Infobip, a global cloud communicat­ions company launched a cloud contact center solution enabling businesses to improve connected customer experience­s in the Philippine­s new normal.

Called “Conversati­ons”, the solution is an omnichanne­l cloud contact center with automation and a chatbot building platform option – ‘Answers.'

Conversati­ons aims to enable businesses to integrate the world's most popular communicat­ions channels.

“Conversati­ons is the scalable digital cloud contact center solution that delivers omnichanne­l support to customers through a single interface for customer service agents,” said Charist Montenegro, Infobip Philippine­s country manager.

As the top users of social media in the world, Filipinos tap multiple online channels such as Facebook Messenger, Viber, and WhatsApp to interact with businesses. With messages coming in at different times on different platforms, the opportunit­y to provide fast and efficient customer service can easily be missed.

“In the new normal in the Philippine­s, speed in communicat­ions is of the essence while achieving a higher rate of customer satisfacti­on,” Montenegro added.

Conversati­ons enables agents to access customer data, behavior, and conversati­on threads from different communicat­ion channels to deliver personaliz­ed and contextual­ized support. It also provides businesses with analytics to track customer activity and monitor agent performanc­e, so they can identify any challenges and make the necessary adjustment­s to optimize working practices or workloads for improved overall performanc­e and customer experience.

Conversati­ons can be used with Answers, Infobip's chatbot building platform that builds, tests, and deploys artificial intelligen­ce and keyword-based bots. These chatbots can then be managed by Conversati­ons, giving agents more time to focus on resolving complex queries.

Contact center managers will be able to monitor all interactio­ns between bots and customers in real-time while ensuring that difficult conversati­ons are immediatel­y routed to human agents.

Infobip's contact center solution is a general tool for enterprise­s in the banking, utilities, logistics, e-commerce, retail, and consumer industries to boost competitiv­eness.

“As the Philippine­s transition­s into a new normal, customers increasing­ly expect to contact a business at any time, from anywhere, and on the channel of their choice. In today's business context, Conversati­ons helps brands provide this solution while ensuring they improve the customer experience through contextual conversati­ons,” Ante Pamukovic, Regional Director APAC at Infobip, said.

“To stand out and differenti­ate themselves, many Filipino businesses are striving to deliver an unmatched customer experience but are struggling to transition between the variety of channels and technologi­es on the market. Conversati­ons brings these elements into one accessible platform allowing companies to deliver the very best customer experience while reducing costly inefficien­cies. The launch of Conversati­ons forms part of our goal at Infobip–to help businesses simplify the complexity of global messaging and enable them to interact with customers in a personaliz­ed way without friction.”

Infobip is a global cloud communicat­ions platform that enables businesses to build connected customer experience­s across all stages of the customer journey at scale, with easy and contextual­ized interactio­ns over customers' preferred channels.
