Subject: Re: [asterisk-biz] Residential VoIP Stats

that would be the erlang formula... you still end up with the ratio though... oops, a quick google reminds me that erlang is for call centers... wonder if you could use it for voip providers... steveT, you would know...

FORMULA TO CALCULATE PHONE LINES NEEDED
What is the formula for calculating the number of lines for an inbound call center if we have the BHCA (Busy Hour Calls Average) and QOS (Quality of Service or Service Level)? Online calculators give the answer but not the formula. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. -- Sameer Maini, Target Corporation

Calculate Call Center Staffing with Excel
By Joannès Vermorel, May 2008This guide explains how to optimize the number of agents to reach the desired service level. This guide applies to call centers and contact centers. The theory is illustrated with Microsoft Excel. Advanced notes are available for software developer who would like to reproduce the theory into a custom application.
Download: erlang-by-lokad.xls (Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet)
When opening the spreadsheet, Excel will warn you than this document contains macros. Those macros correspond to the Erlang-C formula (see explanation below). You need to activate the macros in order to reproduce the calculations.

'all lines are busy, please try your call later'... how many times do you want a customer want to hear that msg. daveC mroberts1818@gmail.com <mailto:mroberts1818@gmail.com> wrote: Hi list, Anyone know where I can find some statistics on residential calling patterns?
