Zendesk has announced new updates to their customer experience digital collaboration tools to further empower businesses and their agents.
In today’s digital-first and distributed landscape, businesses across the globe are facing the constant challenge of keeping up with ever-evolving customer needs.
Digital transformation has become top of mind among leaders, yet only 66% of surveyed managers say their organisation has a high level of agility.
Companies that aim to deliver excellent customer experiences (CX) need to adopt an agile mindset, as well as a lean and flexible approach to both technology and its implementation.
Zendesk’s service platform helps companies move faster than ever, while still delivering incredible experiences. The latest capabilities, introduced today, include:
- Messaging at scale: Zendesk’s expanded messaging platform for conversational business introduces proactive messaging tools to help brands offer assistance up front to clarify customer needs. Supporting brands in agile learning and improvements, Zendesk’s reporting tools offer insights on the performance of a brand’s automation strategy, such as the number of bot interactions escalated to an agent
- Improved agent workspace tools: Businesses can ensure agents’ time and energy are invested where it is needed the most with improved routing tools for social channels. And, to help agents manage more complex requests, integrated live chat and voice, now makes it easy to switch the conversation between channels. Content cues, which use machine learning to help improve a company’s knowledge base health, are also now available in more languages, including Spanish, German and Portuguese. Also leveraging machine learning are suggested macros for recommending ticket responses, which support increased agent efficiency at scale
