While the general use of customer relationship management software (CRM) has become the industry standard, it hasn’t always been this way. Over time, as customers have come to expect a more efficient experience, companies have turned to various ad hoc solutions to manage their customer service offering. Now, it’s not enough to know just a few things about your customers.
Uncomplicating the customer experience can be especially challenging for companies with complex ecosystems: think of buyers and sellers within marketplaces like eBay or Reverb, or the web of interconnected business owners, drivers, and customers on the receiving end of food or furniture deliveries.
The COVID -19 pandemic has overstretched customer support teams across all industries. Many organizations faced a massive influx of customer requests for help, and in most cases, they were not resourced to respond appropriately. Now more than ever businesses need a customer engagement platform that enables their customer support teams to do more with less.

Their issue would be solved in a jiffy. But what if I told you can make this process even more faster using Workativ Assistant? Yes you can. Want to know how?
If you’re a CIO or an IT Admin, or a help desk agent for the matter, you might know how much of a time-consuming task it is for an employee to report an IT issue like getting locked out of their desktop/laptop, or not being able to apply for leave on your HRM system.

While everyone’s at the office, you get to enjoy a day or two taking work-from-home — relaxing a bit, sipping a cup of coffee, as you work at your own pace, without anyone looking over your shoulder, listening to some music on your TV or smart speaker.
