People are becoming increasingly comfortable with automation in their online interactions and transactions. Automated systems are commonly used in payment processing, customer service and support, bank account management, insurance claims processing and for making routine appointments.
Customer experience (CX) automation goes beyond these automated systems to fully customize and personalize each customer’s unique experience. By effectively tailoring each individual customer’s experience to match their needs and capabilities, businesses and organizations are fostering customer loyalty which translates into long-term customer value.
