Contact Centers

Evolve Your Contact Center with Clickatell Chat Desk

The modern customer contact center is critical to any consumer-facing business. Contact centers must maintain the stringent customer experience standards of your business while working with customers that have urgent questions and problems that need to be solved. Your customers want to be satisfied with every interaction with your business - including service and support functions. And their evaluation of an overall brand experience with your company will be end-to-end, from the quality of your products and services to the Web or in-store experience to their wait time and customer service interactions when they require help.

For too many businesses, the contact center is a weak link in an otherwise excellent experience across customer touchpoints. Customers view the contact center experience as inconvenient, time-consuming, and frustrating, filled with redundancies and long IVR menus. Incorrect call routing takes them to call handoffs and ID authentication is often required repeatedly during the same call. What’s worse, there is little flexibility in the experience. Regardless of the complexity of the customer issue, the process seems to be the same; even simple questions turn into complicated 30-minute calls.

The contact center could do so much more for the customer – and for your brand. Great customer support builds goodwill and loyalty. But a bad experience – even in a contact center – can deeply damage the customer relationship. Poor contact centers cost businesses revenue.
