Covid-19 and the macroeconomic situation has hit enterprises hard. Customer service has been one of the worst affected departments. In particular, call centers are under increasing strain. They face increased anxiety amongst consumers & businesses, surges in contact volume, lost productivity and stress on IT systems.
Call centers are the first to engage with customers, represent the brand & see products in action. Solutions are needed to connect and empower frontline agents to increase productivity, enhance customer satisfaction & improve service quality. This situation presents an opportunity to reassure customers with accurate information, build omnichannel connectivity and ensure service reliability using both currently available resources and newly accessible ones. 
In this webinar, Plug and Play will showcase a selection of startups that are easily implemented, provide quantifiable benefits to your contact center efforts and apply across multiple industries.
