Illustration of how computer telephony integration works

When your customers use phone calls to reach you, they aren’t thinking about what’s going on behind the phone controls or call center software curtain. They simply want an answer to their issue, with personalized service, in a timely manner.  But many companies without tight computer telephony integration and other integrated technologies face challenges like the following:

  • 79% of agents say it’s impossible to provide great service without a complete view of customer interactions (Salesforce).
  • 32% of customers say having to repeat the same information multiple times is the most frustrating aspect of a poor customer experience (Microsoft).
  • 41% of the average contact center’s time is spent on repetitive, administrative tasks (callcentrehelper.com).
  • 75% of customers expect the representative to know who they are and their purchase history (Microsoft).

So how do brands set up contact or call center operations for success?

There’s no need to lift and shift to a new phone system, call management system, or other business systems. You can still modernize your digital and voice channels — improving both agent and customer experience. The key is integrating systems that enable brand-specific custom automations to:

  • Deliver a personalized customer experience with real-time 360 degree views of the customer data.
  • Increase agent efficiency and team performance with streamlined, automated workflows and a unified agent interface.
  • Increase the ROI of your existing resources by easily integrating communication platforms and CRM platforms.

It can be a pain to juggle multiple communication channels, but that’s the cost of doing business in this digital world. You need to be available on the customer’s preferred channel, while keeping the full customer history accessible for support tickets, sales calls, and more. Telephony integration helps make this more manageable for every contact center.
