What is wolkvox BI? #
wolkvox BI is a product within the wolkvox suite that allows you to make the most of the data from the operations you manage through our contact center platform. This, in turn, streamlines real-time decision-making. This product facilitates the interpretation of performance and key indicators of your operations and agents, optimizing processes and enhancing the customer experience.
You can access a range of information for up to four (4) months of your operations. Once wolkvox BI is activated, data from your operation will begin to be stored after one (1) hour of activating the product.
After the first hour has passed, the data you will begin to visualize will correspond to the first day within a range of four (4) months of information. With each passing hour since activation, one (1) more day of information will be stored and displayed.
This means that the last 120 days (which correspond to the last 4 months) will be fully available for consultation after 120 hours (5 days) from the activation of wolkvox BI.
Example: You activate wolkvox BI on August 20, 2021, and after one (1) hour of product activation, you begin to visualize information from April 20, 2021. With each passing hour from the moment of activation, you can see one (1) more day in the different dashboards. Around August 25, 2021, you will have a complete four (4) months of information about your operations.

What is Power BI?
Power BI is a cloud-based business analytics solution that allows you to combine different data sources, analyze them, and present an analysis through reports and dashboards. With Power BI, you have easy access to data inside and outside the organization on almost any device. These analyses can be shared by different users within the same organization and can have access to real-time business information.
It is primarily composed of these components:
- Power BI Desktop: Free desktop application for transforming, visualizing data, and creating reports.
- Power BI Service: Online service (SaaS) with functionality similar to the desktop application. It allows you to publish reports and set up data updates automatically so that the organization’s staff has up-to-date information.
- Power BI Mobile: Mobile application available for Windows, iOS, and Android for viewing reports that automatically update with changes in the data.
