RingCentral Joins Google’s Chrome Enterprise Recommended Contact Centre Solutions

Highlights:

• Companies must provide more agile digital options that can meet customers where they are.
• The right contact centre solutions can boost agent productivity and agility in operations while also moving the needle on customer experience.
• A partnership between Google Chrome OS and RingCentral improves agent experience and customer experience.

Today’s customers think differently about what makes a customer experience positive, and contact centres must now rethink the experiences they provide. 

Customers crave secure digital communications

Increasingly, customers are looking to connect with your contact centre via a variety of digital channels. This change in customer preferences means that companies must reach their customers where they are, on the digital channels customers prefer.

As interaction volumes spike, customers are also looking for ways to solve their problems quickly, without being stuck in contact centre limbo waiting for help. That means that companies must also provide more agile options, such as chatbots that can handle simple customer inquiries about location or business hours.

Going hand in hand is the concern on security. Opening up more channels is also opening up complexities around protection. Companies must ensure that these interactions are more secure than ever. 

Happy agents = happy customers

At the same time, agents are looking for better experiences. As the channels they must handle increase, agent experience can plummet. Further, the massive move toward hybrid contact centres has left some agents who work remotely feeling isolated and adrift.

For some agents, it was the first time that they were asked to work from home. Because the move was somewhat abrupt, many agents lacked the necessary training and tools to make that move successfully. It was more important than ever to have a quick and stress-free deployment for work-at-home agents in a way that is less disruptive. And, it is not one time. The ability to have constant safe updates in the backend was critical for agents to have better productivity. 

Agent productivity is essential for any contact centre measured on the cost of service. It was also serious because the reality is that productive, engaged agents are happier than their non-productive, unengaged counterparts. 

Agent experience matters greatly because happy agents ultimately lead to happy customers. RingCentral’s Engage Digital and Engage Voice solutions provide a seamless desktop that is simple and easy to set up and start taking interactions quickly.
