Feature Request: Add Reporting for Abandoned Chats in RingCX
Feature Request: Add Reporting for Abandoned Chats in RingCX
Summary:
Request to introduce a reporting feature in RingCX that captures and displays metrics for abandoned chats — similar to how abandoned calls are tracked in voice queues.
Details / Description:
Currently, RingCX does not provide any native reporting or metrics that log abandoned chat interactions, such as when a customer initiates a chat but disconnects before an agent accepts or responds.
This limits visibility for contact center managers who need to measure missed engagement opportunities and optimize staffing and response strategies.
Use Case:
Supervisors and analysts need the ability to identify how many customers abandon chat sessions before they are handled, along with timestamps and queue information.
This data would help:
Improve response times by identifying high abandonment periods.
Enhance customer experience by ensuring sufficient agent coverage.
Provide parity with existing voice reporting (e.g., abandoned call metrics).
Requested Enhancement:
Add “Abandoned Chats” as a metric in chat queue reports and real-time dashboards.
Include fields such as:
Queue name
Timestamp of chat initiation and abandonment
Time waited before abandonment
Agent availability at time of event
Optionally, include in Interaction Detail Reports (IDR) or Queue Summary Reports.
Business Impact:
Without this feature, supervisors lack visibility into missed chat interactions, making it difficult to track customer engagement effectiveness or staffing needs.

Using the chat functionality at a inbound contact center, its crucial for us to see abandon chats to make sure were obtaining contractual SLA goals. This would be a much needed improvement to keep using the ring central's chat functionality.

This feature is urgently needed. Each month, reporting client statistics is a challenge because we lack the ability to provide detailed insights on chat performance.
