Advances In Contact Center Technology...How To Improve Efficiency And Effectiveness

CRM INTEGRATIONS FOR THE CONTACT CENTER  

Talkdesk was recently named a "Visionary" on Gartner's Contact Center Magic Quadrant because of success with CRM integration for contact centers. They achieved this goal faster than any other company in history, which supports their message that Talkdesk is innovating faster than their competitors. A lot of the key competitors in the leader’s quadrant have either lost ground, or they have remained unchanged from the previous year. Talkdesk has invested 50% of their resources in R&D, because of this they have been able to keep moving forward. Three of Talkdesk's top strengths include:  

1. Talkdesk takes an innovative approach with its AppConnect partner program, as partners must agree to offer one-click installation, pay-as-you-go billing, and a 30-day free trial. This makes it easy and low risk for customers to add functionality such as workforce management, speech analytics, and business intelligence. 
2. Talkdesk can provide global voice quality guarantees based on MOS measures and backed by service-level guarantees. 
3. Talkdesk offers tight integration to Salesforce CRM, including single sign-on, single user management, automated workflows, integrated live and historical reporting, omnichannel integration and integrated SMS. 

 

CRM is a technology for managing all of a company's relationships and interactions with customers and potential customers. When it comes to CRM about 85 to 95 percent of your clients are using it. This means that it is one of the most important areas to focus on. Today you will learn how Talkdesk ties in tightly with CRM. So, what is a CRM Integration? A CRM Integration links all critical customer and prospect data into the contact center, and vice versa.
