"By engaging with customers for many years, we have seen that any large business with mass customer service needs a low-cost, comprehensive solution to automate the operation of its contact center. It should work effectively with both voice and digital text channels (instant messengers, chats, etc.), ensure omnichannel and store data within the company and use it to improve the quality of service, develop sales and train chat bots. " noted Alexey Borovkov, Director of the Business Development Department "STORM Technology |
According to the developer, CASCANA.Customer Engagement Center is a universal finished product that can be easily deployed at any enterprise, systematizing the operation of the existing "zoo systems" there. It is based on the principle of "Single Window" - a platform where automated workplaces are created, channels, specialists, skills, routing and prioritization of customer requests are managed, management and security services monitor the actions of specialists. The Single Window API allows company developers to independently integrate new channels and information systems without resorting to improvements or expensive service.
"The main focus in the product is on the omnichannel of communications with the client. For example, since the buyer contacted the seller at the outlet, his order and the entire history of interactions through various channels with the company's services (confirmation of the order, provision of additional information, payment, delivery, complaints) are available to operators in the "Single Window." This information is tracked and enriched with new data on the fly, during processing. Which allows you to ensure the maximum level of service for the client, without forcing him to be "on the line" or in the chat for a long time, and without overloading the operator with a painful search for the history of dialogues with the client, as well as previous calls (it is presented in the form of a convenient tape), " noted Alexey Borovkov, Director of the Business Development Department "STORM Technology |
To implement such a scenario, CASCANA.Customer Engagement Center collects complete information about the client and products from various sources. There is a single cross-channel history of dialogs, calls, as well as general rules and operating standards for all used channels.
