Queue Management
Better Lobby’s queue management system is designed to streamline the flow of members within the credit union, significantly reducing wait times and enhancing the overall member experience.

Appointment Booking
The appointment booking feature of Better Lobby allows members to schedule their visits at their convenience, directly from their smartphones or computers. This functionality not only reduces the congestion in the branches but also allows staff to prepare for appointments in advance, leading to more personalized and efficient service. Members appreciate the ease with which they can plan their visits, and staff can optimize their workflow and focus more on member engagement rather than administrative tasks.
Good to Know: Utilizing the appointment pre-check feature can further enhance efficiency by ensuring that members arrive prepared for their appointments, reducing delays and increasing the throughput of service encounters.
Data Analytics
Better Lobby provides powerful data analytics tools that give branch managers and COOs comprehensive insights into member behaviors and branch operations. These insights include tracking peak visit times, member wait times, and service completion times, allowing for data-driven decision-making that can profoundly impact operational efficiency and strategic planning.
Good to Know: Integrating these analytics with your CRM can provide a 360-degree view of your members, enhancing personalized marketing efforts and improving cross-sell opportunities.
Member Communication
Effective communication is pivotal in managing member expectations and enhancing their banking experience. Whether it’s a reminder for an upcoming appointment or an alert when their turn is approaching, members stay informed every step of the way, reducing uncertainty and building trust.
Good to Know: Implementing automated feedback collection post-visit can provide immediate insights into member satisfaction, allowing you to make quick adjustments to services and potentially turn a mediocre member experience into an excellent one.
By integrating these key features, Better Lobby not only streamlines branch operations but also transforms how credit unions interact with their members, leading to enhanced efficiency and elevated member satisfaction. These tools are essential for any credit union looking to stay competitive in today’s fast-paced financial environment.
The Better Lobby Advantage
Real-Time Monitoring
Better Lobby equips your credit union with the capability to monitor lobby activities as they happen, offering a real-time view that is crucial for managing operations dynamically. This instantaneous insight allows branch managers to adjust staffing levels and allocate resources efficiently to meet the fluctuating demands throughout the day, thus minimizing service delays and enhancing member satisfaction.
Reports
Utilize preconfigured reports for quick access and ease of use. These reports can provide snapshots of employee activities and member experience metrics, allowing for swift assessment and response to operational needs.
Dashboard
The comprehensive dashboard presents an overarching view of the credit union’s operational health. Managers can focus on specific time ranges or branch locations, drilling down into detailed data to understand patterns and anomalies that could impact service quality.
Remote Manager
A standout feature for COOs and branch managers overseeing multiple locations, the Remote Manager function lets you view real-time activities and assess how busy each branch is from anywhere. This capability is essential for coordinating responses across several locations, ensuring consistent service quality regardless of geographical spread.
Good to Know: Implementing real-time monitoring not only enhances operational responsiveness but also contributes to a proactive management style. By identifying trends and potential issues before they escalate, your credit union can prevent major disruptions and maintain a smoother operation, leading to a more reliable member service experience.
Enhanced Member Experience
Better Lobby is designed to drastically improve how members interact with your credit union. By significantly reducing wait times and streamlining the entire service delivery process, Better Lobby ensures that members spend less time in queues and more time receiving the personalized attention they deserve. This efficient service model not only meets but often exceeds member expectations, leading to a noticeable boost in overall satisfaction.
The system’s ability to manage appointments and queues digitally reduces the congestion typically seen in busy branch environments. This smoother flow naturally enhances the member experience, as it minimizes frustration and allows members to engage with staff under less pressured circumstances. Moreover, the digital framework provided by Better Lobby keeps members informed with real-time updates about their wait status or any changes to their scheduled appointments, which reinforces a transparent and communicative relationship.
Good to Know:
A satisfied member is more likely to become a loyal advocate for your credit union. Implementing strategies like targeted greetings and services, based on the data collected through Better Lobby, can personalize interactions further, making members feel valued and understood.
Enhancing the member experience goes beyond operational efficiency; it’s about creating a welcoming environment. Use the insights gained from Better Lobby’s analytics to understand peak times and member preferences, tailoring your staff’s approach to meet these dynamics effectively.
Scalability and Flexibility
Better Lobby’s system is crafted with scalability at its core, perfectly suited to accommodate credit unions of all sizes, from smaller local branches to large institutions with extensive networks. This scalability ensures that as your credit union grows and evolves, Better Lobby can seamlessly grow with you, without the need for frequent system overhauls or replacements. This capability is vital for maintaining continuity and service quality through periods of expansion.
The flexibility of the Better Lobby system is another critical feature. It supports not only traditional in-branch service models but also remote interactions, such as check-ins via mobile devices and virtual service sessions. This flexibility is increasingly important in today’s digital-first world, where members expect services to be accessible from anywhere, not just within the physical walls of a branch.
By harnessing the scalable and flexible nature of Better Lobby, credit unions can not only meet current member needs but also adapt swiftly to future demands and changes in the financial landscape. This adaptability is crucial for staying relevant and competitive in a rapidly evolving market.
