Techsplained: Omnichannel for Customer Service

Exceptional customer service is more important than ever. Your organization must meet the demands of customers who expect quick and efficient support, no matter what channel they use to reach out. This is where Microsoft Omnichannel for Customer Service comes in: a platform that integrates all your customer interactions across multiple channels into a single view.

AI capabilities and CRM integration

But there’s more. In the central cockpit, agents get an instant overview of any contextual customer information (purchase history, previous contact, notes etc.) from your company’s CRM. If a customer has already been in touch for the same problem, agents can immediately follow up on that interaction. This avoids the classic frustration of customers having to explain their problem multiple times to different people.

The integration of AI capabilities can also assist customers with common issues, freeing up your customer service team to focus on more complex problems. Some of the possibilities:

• Sentiment analysis can determine what mood a customer is in when reaching out. Agents can adapt their support when a client is slightly annoyed or impatient, for instance.
• Chatbot functionality is integrated in the platform, which assists customers with common issues and filters standard questions.
• Automatic voice transcription can free up time for your agents by delivering accurate transcriptions of voice interactions.

The result? An exemplary level of customer service that will greatly improve customer satisfaction rates.
