And it isn\u2019t just the customers who are happy. Streamlined workflows and deeper insights mean less stress for your whole CX team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s why <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/gb\/en\/effortless-customer-engagement.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RingCentral\u2019s customer experience solutions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> continue to expand, and this spring is no exception!

Our Bot Skill Store is one more way to expand self-service quickly, as you don\u2019t have to build all your self-service bots from scratch. If you already use our Bot Builder product, you will automatically get the Bot Skill Store.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefit from a specific chatbot skill for escalation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"richer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Richer messaging<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26907\" src=\"\/gb\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Richer-messaging.gif\" alt=\"Richer messaging-531\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Handle digital channels more effectively with rich messaging, such as Quick Replies and List Pickers, without technical knowledge. These templates can be applied across multiple digital channels to create better interactions for agents and bots while providing consistent messaging across messaging channels. Create more engaging and efficient interactions thanks to rich links, which can be decorated with an image, a title and a subtitle to be more appealing.<\/p>\n<p>Pictures and call-to-action titles can engage customers to click. Quick replies, rich links and list pickers can be selected as pre-set templates to gain time for agents but also for customers who can click or tap instead of writing.<\/p>\n<p><b>Example:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A list picker allows customers to select answers in one click: the reason why they contact you or to book an appointment for a video call.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"alerts\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

These alerts are based on agent state and customer sentiment. Supervisors can focus on interactions that are going wrong and make instant assistance decisions based on the information.<\/p>\n<p>Proactive real-time alerts on unusual agent state duration help the supervisor monitor and better assist the agent activity in case, with proposed actions directly available from the alert.<\/p>\n<p><b>Example<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: A supervisor sees that the customer sentiment is low on a particular agent interaction and jumps in to help.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"new\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4.

Agents now have consistent, modern experiences incorporating all digital-first private and public channels and one-click integrations across all agent solutions. This offers an intuitive UI for a seamless omnichannel experience. Relevant customer data, including interaction history and data from integrated CRMs, appears on agent desktops and provides agents with a complete view of the customer. Even if the information comes from multiple data sources and CRMs, a single contact card provides full visibility into the customer journey. Your agents are empowered to respond effectively, delivering personalised and insightful responses that will delight your customers.<\/p>\n<p><b>Example<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: When a customer calls with an issue, the single contact card provides full visibility into the customer\u2019s journey so the agent is empowered to respond effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"scheduling\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5.
