The Agent Workspace is a clear and customizable user interface that offers a wide range of tools to support their productivity, including analytical tools and comprehensive customer reports.
Cases represent any request, question or, for example, even a complaint that a customer communicates to your company. Service Cloud mainly helps to speed up the processing of such cases. Automated processes can be used to assign cases to the most competent teams or agents based on their availability or capabilities. When viewing an individual case, your customer service has a complete overview of all interactions with the customer and the data associated with the customer. Your employees can thus provide personalized customer service, which is increasingly key these days.
Articles with company know-how, important internal documents, instructions, best practices or company rules in one place will ensure that your customer service has the right and consistent answers at hand. Your company knowledge database integrated in the Service Cloud will help not only your employees, but above all your customers as well. With Salesforce Knowledge published on your website, portal or communities, your customers can find answers to their questions themselves. Customer queries can also be resolved almost instantly thanks to an AI chat service that recommends relevant articles to the customer.
Time is of the essence when managing customer support cases. With Omni-Channel Routing, you can assign customer requests to the right agent based on their skills and availability. Omni-Channel Routing allows you to set up automation rules to ensure that the request is handled by the most qualified person. At the same time, you will always have an overview of the current events inside your customer center, in real time. You can thus effectively monitor its activity and, if necessary, provide your employees with additional support.
Service Cloud supports a wide range of communication channels. Don't keep customers waiting and offer them a wide variety of ways to contact you. Automate common customer requests with Einstein Bots for SMS, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger. Social Customer Service monitors activity on social networks for you. Regardless of the channel through which requests reach you, in Service Cloud, your agents handle them from a single screen that provides them with all the necessary information to process them.
With the help of the Field Service extension, you can also manage your workers in the field. Use automation to prioritize tasks and optimize their assignment based on your workers' skills, location, or other rules you specify. Help your team perform their workload efficiently even when they're offline with the Field Service mobile app. Field workers will always have up-to-date information on the latest news and company policies, including detailed instructions on work procedures and safety policies.
Salesforce Service Cloud is a customer relationship management (CRM) platform that enables its users to automate service processes, streamline workflows, store a company's knowledge base, and much more. The key purpose of this platform is to support a one-to-one relationship with each customer across different channels or devices.
When your customers have questions, your team needs to be equipped to answer them quickly and easily. If a customer is provided with such support without unnecessary delays, they are more likely to return to your product or service in the future. Service Cloud gives customer support staff the tools to deliver an excellent customer experience, enabling them to work faster and more productively, thereby increasing customer satisfaction and reducing costs.
