Comment le transfert de votre centre de contact vers le cloud peut vous aider à réduire les coûts

With the rapid shift to the new normal of working remotely, organizations across the globe are struggling to find the appropriate infrastructure and strategy to keep operations up and running, while ensuring the safety and health of employees.

For many, this is more than just a shift in routine. The pandemic represents a challenge for business survival as some industries like travel and hospitality see a concerning decrease in demand, while many organizations struggle to keep up with high call volumes and effectively serve their customers. Talkdesk® provides companies with a unique opportunity to thrive under these challenging circumstances.

C'est abordable pour commencer

Les solutions de centre de contact sur site sont généralement coûteuses, compliquées à mettre en place et nécessitent souvent des mises à jour régulières et coûteuses. En revanche, les solutions en cloud ne nécessitent pas de frais d'entrée élevés, ce qui rend la phase initiale du processus beaucoup plus facile, moins coûteuse et plus fluide. Même pour les entreprises qui ne sont pas encore prêtes à adopter pleinement le cloud, une option de déploiement flexible peut être utilisée pour renforcer l'infrastructure existante.

Optimisez et étendez la pile technologique de votre centre d'appels

On-premises technology can be rigid and inflexible, often requiring a significant investment every time you need to update or replace it to meet new business demands.  On the other hand, cloud solutions let you take advantage of diverse deployment models and seamlessly integrate with other cloud applications, so you can more easily adapt and optimize your customer service operations. Talkdesk AppConnect was designed to make that process even easier by offering a curated ecosystem of out-of-the-box integrations and value-add services that Talkdesk customers can try risk-free.

Économisez sur les coûts d'installation et de maintenance

Avec les systèmes sur site, les mises en œuvre et les mises à niveau représentent une dépense en capital importante, et de nombreux fournisseurs exigent de longs contrats de maintenance. Avec des solutions en cloud comme Talkdesk, il suffit d'un ordinateur portable ou d'un appareil mobile et d'un casque pour que les agents soient opérationnels en un rien de temps. L'architecture intuitive et facile à utiliser de Talkdesk peut être configurée à l'aide de "clics, pas de code", ce qui élimine efficacement la complexité du déploiement, de l'administration et de l'utilisation de votre plateforme de centre de contact.

Maintenez votre personnel hautement engagé grâce à une technologie de pointe

Staffing costs account for 50 to 70 percent of a contact center’s operational budget on average. Furthermore, replacing an individual employee can range from one-half to two times that employee’s annual salary. Keeping these costs down requires effective resource planning and a highly engaged workforce, which can reduce attrition by up to 24% in high-turnover environments. While Workforce Engagement Management (WEM) tools can help drive both of these outcomes, it’s important to ensure that they are cloud-native, tightly integrated with your other contact center technology, and provide an intuitive user experience for administrators, supervisors and agents. Best-in-class WEM solutions can help reduce costs even further by using artificial intelligence (AI) to help optimize processes and automate manual tasks.

Personnalisez vos interactions pour mieux fidéliser vos clients

Times of crisis bring unprecedented challenges to businesses. With the COVID-19 pandemic, for example, travel and hospitality companies were impacted by travel advisories or restrictions, resulting in cost consequences of at least $24 billion in foreign spending alone. This has caused tremendous spikes in customer demands, highlighting the importance of maintaining a successful communication system in order to retain customers. Customizing IVR menus and routing options is a great way to deflect common questions to automated systems or redirect customers to a special group of agents and thus increase overall satisfaction.

Another option would be to introduce some self-service options into your customer service strategy. AI-infused tools can greatly help your customers help themselves before they even get to one of your agents. These tools will further help you customize every interaction, automatically recognizing who the customer is and what steps to taken in order to solve his/her problem.

An AI-powered virtual agent, for example, can act as first line of defense by analyzing speech and detect easily-solvable issues, then recommending best course of action for resolution. In case of a more complex topic, the virtual agent will immediately route the customer to the best agent who’ll be able to handle it. Deploying an intelligent knowledge base is an alternative method that can help your customers to quickly find the information they are looking for on their own time.

Dans l'environnement commercial actuel, qui évolue rapidement, les dirigeants doivent prendre des décisions rapides visant à améliorer l'efficacité et à réduire les coûts. En disposant des bons outils en place, que votre équipe peut utiliser de n'importe où, votre organisation pourra minimiser les perturbations et se concentrer sur les opportunités clés.
