wait time in seconds
- Queue Time Saved
- Hold time prevented by using Mindful — the value is calculated by multiplying the number of successfully reconnected callbacks with the Average Response time for callbacks during the period in question. Only ASAP callbacks are included, and only the first attempts.
- Punctuality Rate
- The percentage of callbacks made within 20% of the Estimated Callback Time (ECBT) calculated at the time of registration
- Avg Response Time Mins
- The average time elapsed before reconnecting with customers, in minutes
- Spoke to Agent
- The number of callbacks in which the customer was connected with an agent
- Cancelled
- The number of cancelled callbacks
- Abandoned
- The number of callbacks in which the customer disconnected before speaking with an agent
- Customer Unavailable
- The number of callbacks that were dialed but failed to reconnect with the customer
- Unknown or Failure
- The number of unknown errors and failures not covered by other statistics
- Digital Cancellation
- The number of callbacks cancelled via digital channels (API, messaging automations, etc.)
- Admin Cancellation
- The number of callbacks cancelled by an administrator in the Mindful UI

Callback Acceptance Rates and ECBT
We have analyzed real-world data to determine the impact of ECBT on callback acceptance rates and discovered that customers are more willing to accept a callback offer as the ECBT quoted to them increases. The following graph illustrates how the acceptance rate increases as the ECBT rises from three minutes to more than 30 minutes.
- 3 to 5 minutes — 44%
- 5 to 10 minutes — 52%
- 10 to 15 minutes — 58%
- More than 30 minutes — 66%
Call Volume and Call Experience Timeline
The Call Volume Timeline graph displays the total number of callbacks inbound (registered) and processed within the selected time period. The y-axis represents the number of calls and the x-axis represents the day (or week, depending on the selected time span).
The Call Experience Timeline graph quantifies elements of the customer callback experience. This allows you to analyze numbers and trends that tell the story of customers' experiences after they request a callback.
Key metrics are plotted side-by-side in a line graph to show the correlation of trends among several call-experience metrics. To hide one or more of the graphed lines, simply click the name of the line that appears along the x-axis. To view the line again, click the name again.
Response Time — The average time (in minutes) between the moment a callback is registered and the moment it is launched
Talk Duration — The average time (in minutes) that customers and agents spent speaking while connected to the call
Hold Time — The average time that customers waited on hold for an agent
Punctuality — The accuracy of the Estimated Callback Time (ECBT), determined by comparing the ECBT to the actual callback time for each call
Each of these metrics provides a strategic insight into the customer experience and can help you to fine-tune your Call Target configuration. However, looking at the metrics together and understanding the correlation between them can be even more useful. For each call listed on the x-axis, you can see how long the system took to launch a callback, how accurate the callback time prediction was, how long the customer waited on hold after being called back, and how long it took the agent to resolve the customer's request.
Looking at these points together can give you a complete understanding of what the customer experienced. Looking at trends from the correlation of the different metrics can help you to identify potential issues early and make adjustments as needed.
