Salesforce Service Cloud: The CRM Solution for Personalised Omnichannel Customer Service
Even when it comes to service, customers expect a unique experience with short response times. Companies need to provide fast and straightforward support – no matter when, no matter where. With Salesforce Service Cloud, your customers can enjoy superior service on all channels. The cloud-based customer service solution brings together all support channels and enables your employees to provide a seamless service experience.
With Salesforce Service Cloud, you can integrate your call centre, track customer activity across different channels and deliver predictive analytics. While you optimise your in-house sales force with intelligent features such as an integrated web chat or social customer service, you unlock new potential in terms of field service by integrating a computer telephony integration (CTI) system.
