NICE’s offering allows organizations to incorporate collaboration and
gamification into their operations
RA’ANANA, ISRAEL, May 29, 2013 – NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) today announced
the release of Workforce Management, Performance Management, and Incentive
Compensation Management versions 6.2, which include collaboration, adherence
and gamification features for greater employee engagement. The new versions
are integrated via a common interface, creating a single, easy-to-use portal
through which employees can manage their schedules, track their
compensation, and improve performance.
“Customer interactions are becoming more complex, and so organizations need
to better prepare their people to address sophisticated customer demands,”
said Yochai Rozenblat, President of the NICE Customer Interactions Group.
“Version 6.2 solutions help address this challenge by applying collaboration
and gamification technologies to more effectively measure and motivate
employee performance and to drive accountability for delivering a better
customer experience. In doing so, organizations can get closer to their
customers.”
The NICE offering includes the following enhanced capabilities:
Performance Management (PM) and Incentive Compensation Management (ICM)
. Collaboration Tools – The creation of employee profile pages and activity
feeds allows companies to foster communication and collaboration.
. Gamification – Executives and frontline leaders can initiate quests and
contests to reward employees for specific behaviors and/or achievements. For

badges and incentives that engage employees, speed onboarding, and help
retain top talent.

. Collaboration Tools – Companies can leverage blogs, wikis, instant
messaging, and polling to engage their employees and share best practices.
. Real-Time Adherence – WFM professionals can manage adherence to schedule
in real-time via thin client at greater speed and lower cost.
