Agent performance platform for contact center teams MoreLess

Medallia Agent Connect, formerly known as Stella Connect, is a performance management platform for customer service teams that connects customer feedback with quality assurance (QA) and coaching. The company was originally founded as StellaService in 2009 by Jordy Leiser and John Ernsberger. Initially, StellaService provided customer service ratings and audits for online retailers by using "mystery shoppers" to evaluate service performance. In 2016, the company launched a new business unit, Stella Connect, to focus on agent performance management by leveraging real-time customer feedback. This shift led to the sale of the original StellaService business to PowerReviews.

In September 2020, Medallia acquired Stella Connect for approximately $100 million in cash. The acquisition integrated Stella Connect's capabilities into the Medallia Experience Cloud, aiming to create a comprehensive solution for work-from-anywhere contact centers. The platform is designed for both in-house and outsourced customer service teams. Its business model is based on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) subscription, with pricing based on an "Experience Data Record" metric sold in annual tiers.

The platform enables managers to gain visibility into agent performance, automate workflows, and implement reward programs based on customer feedback. Key features include real-time customer feedback collection after each service interaction, quality assurance management, and personalized agent coaching. The system calculates metrics like Customer Satisfaction (CSAT), First Contact Resolution (FCR), and Customer Effort Score (CES). It also includes gamification elements like leaderboards to motivate agents. Medallia Agent Connect supports omnichannel evaluation across voice, email, chat, and social media and integrates with third-party platforms such as Salesforce, Zendesk, Slack, and Talkdesk.
